Atmosphere and Action Is Great!
This is like playing an early 90s Image comic book. Everything is thick with profanity and insanity and bravado with cyberpunk drifting into bio-punk to the point that nobody is entirely human anymore in body or mind. Everything has a 'super cool' name too (your gun is called The Triggermortis) The gameplay itself is a third person isometric exploration game. I say exploration because the combat is a little shaky and surprisingly not that common: boiling down the lining up a crosshair on an enemy and squeezing the trigger until they die. The main show is running around, jumping, clambering up things looking for secrets and power ups and ways forward. The way forward is usually a near mystery. You can find the locations you can transfer map to map with pretty easily ( big glowing white symbols) but there's NO MINI-MAP so if you don't have a good memory you might even start drawing one out. There's no tutorial so you'll need to draw on inherent PC gamer know-how to figure out what you can do and how, but luckily your options are limited. The real draw here is the edge-lord story, the snarky voice acting, the quite pretty looking levels, and the thumping techno soundtrack. Combat is infrequent and imprecise. Traversal can be frustrating. But there's enough personality to enjoy throughout the experience and plenty of online support for this cult classic. Come for Lotos and Dumaine and their wacky adventures through cyberworld.
