Includes Syndicate and the American Revolt expansion.
In the dark and twisted cities of tomorrow, corporate syndicates compete for global dominance. But the boardroom deals and corporate takeovers of the future look very different from today: they are lead by marketing directors who manage teams of half-men, half-machine cyborgs with no conscience and plenty of guns.
You are an ambitious marketing director in the Syndicate, hand-picked to lead a team of cyborg mercenaries. You work in the problem-solving department and you are damn good at "taking care" of problems. Some might say that violence is not the answer but you know better. There here are hardly any problems that you can't solve with a well-placed bullet. Collateral damage in the local population and infrastructure during the “negotiations” is, as always, acceptable. After all, what would you expect form the dystopian futuristic world run by mega-corporations?
Syndicate is Bullfrog’s masterpiece of a game in which you aren’t saving the world or protecting innocents. You just make sure that your employers get what they want. At your disposal are four cyborg agents, an impressive arsenal of weapons and gadgets, and a massive selection of cybernetic upgrades. You are free to unleash this power on a highly interactive map where you can blow up buildings, steal cars, light trees on fire, or just shoot stuff. Produced by Peter Molyneux himself, Syndicate is the essence of cyberpunk and, with its great music, stylized visuals, and mind-blowing atmosphere, it has earned its place among the best games of all time. Make sure to check out the game that secured Bullfrog's place in game development hall of fame.
Not played this since the version on my A1200 and it's every bit as good as I remember. Controls took a little memory-jogging, and remembering P for pause, not Esc was a sanity-saver. But regardless, still an excellent game. Kudos to Bullfrog and GOG.
I was playing this game back 1993 and enjoyed it a lot. Though a remastered version would be fine, I did loved it again after I played through.
Yes, there are lacking features and the pathfinding sometimes is troublesome, but a game fitting in the 640kb and worked like this one was a masterpiece of Bullfrog.
One advice: if DOSBox freezes in the result screen, just tab out of the game and go back to fullscreen, game continous this way. Happened about 20+ times.
Syndicate is one of those games that inspires, as do all great pieces of art - and surely Syndicate is nothing if not a work of pure artistic genius.
I remember it captivating me in the same way as Ridley Scott's immortal Blade Runner did, and indeed the two are set in similiar (if not the same) dystopian futures.
The visuals of the techno-noir cityscapes still hold up, while the perfectly fitting, incredibly moody synth melodies will have you immersed, and amazed.
To make a long review short - this is one game, no matter what level of gamer you are, that must be played.
and on that note...
Great Game!!! Complete and still entertaining if a little bit dated. My old copy of the game hasn't run for years I'm so happy to have found it again. In this day and age of Monetization
it's good to know GOG is around to provide Great Games, DRM Free just like the Good Old Days.
