Includes Syndicate and the American Revolt expansion.
In the dark and twisted cities of tomorrow, corporate syndicates compete for global dominance. But the boardroom deals and corporate takeovers of the future look very different from today: they are lead by marketing directors who manage teams of half-men, half-machine cyborgs with no conscience and plenty of guns.
You are an ambitious marketing director in the Syndicate, hand-picked to lead a team of cyborg mercenaries. You work in the problem-solving department and you are damn good at "taking care" of problems. Some might say that violence is not the answer but you know better. There here are hardly any problems that you can't solve with a well-placed bullet. Collateral damage in the local population and infrastructure during the “negotiations” is, as always, acceptable. After all, what would you expect form the dystopian futuristic world run by mega-corporations?
Syndicate is Bullfrog’s masterpiece of a game in which you aren’t saving the world or protecting innocents. You just make sure that your employers get what they want. At your disposal are four cyborg agents, an impressive arsenal of weapons and gadgets, and a massive selection of cybernetic upgrades. You are free to unleash this power on a highly interactive map where you can blow up buildings, steal cars, light trees on fire, or just shoot stuff. Produced by Peter Molyneux himself, Syndicate is the essence of cyberpunk and, with its great music, stylized visuals, and mind-blowing atmosphere, it has earned its place among the best games of all time. Make sure to check out the game that secured Bullfrog's place in game development hall of fame.
I really really loved this game in the 90ies. And it still has a lot of appeal. Back then the graphics were really great (even though it is only EGA!), especially the FMVs. They created a Blade Runner atmosphere and together with the game's open world feeling this got me hooked for months, if not years. I played this game over and over. Sure, it has its drawbacks, like the perspective, but I could always look over those. If you can look over some flaws in a game as well this is really worth checking out.
So much style.
So much epic coolness.
So many hours my 14-year old self does not wish back.
When I first joined GoG a couple years ago, I believe I actually mentioned this title. It is one of the coolest good old games I can think of, but slightly trickier than most at getting to run in Dosbox. I tried several iterations and still couldn't quite get it down... So excited to get it running smoothly.
My personal favourite thing about this game? Persuadotrons. Heh heh heh
Equipping an entire team, amassing civilian armies, and persuading the fuzz to do your dirty work for you is absolutely priceless. Doesn't hurt to recruit your rivals' team members for "backups" either.
Don't neglect your research!!!
This game is one of the best games I ever played for last 30 years its old school classic. In 1993 it was total hit and I spend countless hours just the level of detail and possibilities u have in this great game are staggering. For people who never played it imagine you start as a single country in map of the world and you attacking other countries 50 all together to gain more power money etc.. with more defeated countries you have more money to start developing better weapons armor or even biomechanic-organs like better bigger heart for your agents which they can run faster than a car. I wish someone can just make exact copy with better graphics and some kind of story because I cant get enough of it even after 30 years !!!
I can tell why this game was as popular as it was in its day, and for what it's worth, it still holds up as a playable game, as long as you've read the manuel of course.
However, issues crop up almost immediately; bad pathfinding, hitscan enemies, bad ai escorts, broken missions scripts and other little details that show this games age. Having said that, it's a classic for a reason and definitely worth a few bucks if you have the patience for this sort of game.
