Introduction:
The Turing Test is an [email protected] game made by Bulkhead Interactive, released on August 30, 2016, as a timed console exclusive. The Turing Test is a first-person puzzle game centered around an engineer named Ava working for the ISA (International Space Agency) on Europa. Gameplay and puzzles focus on altering energy and interacting with cameras/robot to open doors.

With a full puzzle guide, the game can be completed quickly; in about 2 hours. Although I would personally recommend that players experience the game the way it was intended, by figuring out the puzzles for themselves, resorting to a guide if they find themselves stuck. An initial first playthrough will take anywhere from 4-5+ hours depending on the player, and would then require players to mop up the 7 optional puzzles afterwards; if they were missed.

New Game:
This is the only game mode within the game, alongside some audio/video options available in the menu. Start a "New Game" from the main menu or "Continue" if you leave the game and come back another time. You can also use "Chapter Select" to pick up at the beginning of a chapter if you wish. Completing the game will automatically grant you 8/15 achievements for 550, and can be done within 3-6+ hours depending on speed and puzzle skill.

Optional Puzzles:
The game also has 7 optional puzzles; one for every chapter. They are not required for game progression, although they can be completed during your first playthrough or mopped up using chapter/sector select after completing the game. Please view the individual achievements for further help with these.

Conclusion:
The Turing Test is a short and unique first-person puzzle game experience. It can be completed rather quickly, and there are no hard achievements standing between you and the completion. So enjoy your time with the game, because it'll be over before you know it!

The game has a total of 7 optional puzzles; one for each chapter. The solutions can be found below:

Optional Puzzle 1 - Sector A7 - [0:03]
To solve this puzzle, put the orbs in Column 3, Row 2 & Column 5, Row 3 to open the door, and walk inside.

Optional Puzzle 2 - Sector B16 - [0:54]
To solve this puzzle, just walk across the bridge very slowly as to not activate the alarm, then pull the energy over to open the door.

Optional Puzzle 3 - Sector C26 - [1:37]
To solve this puzzle, use the energy boxes to block the camera from seeing you if you were to be standing at the door. If the camera doesn't see you, the door will open and you can go inside.

Optional Puzzle 4 - Sector D36 - [3:43]
To solve this puzzle, pull the orb, and slowly throw the box down the stairs. As it rolls, go through the door on your left, and follow the hallway. Use the energy to open the door, and with the box on the push pad, the final door will already be open.

Optional Puzzle 5 - Sector E46 - [4:44]
Solution 1 - First Door: Green + Green, Second Door: Purple + Green, then pull the blue orb. Go back to the first room and do First Door: Purple + Purple, Second Door: Blue, Third Door (right): Green + Green + Green.
Solution 2 - First Door: Green + Green, Second Door: Purple + Green, Third Door: Green + Purple + Blue. The blue in the final door must be pulled from the middle room, and it will shut the door behind you.

Optional Puzzle 6 - Sector F56 - [6:59]
This puzzle requires some basic knowledge of boolean logic gates, and how they work. The symbols can be found below:

Legend:
V - Or
∧ - And
⊕ - Either or (but not both)
¬ - Negation (true if condition is false)

You can solve the conditions of each room to make the entire gate true or use the video to the quick solutions to each room and some explanations of how the mechanics work.

Optional Puzzle 7 - Sector G66 - [11:43]
To solve this, use the box to block the door, and shoot the energy through the gap created, opening the room.
