Before man climbed down from the trees to shop in megastores and drink cappuccino, before the Earth wadded itself into a cool blue ball, before the Moon even existed, there was the Island. The Island, a massive fragment of a long-lost planet, hurtling blindly through space. Upon the surface of this paradise wanders the giant, Kabuto. Little does Kabuto know that the Island was home to others before him. In the oceans, there dwells a matriarchal race called the Sea Reapers. In their pride, they created Kabuto, as a defense against intruders. But Kabuto became conscious of himself, his loneliness, his pain - and he went berserk.
Space castaways, the Meccs piloted their ship through space, looking for their missing friends. If you haven’t guessed already, they ended up on the Island. Faced with yet another unscheduled layover while on their way to Planet Majorca, the Meccs decide to make the best of their temporary home. Just their luck - the natives are already embroiled in their own little war, and the Mecc visitors are most unwelcome!
Meccaryns... Sea Reapers... Kabuto... One island isn’t big enough for the three of them.

Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
This is first person shooter with best singleplayer ever. I play it sometimes for all that years I have it. Multiplayer is fun too, but only with 5 and more people, and it is not that addictive and there are very few maps. So you quit with multiplayer it after few weeks :)
I bought this game a few months ago and REALLY enjoyed it. The game-play is great and varies greatly with each race. You play as the technological, rifle and jet-pack wielding mechs, the magical, spell wielding princess "Delphi" or the wrestling giant kabuto.
The variation in game play is truly impressive, from playing as a sole mech to leading a strike group of several mechs. Protecting and building a base to gain access to more weapons or spells. Wreaking fiery destruction as the princess while teleporting into groups of enemies and striking them down with a sword or competing in jetski competitions. Finally you can wreak havoc as the giant kabuto, raising a brood of carnivorous children, punting enemies into the sea and performing modified wrestling moves.
The humour and voice acting in the game is great, playing as the mechs in particular was truly an entertaining experience.
I can't really remember the music, though this says more about how engrossing the game play is than any negative comment about the music. The default graphics are somewhat dated but there are a variety of mods out there that improve this, I will link to a site below. Regarding multiplayer, I never went online with Citizen Kabuto so I can't comment.
My only negative comment I can think of is that the base building seemed under-developed and a bit repetitive. However it by no means made me frustrated or detracted much from playing the game.

When I've played this game for the first time, I've got my mouth wide open and soon I was laughing like an idiot. This game is one of the best games in the world and many says that this was the first game that defined the genre, it's only a shame that it never gets the proper awards. Thrilling but damn funny, this is what should a game look like.
