I get a bit nervous playing narrative games where none of the characters are humans, even when they’re heavily anthropomorphized. When there’s no human character, it can be difficult to ground the story into something relatable. Primordia, the first adventure by Wormwood Studios, mostly succeeds in overcoming this potential pitfall despite every character being a robot. Some dastardly puzzles do get in the way, as well as some uneven characterizations , but it’s still a worthy play for those who like steampunk sci-fi.
