Gamehelper's "maj013" reveals this rather reluctant review re Voyage, for which an overall scoring of 6.8 out of 10 is awarded...
Voyage is about as classic as an adventure gaming experience can get. It’s visually stunning, the puzzles are logical and sound, and the overall challenge is healthy, but not obscene. Yes, Voyage hits all the expected marks when it comes to an adventure title, and that is part of why I found it to be a bit disappointing. With games like Still Life using edgy subject matter for their plots, and other titles breaking the point and click mold in an attempt to make players feel more involved, it’s somewhat sad to see a game with such potential take the safe route of tried and true. Still, that said, Voyage is a solid, well done, enjoyable game with which any fan of the genre will be well pleased. It doesn’t rewrite the book, but it does what it sets out to do, and it does it well.
