A sci-fi FPP logic puzzle game by Bulkhead Interactive, a studio founded by the creators of Pneuma: Breath of Life. The story takes place an unspecified number of years in the future, when scientists discover a seemingly harmless alien life form on Jupiter's moons. You play as an astronaut named Ava Turing, whose task is to examine the new species, and who ends up finding more than she expected.
The Turing Test for PC and XONE is an FPP logic puzzle game. It was developed by Bulkhead Interactive, founded by the creators of Pneuma: Breath of Life, and published by Square Enix.
The story takes place in an unspecified future, sometime after humanity discovered alien life forms on Europa, Jupiter's fourth biggest moon. They seem simple and absolutely harmless, but humans are still cautious about the discovery.
During the campaign, you play as an astronaut and an International Space Agency Engineer named Ava Turing. She is sent to Europa to further examine the new species. However, she ends up discovering much more than she had expected.
The Turing Test for PC and XONE belongs to the FPP logic puzzle genre, popularised by the Portal series. You view everything from Ava's perspective, and while the control model may resemble that of many FPS games, there's absolutely no combat. The gameplay focuses mostly on solving puzzles.
Most of the puzzles require making use of a device that allows you to manipulate energy and transfer it from object to object. Sometimes you also need to use various mechanisms and intelligent machines, as well as perform occasional platform challenges, where a good reflex comes in handy.

Game Ratings for The Turing Test Video Game.
TheSixthAxis: 8 / 10 by Dave Irwin
It’s easy to say that The Turing Test gets a passing grade. Lots of thought has clearly gone into how the story plays out, while the puzzles are designed to teach the player without overtly telling you how a new gameplay mechanic works. Little details at the end of each zone and side puzzle flesh out just what’s going on, while the puzzles will test your logical thinking. It’s not without its flaws, but it’s certainly worth a look at for those wanting to scratch that First Person Puzzle itch.
IGN: 7 / 10 by Marty Sliva
As someone who loves games like Portal and The Witness, The Turing Test definitely scratched that familiar puzzle itch, even if it fails to scratch more than the surface of most of its ideas. Its mechanics are solid but largely unoriginal, and its themes and world-building are genuinely great. And while it never reaches the originality and heights of its inspirations, it still manages to deliver an interesting world with one heck of a twist.
Push Square: 7 / 10 by Kell Andersen
The Turing Test is both a thoughtful meditation on the implications of artificial intelligence, and a competent first person puzzler. Its systems are clever, its graphics make for unambiguous play, and its mechanical focus on logic is satisfying. Structural and pacing issues are certainly present, but they aren't egregious enough to meaningfully detract from the experience.
