Selected Articles
- "DigiTales Interactive has created a sci-fi whodunit hit with Between Horizons. Not only are the players tasked with solving an intricate investigation, but they are also thrown into a narrative that they shape through difficult choices that, once made, must be seen through to the end. It is a must-have game for anyone who loves mysteries and science fiction."
- Dean Waxman, Adventure Gamers - "Between Horizons is a noirish detective game set on a starship on a mission to found a new colony. With tight game mechanics, excellent writing, and a superb soundtrack, this is a story that is well worth your time. Just remember that you’ll need to put your thinking cap on to solve some of the games trickier cases."
- Jack Curran, Movies Games And Tech - "Nothing middling about this stellar sci-fi pixel art investigative mystery from the creators of Lacuna."
- Johnny Nys, Adventure Game Hotspot - "Lacuna is a wonderfully tense hard-boiled story set in a gorgeous jazzpunk future. Its mysteries will make you work for the answers, and will even let you fail, but either way the payoff is a sense of accomplishment that few other narrative puzzlers provide. 9/10"
- Drew Onia, Adventure Gamers - "It doesn't take a gumshoe to tell that Lacuna is a stellar, Noir-inspired adventure, that is absolutely worth investigating further. 8.5/10"
- Blake Grundman, PC Invasion - "Lacuna isn’t the first 2D noir detective game I’ve played, or even the second, but it’s undeniably the best one I’ve come across. 8/10"
- Jake Arias, Killapenguin - "An intricately crafted, perfectly paced and engrossing experience that places the story front and centre."
- Rowen Cameron, Indie Game Website
