"Event[0] is a game about building a personal relationship with a machine. You type messages into a computer, and Kaizen answers. As in any relationship, you experience gratitude, disappointment, and sometimes jealousy. It is by working through fears and anxieties of your virtual companion that you will find your way back to Earth." "In a world where humankind has embraced artificial intelligence, you are stranded on an abandoned spaceship."

DestructoidNic RowenSep 20169/10There are plenty of games out there that you can beat, speed-run, and master. There are very few you can talk to. Don’t sleep on the opportunity.

WccftechChris WrayOct 20168.5/10Event[0] is an incredibly interesting game. Set on a small but incredibly detailed space ship and featuring an incredibly unique character, in the AI Kaizen. It will test your brains and your empathy, as well as your patience. Will you argue with Kaizen? Will you be friendly? There's so much to do, puzzles to solve and the space to explore.

ZTGDDrew LeachmanOct 20166.5/10Event[0] is an interesting game with a very interesting concept. Think of it like HAL 9000, but much more limited in scope and threat.

GamingTrendZach FaberSep 201665/100Event [0] is a fun and interesting exploration game. Its use of conversation to progress the story is one of the more unique things that I have seen in recent memory. It is a little short, but the ability to get a different ending lengthens the game. While the game does feel like it is missing something in its story, the overall experience is memorable and enjoyable.
