Steam review snapshots

The story follows Tessa Carter, a research expedition leader whose ship crashed on an unknown planet, causing her to exit the cryosleep…
Nautical
It’s probably one of the most cinematic point & click experiences I’ve had, filled with beautifully hand-drawn video cutscenes and ample dialogue…
Hand-Drawn
The mystery deepens when she reaches her destination only to find an abandoned intergalactic station, overtaken by wild vegetation.
Narrative Mystery
The aspect in which [i]Monolith[/i] shines is the enigmatic atmosphere that it conveys and the strong cinematic component of the game.
