"This game can be played by any patient member of the family, and it should appeal to almost anyone interested in thinking through a game."
"All the puzzles have the True Way of Surreal Puzzles, which is that nobody explains the rules, but if you fiddle with them, you realize there's only one way the rules could go."
Preview by Ralph Lombreglia includes interview Howard Cushnir, co-author of Obsidian. [The Atlantic]
Rated 96/100 by Bob Mandel. "...probably the very best game I have ever played..."
[4/5] Review by Jim Brumbaugh. "The parts of the game that are strong (like the graphics) are very strong, and the parts that are weak (like the plot and some gameplay elements) are quite weak, which unfortunately keeps Obsidian from being an exceptional game."
"It is more a series of well integrated logic puzzles based around the premise of intelligent technology running riot rather than a traditional adventure game that tells a story." By Gordon Aplin
Rated 8.6/10. "From beginning to end, Obsidian is an entertaining, surreal romp." By Tim Soete
