In an attempt to mitigate preconceived annoyances found within the point-and-click genre, A Rite from the Stars ends up feeling relatively barebones when compared to its contemporaries. There's a strong sense of identity and the non-linear approach to progression adds a degree of novelty to each playthrough, but there's a distinct lack of an identifiable difficulty curve, alongside some rather hit or miss puzzles. A Rite from the Stars is worth playing through at least once, if only to appreciate how rich Makoan culture is, but it fails to improve upon the point-and-click genre in any substantial way.
