About Filament

About this game

The truth is out there. Somewhere.

Board The Alabaster, one of The Filament Corporation’s flagship research vessels, and try to wrestle control back from a mysterious complication which left the ship locked down and the crew missing.

With only the help of Juniper, the ships stricken pilot, face fiendishly difficult puzzles that will push you to the limit in a bid to uncover what happened to the crew and why they disappeared.

A single-player game with complex, yet ultra-addictive puzzles, challenge yourself to board the Alabaster, then challenge yourself to leave.

Freely explore the ship, solving over 300 challenging and varied puzzles. Approach them at your leisure, in (almost) any order you like.

As you survey the ship and solve puzzles, you will be in constant contact with Juniper. Learn more about her, her crew, and what happened as she opens up to you.

Search crew logs, messages, records, as well as personal items and knick-knacks found around the ship on your quest for the truth as to what has happened aboard The Alabaster. Learn who the crew were, and maybe in doing so, find out why they left.

Filament is a neat puzzle game that is really fun at first but eventually becomes very meh. It is kinda sad that i cannot recommend filament, i remember playing the demo ages ago and loving it. But after the first few puzzles, the game just becomes less and less interesting. the puzzle mechanics never really change much, everything feels like more of the same but with extra steps. Solving the puzzles is not satisfying anymore but frustrating and a lot of trial-and-error.

An amazing puzzle game that got me addicted

This game is a jewel, as an amateur of puzzle game I was glad to give a try to this game and what a game it was! The concept is simple you're an astronaut and your goal is to light up every stone to open the door to the next level, it is way more complex as you'll reach a certain point of the game, but don't be discouraged while some puzzle will make you struggle don't feel forced to keep on the same puzzle as there is many more and also if you quit a puzzle at a specific room and then comeback later you won't need to redo it all from the start The atmosphere, the decor, the music, everything is on point to make you feel relaxed and immersed into those puzzles As a final note, I recommend this game to every fan of puzzle and I can guarantee you, this game will make you addicted to it
