I'm around an hr into Somerville, a little over half way and you can ignore what I said a few comments back, now I've had time with this game I can whole heartedly say it's a disappointment. It feels at all times that I'm fighting with the controls, grab points constantly failing to register, the camera feels just bad on top of obtuse puzzles that feel like they're on a RNG slider of the solution works or not. The game looks pretty but everything else from the controls to the puzzle testing, the camera the screen jittering/tearing make it feel so obvious this game needed more time in development. I truly loved Limbo and INSIDE with the latter being one of my faves of all time but this, I can't even recommend unless you want a quick 2hr frustrating 1000G. 4/10
Edit: PC gamers review nails it perfectly
