good replay value, one of the best level designs, immersive , the music stays with you

Deus Ex is one of the early immersive sims, and well-known to be one of its best. You play as an augmented anti-terrorism agent JC Denton, who along with his agency, tried to stop a terrorist attack, but discovers a conspiracy that complicates things. Are the "terrorists" right after all? Is his agency actually working for the bad guys? Either way, JC must follow this mystery to its end. He is assisted by his friends, both inside and outside the agency, as well as his augmentations, which makes him more than the average human. Like most imsim and RPGs, you'll have multiple ways to complete objectives. Do you wanna help other characters? Go the direct path swarming with enemies, or choose a less direct, but quieter route? Each route has its own pluses and minuses, but overall exploration is encouraged, you should look around before deciding what to do. Going lethal/nonlethal doesn't really have an impact on the story other than some dialogue changes early in the game, but I do find going nonlethal more satisfying. If you come after playing the newer, prequel Deus Ex games, the gameplay might feel a bit outdated, but story-wise its just as fun as those games. It's basically a continuation of the story as well, and the behind-the-scenes villain takes a more active role here. If you like those games, imsims, or cyberpunk-themed games, be sure to give this old but gold title a try.

Once in a lifetime game
