First, a little background on the Turing Test. It wasn’t a game, but an actual test devised by Alan Turing in 1950 to help distinguish humans from machines. The game has a similar principle: You wake up on a ship that landed on Jupiter’s moon Europa. Everyone is missing and the ships computer TOM (HAL 9000 inspired, 2001: A Space Odyssey) has awakened you from cryostasis. The game is heavily story driven, but it is a story that is worth sitting through. Along the way, you will clear puzzles that only a human would understand — there are references to Alan Turing throughout the game, but not in an annoying way.

The puzzles seem to be inspired by Portal, with a majority of them requiring you to place a few boxes or turn on/off a few switches with the gun provided in the prologue of the game. Along the way, you end up bonding with TOM, whose voice acting is brilliantly done. There are lots of optional puzzles that are quick and reap decent rewards.
The game isn’t very long; it takes around four to five hours to complete everything. The puzzles aren’t that challenging, but the storyline and voice acting make it a game worth experiencing.
