The Enigma Machine has a solid, page-turning plot. The way it embraces unfolding technology (and in a unique visual style) is something I’d like to see more of. But the marriage of story and visuals with the gameplay is mixed. Some successful puzzles are let down by in-between, squinting-at-the-screen, bits; this is probably one to skip if you’re playing on a Switch Lite. But if you have affection for the early 32-bit era, give The Enigma Machine a shot. It’s not much of a commitment in terms of funds or time.

Critic reviews
- 7.0I’d go as far to say that it is totally worthy in terms of value. There are problems with text size and some big glitches when playing in the first person, however the inventiveness and story win over these misgivings. In all, The Enigma Machine provides an experience that stays with you way after the game has finished.
