Captivating cyberpunk story
Something ominous is going on in the city-state of Newton. A mindjacker copies the minds of experts from widely differing fields and kills them. Newton's central AI assigns the case to Regis, an aging detective with scientific past, and Lao, an ever-sarcastic young tech wiz. Mysteries pile up. Someone starts to blackmail Regis. Central maintains that something Regis and Lao saw couldn't happen. And why on Earth would anyone want to assassinate Mandala, an unimportant unemployed VR addict? If you want your cyberpunk point & click adventures to excel in storytelling, you've just found the right game for you. If you play them for the puzzles, read on, but I practically beg you anyway: give Technobabylon a chance! It certainly deserves one. + Fantastic storytelling. Toward the end, I was on the edge of my chair, even though it's a P&C adventure - a game you play at your own pace! And I still get goosebumps whenever I think of the game's finale. + Real cyberpunk substance there, not just an action-filled story on a futuristic stage set. + Pixel graphics done right, giving the art a hand-drawn feel. + The game's divided into self-contained chapters with limited maps and doesn't flood your inventory, eliminating the usual adventure "use something you forgot you'd collected on the other side of Earth ages ago" problem. - Some of the puzzles are just bad design (and some very nice - but that should be a given in P&C games). Thanks to the previous point, it never stalls you for too long, but it's still the reason why I can't give Technobabylon five stars with clear conscience - even though I'd so much love to! + Polished. Minimum quirks, no bugs. + More than just the sum of its parts. The story, graphics, and music create a wonderful atmosphere that elevates the experience. Verdict: Do you like cyberpunk? Do you like stories and ideas that keep you returning to them in your mind long after you've finished the game? You. Should. Play. Technobabylon.
