Excelent game

It is old, it's 1080p, but oh man it is a great game and a great experience. It's satisfying to combine functions and to try different playing styles.

Best game ever

Seriously, best game ever. The style, gameplay, creativity, music, sound... everything. ... I struggle to find the words to describe how much and why I love this work of art. It is, without any doubt, my favorite game.

Ecellent game :D

I totally dig the sleek cyberpunk world, and the unfolding romance :D. This has been a lucky find.

Kinda breaks my heart

I loved Bastion, and was exposed to the Transistor soundtrack before buying the game. My hopes were way up. The opening is excellent: very smooth and natural. But it's a slow downhill from there. The ability customization UI, in particular, is incredibly awkward. There's no logical flow to it, so I end up just clicking randomly until I get what I want. In addition, the absence of a minimap or any other indicator of where you've been before make it difficult to pick up again after not playing for a few days. This is a case of lame-duck game mechanics leaning on strong graphics and sound to support themselves.

A real cyberpunk game

It is a touching story with a good atmosphere, suits everyone who wants to try the cyberpunk style game but do not have proper devices for Cyberpunk 2077.
