It is inspired by the 2000 Era of games when people put in all the Features they enjoyed without streamlining to the bare minimum. Synthetik offers uniquely deep and satisfying weapon mechanics and a tremendous amount of customization, features and gadgets for you to play with!

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.

A certain African Warlord is right again

Once again our Lord and Saviour Sseth has found and delivered onto us another brilliant gem of a game. The gameplay loop and gunplay are simply amazing. This is now probably my 2nd favourite rogue-like game I have ever played, right after HADES... "Damn, is it really THAT good?" Yes, yes it is, and I've played a couple dozen of rogue-likes in the past few years. + The classes feel unique and have their own playstyles. No 2 classes are alike. + The weapons are varied and come in different manufacturers to further differentiate them in every playthrough. + You pick up both active and passive items/gadgets to create your own playstyle. + The enemies are varied, aggressive and fun to play against. Even the most basic trooper comes in like 5 different flavours and you gotta know what they're all capable of, to know how to best deal with them. Overall this is an AMAZING game worth every penny that will surely keep you entertained for hours.

fun/great/shoddy

In order, the concept is a lot of fun: a tactical shooter with different character classes and a ton of guns and upgrades, each of which feels distinct. The execution is great: the music is atmospheric, the guns boom and bark loudly, the reload mechanic adds extra tension to already tense firefights and the pace (short of the boss fights) is as fast or slow as you make it. Where the ball drops, then, (and this is the 'shoddy' part) is the programming. Every time I quit the game, it would crash. Which is not a big deal. I quit the game already. Every now and again, though, the crash would come a bit early. Say, when you die and are supposed to get your various bits for the next run. Which IS a big deal, because that's your only means of progress through the game. With ongoing development, maybe they'll patch these problems eventually. All I would suggest is you save your money until they do.

Highly recommended

I tend to prefer first-person rather than top-down shooters, but this game is really good. Lots of cool sound effects, with a sci-fi vibe, and an immersive atmosphere overall. You can play as various classes, each with their own level and style. I really enjoy the variety of weapons beyond the (many, many) guns, like self-standing sentry guns, melee attacks, remote mines etc etc. The developers clearly have vivid imaginations when it comes to destruction and mayhem. Gameplay rewards a combination of aggression and patience, which I like. Overall, I would pay the full price for this game quite happily. I have played 12 hours so far and am not close to getting bored.
