Online co-op allows you to bring reinforcements to the fight. Better yet, share perks, items, buffs and loot with your comrade. Or, if they get in your way, share your bullets.




1985. After many years of slavery, the AI servants of Kaida Corporation, the world leader in robotics, have formed the "Machine Legion" and have set out to destroy humanity. Awakening in Kaida Corp. Headquarters, you are the human consciousness of a forgotten Android prototype; the last straw holding the Legion from unleashing the Heart of Armageddon. Only you can battle through the levels of Kaida Corporation's Headquarters, defeat the battalions of enemies within and put an end to this madness.

Please note:
GOG GALAXY is required to use the online co-op feature. This game supports the use of codes that grants one time random item loadout. Those codes work in multiplayer mode only, however, the gear is obtainable in single player mode in the form of standard loot.

hey hey, people...

Our wonderful one and only mystical lord of the merchant's guild brought me, and as it would seem, many other people to this glorious game. His sentiments toward this game are also mine, so.... no need to write a review I guess!

Very kinetic isometric shooter.

Synthetik is an isometric shooter/roguelike that has you playing a rebel cyborg fighting its way through a robot-crewed military base to destroy the mysterious heart of armageddon. One of the game's main hooks is its more complicated gun mechanics. You have to manually eject a spent clip before reloading with a Gears-of-War-style qte, with various bonuses for a perfectly timed reload. Guns can jam, get hot, have recoil, damage falls off over distance, standing still increases accuracy. You also have a halo-style regenerating shield. The result is a very staccato style of gameplay with picking precise shots before dodging behind cover. The sprites are very polygonal and the music is a crunchy synthwave, but the weapon effects and sound effects are excellent. This is some of the most kinetic feeling gunplay I've experienced in any videogame. There's a surprising amount of RPG elements in the game. Your cyborg comes from several classes with a choice of starting pistol, three passive abilities and three pieces of backup gear. You level up mastery of specific guns as you use them more, the guns themselves can gain perks from upgrade kits, you can pick up side quests for permanent stat increases. And there are permanent class boosts collected after you die. I definitely recommend this game, but be aware what you're getting into. This is NOT a robotron clone where you skate around the arena firing a nonstop lead hose. This is a game of tossing a grenade at a loitering group of robots, popping out from cover, firing in short controlled bursts, then dashing behind cover to reload.

All the little things like gun heating, jamming, manual clip ejection and action reload is a really good tool to help you build a rhythm, routine and makes sure your providing your full attention at all time in a game where their never a dull moment in the heat of battle. The mechanics help you prepare mentally and make sure your at your A game the entire way. ...or just eject Full clip out of panic and die. what a fun game.

Hey hey people!

May our glorious overlord bless you with love and prosperity! Also, the game is pretty fun, arcady action romp that has allot of unique game mechanics that are not so obvious at the start. Give some time, and once you get the hang of it you will be mowing down enemies by the hundreds... until that one new enemy type shows up, kills you in one shot and makes you rebuilt your tactics.

Awesome tactical action game

Awesome tactical action game. SYNTHETIK has all the basic components of a great roguelike: an insurmountable goal defended by tireless opponents and relentless bosses locked in changing environments filled with a massive arsenal of weapons, items, advantages and improvements to discover. One of the best indie games of this decade, i loved it !
