This is a fun game. From the head-popping visuals, to the fan-service nostalgia, you get a second-chance at your life as Alex Murphy, a.k.a. Robocop! The story is simple, and straight-forward (much like the movie). The gameplay is sometimes slowed down by the 'public defender' portion of the game where you get to issue tickets! Fire-hydrant blocking vandals, and doped-up drug fiends all get the same justice... Well... sort of... one type gets a stern talking-to and the other gets shot in the face. Oh, and the game randomly crashes to desktop after cut-scenes.
A skittering clank slithers to your right and then above you. A quick look at your motion detector shows it's moving away from you. Your wrench accidentally bangs against the bulkhead; thudding footsteps race towards you. You have no weapons to defend yourself. Your adreneline shocks your system; you race from room to room, desparate for a place to hide. Instead, you find a dead-end. You crouch and throw yourself under a nearby workstation. The footsteps pass you by! Heart thundering, you agonize about taking a glance at your motion detector; it's so loud. In the corner of your vision, you see an ugly, utilitarian android stalking towards you. In seconds, he will discover you and promise death. The footsteps thud behind you. Alien: Isolation blends atmosphere, story, and fear to cast you into a truly immersive experience. You are never truly safe. Save points will not save with an enemy nearby. Hiding spots do not provide full cover and alert their use to your pursuer. You must use your wits, skill, and ingenuity to craft traps and plan your way to escape Sevastopol station.
