Encased: A Sci-Fi Post-Apocalyptic RPG
Description
A classic isometric RPG set in a dystopian enviroment allowing you to fight enemies, explore the hostile wasteland, level up your character and join one of the forces in the ruined world that survived through the horrific Incident, isolated from the rest of the world.
Start the game in one of the five divisions of the CRONUS Corporation — Wings, each with its own features, mechanics, and game options.
Go on a one way trip under the Dome from which you cannot return. Avoid radiation and anomalies, fight mutated animals and search for unique artifacts.
Start the game as an ordinary company employee and become the driving force behind the story that takes place before, during, and after the disaster that became known as the Incident.
After getting familiar with the world, dive into an open world full of freedom and danger. The old order is gone, now five powerful factions rule over the wasteland. Join one of them or be a lone wolf. Change the future of the Dome and its inhabitants or go your own way.
Threaten your enemies out of battle: persuade important people to give you favors. Don't have charisma for that? Then bribe them! Encased story is deep, each quest can be completed differently, depending on your stats and choices and those choices will really matter in the end, thanks to multiple game endings. Kill everyone, be a pacifist or choose anything in-between, the game will adapt to your playstyle.
Level up your own unique character: will you specialise in stealth, melee combat, sniper rifles, psionics or diplomacy? Will you be a lone wolf or a party leader? Or maybe even try to play through the game as low intellect hero? It's all up to you.
Go on a journey and learn dozens of useful abilities like hacking, mechanics, thieving or even driving. Study relics to reveal technological secrets of the Dome and then explore the lands, finding new places, anomalies and rivals. Not all of them will be humans, by the way.
Make difficult decisions: steal, assasinate or help despite any concequences. Build your reputations with one faction or try to please them all, but remember that sometimes compromises are impossible.
Repair and craft: forge robotic armor — Servoshell, build unique guns and upgrade them. Maybe even cook something. After all, you can't survive on an empty stomach.

7/10
Encased can suck you into it for dozens of hours for exploration and complex, difficult battles with various tactics but also leave you frustrated with the way it approaches the story and characters.

7.5/10
Encased is a strategy RPG with lots of depth and options that suffers from stiffness and imbalanced gameplay

9/10
Some jank does not stop Encased from being one of the most ambitious and greatest CRPGs in years.

not a very good game so far
i know its still in development and its not a complete game yet, but still most of the elements in this game are just not good, there is not a lot of depth to the game compared to titles like pillars of eternity 1 and 2, or underrail which is an absolute masterpiece.. the game is simply not satisfying. the dialogue is childish and cringy, they dont do a very good job creating a world through language, much else explainig the world they are trying to convey. the combat is awful, if you didnt pick the black wing then forget about having a chance at survival in this game.. i have my doubts about the psionic build they have tried to introduce. the game seems to have some amount of potential, and i do hope they are able to succed, but for now stay as far away from this game as possible...especially for the price theyre asking(which will increase) for a non AAA unfinished indie title.

but the game feels like an EA
think the story was good, but the game feels like an EA bug and things that feel like it was on the way in the game but removed. pilot skill but you can only drive the car short distance not on the map. so you buy it in the belief that it is a finished product and notice that it is not finished.

Disapointing boring garbage
This could have been a good game, but it is lame. It feels very half assed and unfinished. A complete let down.

funny
It's wickedly funny and achingly sad in equal measure, a combination that probably won't lend itself to your average dragon-killing story or similar to come down the line. It's a game that wears politics — not necessarily your politics or someone else's, but politics in general — on its sleeve and is extremely sympathetic to people while viciously criticizing any given sector of belief.
