Surprisingly Fun

I purchased this game a while ago while it was on sale. In short, DEX is an impressively immersive side-scrolling RPG game with cyberpunk elements, where you play a female lead in a futuristic setting. The world itself has a lot of depth to it, cross-referencing itself with an ample amount of secondary content that keeps you learning about the world and the NPCs around you. The gameplay itself can seem unimpressive, and appears at first like a standard fit for an internet flash game. But the difference here is the depth and amount of content that DEX contains. The leveling system is solid and balanced, offering different skill trees for different playstyles (Hacking, Fighting, or Shooting, among other secondary skill trees). There are stealth elements in DEX, but they seem almost entirely secondary to the other modes of combat. While the dialogue can at times be cliche or uninteresting, the writing is overall very good, and is more than capable of keeping you in your seat just to see what happens next. When everything is said and done, DEX is truly a great game. Personally, I find that it lacks any real or reasonable replay value (aside from the multiple endings), so you should keep that in mind when purchasing it.

Amazing but too short

This game blends amazing atmosphere, character customization and exploration with a well-told cyberpunk story. The game is intuitive and easy to grasp, even for people who are new to either action-adventures or cyberpunk. The world is so beautifully built that I often walk around the city forgetting that I'm actually playing a 2-D platformer. The amount of choice in the game is very big, from how to fight your battles to what you install into your body. The voice acting is also very well done. Some of the more emotional quests really bring across the desperation or sadness of the characters, simply through the voice acting. Superb, I must say. Even though the game is perfectly linear, I enjoyed all three of my playthroughs immensely due to the atmosphere. My only major problem is that the game is way too short to properly enjoy all of its features. Since the world is totally static, I can say that the amount of customization points you get is actually perfect to make a character that feels complete but not overpowered. However, there is so much to this game that completing the story feels like an introduction. The fact that it ends on a cliff-hanger also does not help. It REALLY feels like there should be a part 2, or like you should be max level after the "final boss" but keep exploring in a different city after the final cutscene. But nope, credits. All in all though, action adventure fans will love this game! Just make sure to explore all the various areas, you will have way more fun than just completing the story.

Surprisingly Epic

From previous reviews, I was expecting a great experience, but nothing too memorable. Wow, was I surprised. This is one of my favorite games of all time. It's solidly done. The best I can do to describe this game is "well-balanced". Not only is the story great, but the sound, art, and atmosphere work incredibly well together to produce a truly believable and immersive world. What's more remarkable is how integrated the gameplay is with this world. Although 2D, your character can interact with most of the enviroment. Not only that, but RPG elements of upgrading your character's abilities are really worth struggling for, as they make a noticable difference (but not too much to make the game too easy). The "mini game" of hacking is also really well done and innovative -- and it's actually one of the more difficult aspects of the game. All in all, I found Dex to be game that truly captures what gaming is about and what is missing in many contemporary AAA titles -- fun.

Didn't expect so much fun

I bought the game in a sale, but I didn't expect too much from it. This feeling remained for some time even while playing, but the game revealed it's story piece by piece and became more and more interesting. It also took me longer to play than I had expected for a title of that price. The creators have put a lot of attention to detail when building the different levels, and that made me enjoy the atmosphere of the game a lot. I play it on the not-yet released Debian Linux 10 (Buster), with a Intel HD3000 GPU on one and a Radeon RX560 GPU on the other computer, both with the free software drivers, and everything works fine there.

Definitely worth playing

Great atmosphere, open-ish world, lots of side quests, captivating cyberpunk story that is not as simple as it may seem at the beginning. The world is full of little details and interesting characters, though it rarely feels like you're on the run from some power. The only thing that I didn't enjoy that much was cyberspace sequences. After you get some upgrades, it becomes a bit easy and monotonous, even though the game designers tried to keep it different. Overall, it is definitely worth playing and exploring this game as much as you can. It is diverse, challenging enough, and there are plenty of details that you will enjoy.
