The 2012 adventure game renaissance continues this fall with what appears to be another point-and-click masterpiece from Wadjet Eye Games.
Crafted by Wormwood Studios, Primordia is a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk adventure about a robot named Horatio, voiced by actor Logan Cunningham of Bastion and Resonance fame, who leaves his home in the city of Metropol to wander the desolate wastelands accompanied by a hovering droid named Crispin Horatiobuilt.
Instead of pounding players over the head with tedious backtracking and illogical trial and error like so many adventure games of yore, Primordia will focus on deep character interaction and puzzles with logical solutions and plenty of exploration. Plus, look at those hand-drawn graphics–yeah it may be a bit old and pixel-fuzzy, but the art design is phenomenal and very distinct in a genre filled with mystery crime thrillers and color fantasy worlds.

After the sad and untimely close of BonusStage, the former staff went on to found VGBlogger.com, and after a short stint as US Site Manager for AceGamez Matt turned his attention to VGBlogger, and to this day is dedicated to making it one of the top video game blogs in all the blogosphere.
Matt is a fair-minded reviewer and lover of games of all platforms and types, big or small, hyped or niche, big-budget or indie. But that doesn't mean he will let poor games slide without a good thrashing when necessary.
