Stationfall
Stationfall offers a lot of solid writing and detailed descriptions that Meretzsky fans have come to expect. The humor this time around is toned down, however - this is a much more "serious" game than Planetfall. Puzzles are more difficult than Planetfall, although most of them have sufficient clues. They are definitely the highlight of the game, especially since there are fewer memorable NPCs this time around. If you enjoy the sci-fi puzzles in Starcross, you will enjoy the ones in this game.
Overall, Stationfall is great game that won't disappoint fans of Planetfall. It won't bring Floyd back, but it does shine with great atmosphere and many good puzzles. The humor is less pronounced, but still permeates much of the game. If you enjoy sci-fi IF titles, you could do far worse than this classic. Highly recommended!
