Reviews for The Talos Principle
Diorex
do not buy on iPad
Controls don’t work. Menu not accessible until you die. Absolutely awful controls. I did not even make it through tutorial before I quit. Tried all the control modes and they get worse. Just because you can port a game does not mean you can do so without play testing. This is the exact reason I dont buy many iPad games… good reviews are not from iPad users…

Still holds up over 10 years later
Even though the game does not include any DLC (Road to Gehenna was released on other platforms in 2015), this version of the game is still a blast to play, even without the QoL updates added for TTP:Reawakened (instant rewind and keep connections, specifically).
