What players say

For what it is, it's an interesting visual novel that certainly follows the mythos of Tron quite well, and despite the game ultimately feeling irrelevant in the overall franchise's narrative, the story contained within is decently interesting and the art is gorgeous, matching the aesthetics of Tron Legacy to a tee. The puzzles are simple and boring, but don't drag the game down too much. Def worth the play you're...

Cool visual novel for Tron fans. Not a lot going on, some interesting world building, doesn't exactly align with the movies (although there's a nod to it in Ares, brief as it may be), but it's got enough replay value, the puzzle mechanic isn't bad and if you don't like it's skippable and honestly it's just really pretty to look at. If you like the series is worth a go :]

I bought this on sale with Catalyst. I know it is a visual novel and meant to be short, but the game felt like an extended tutorial. Like the start to a larger game. As much as I want more Tron, I feel like I could have skipped this.
