Storytelling with a little of RPG in it
Citizen Sleeper is a narrative game desguised as a RPG based on Random Number Generator. Narratively the idea of a real human sell himself to a company that clone his conscience to be imprinted in a machine is really grim. That human simulation is sold only to work for this dystopian intergalatic company, as a machine slave with a glimpse of conscience. The game begins when this machine, called a sleeper, run aways to live a better life than slavery. Its life begin in a spacial station called the Eye. There is when hope begin. The game itself rolls several die each turn, and you can use it to perform actions in the world. Higher the dice, higher the chances the actions will succeed. Meanwhile, the game puts several event clocks running to add anxiety in your decision making - you will work for money, repair itself, eat or try to discover something about the world? Perhaps help others or help yourself, the game leaves you to choose. Straight from the beggining, the game expands itself in several plotlines, with arrays of decisions to make in a time-based "choose wisely because things will happens independently of your choices". So the start of your life as immigrant will be pretty gnarly. In the first half, you can feel that time is urgent and your decisions matter to which people you will address, help or attack. In later half, including the expansion, you be so overpowered that the game pratically turns itself in its Visual Novel part. Don't get me wrong, if you played half the game you are already hooked by its story, universe and characters - that have a relatable personality in sweet moments of self-discovery. Is a visually compenent game with pretty story lines, that will make you wholeheartly begin to wonder about its inhabitants and their stories. May be simplistic somethings, but the love and sweetness are there - and they persist with you for sometime after. Making you wonder where this universe will go in the next game. It was a pleasure to play it.
