Description
Responding to the desperate pleas of a mysterious character from another dimension, your soul must enter the dark and futuristic city of Omikron. This is but the beginning of an epic adventure through an increasingly strange and dazzling parallel world. You must solve the ultimate mystery: why are you in Omikron and how can you get out? Think, fight, and interact with awe-inspiring environments to defeat the menacing demons that are trying to stop you. Experience the life in an alternate reality with everything it has to offer--including the secret musical performances by The Dreamers, a band of rebels led by the Omikronian incarnation of David Bowie.

Omikron: The Nomad Soul is a futuristic 3d-action adventure like no other. Combining a deep game plot with adventure, exploration, action, combat and role-playing elements, the Omikron experience will captivate you from the moment you enter the strange and wonderful world beyond our own. Only using all of your combined skills will bring you deliverance from this exotic dimension.



  • Experience "virtual reincarnation", the ability to move directly into the body of the last character you touch before dying.
  • Adventuring at a whole new level, Omikron combines puzzle solving, action, shooting, combat and role-playing elements in a deep and engrossing storyline.
  • Complete freedom to explore a vast city in real-time 3D with hundreds of fully-animated inhabitants and vehicles.

Could have been an awesome game

Controls are terrible. Melee fighting is plain stupid, I don't get how you can botch it so hard after Mortal Combat example. Shootouts are full of cheap shots and strafe is close to useless. Story is great so far (still playing). Puzzles are intuitive.

I am a blind man, she is my eyes.

What happens when you mix the total insanity of David Bowie with the total insanity of David Cage? I have no idea. I still don't know exactly what this is but I still love it. The only thing I have any semblance of sureness about is that I'm pretty sure that David Bowie is actually God.

A nostalgic gem

This game really feels like it combines several games styles in it and it just creates that 80s sci fi world which is so fun to be in.

Great Game!

This game is really great, it's the meeting of several type of game, to help the realism of an open world game in 1999. The music by David Bowie is amazing, I'm a big fan of Bowie, so it's crazy to discover song like that. I think it's my favorite David Cage game, because the universe is one the best ever created in a game

Not sure if it's good or bad

Some people don't like David Cage's games because there isn't enough game in them. On the contrary, I don't like Omikron because it has too much game in it. From the awkward third-person controls; to the arbitrary fighting; to the downright awful FPS gameplay, Omikron is not great. The first-person, final boss battle was so poorly constructed I found myself repeatedly asking if the designer had ever played a first-person shooter before. I wasn't surprised to later learn David Cage doesn't play first-person shooters because they make him motion sick. (To be fair, the inclusion of an FPS component in the game was allegedly at the behest of Eidos, the game's publisher.) Still, there's something endearing about Omikron. Perhaps it's that while poorly implemented, the gameplay is never so frustrating as to get completely in the way of an ontherwise unique world. But there is something endearing about the game as an overwrought cyberpunk epic. Or maybe it's just David Bowie having a seizure.
