A first-person perspective retro-futuristic adventure game, inspired by the 1960s and projects such as The Invincible. Return to Grace has us play a cosmic archeologist. The protagonist discovers an ancient, potentially dangerous AI imprisoned thousands of years ago.
Return to Grace is an adventure game developed by Creative Bytes Studios. This is an indie developer from Canada. The studio previously created the The Vale project.
Return to Grace takes us to a sci-fi universe inspired by retrofuturism straight from the 1960s. The main character of the game is Adie Ito, a space archaeologist. The protagonist discovered an ancient artificial intelligence known as Grace. It once protected the Solar System, and now struggles with a personality split.
Our protégé examines its resting place, trying to find out why the AI was imprisoned thousands of years ago. Additionally, Adie must decide which versions of Grace she will develop a closer relationship with. What path she will follow and how the story told in the game will end depends largely on our choices.
In Return to Grace we watch the action from a first-person perspective (FPP). While traversing retro-futuristic locations, we engage in conversations with various incarnations of Grace, gather valuable clues about AI and events that took place in the past, and also solve a variety of puzzles.
The puzzles involve hacking ancient computer systems and interacting with other elements of the environment. From time to time we have to use a jetpack, which spews flames (allowing us, for example, to access devices hidden behind ice).
The game was designed in such a way that it could be completed in a single evening. The fact that the story can unfold differently, depending on the decisions we make during the game, encourages us to start the adventure again.

“Return to Grace” is not like other games. It takes you on a thrilling journey through space and ancient history.

Screen Rant: 3.5 / 5
Overall, Return To Grace is a solid narrative game set in a wondrous sci-fi location. The core plot will be enough to drive many players for its short run time, especially given its unique setting and visual design. Over time this might lose a little of its luster, but the secrets here are certainly worth uncovering.
