    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of this early access title attempts to merge stealth, cyberpunk elements, and fast-paced action reminiscent of Hotline Miami, but suffers from underdeveloped stealth mechanics and slightly clunky combat that detracts from the overall experience. While the game offers a humorous setting and a variety of mechanics, it lacks the depth and complexity found in AAA titles, making it feel more simplified. Despite these shortcomings, the core gameplay remains engaging, particularly with character customization and equipment choices, though improvements in combat and stealth are highly desired.

    • “This early access game is trying to blend stealth, cyberpunk, and Hotline Miami-ish gameplay.”
    • “+challenging gameplay.”
    • “Funny setting and a large number of mechanics you can play with.”
    • “The problem with this game lies in the talked about, but never implemented, stealth mechanics.”
    • “The combat mechanics are just slightly too clunky to feel truly rewarding.”
    • “Please for the love of god improve the stealth mechanics.”
  • story
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story revolves around a mission-driven narrative where players uncover the truth behind their kidnapping while completing various handcrafted tasks for a character known as "old school." As players navigate through the city, they engage with different characters and locations, leading to a final confrontation with the mastermind behind the events. While the storyline is praised for its depth and adventure, some players find the combat mechanics, particularly the use of weapons, to be underwhelming compared to the effectiveness of melee options.

    • “Ultimately, there's a final confrontation with the mastermind behind the events you've uncovered through your missions and your kidnapping, and you'll get to decide what to do.”
    • “It has a great storyline, and the adventure is far more than just trying to stealth your way through some enemies.”
    • “Ultimately, there's a final confrontation with the mastermind behind the things you've uncovered through your missions and your kidnapping, and you'll get to decide what to do.”
    • “It has you visiting people in different locations where you get missions and information to aid your quest.”
    • “We now head to the city and do jobs for old school as we piece together the story of who has done this and why.”
  • graphics
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics are highly praised for their vibrant and colorful low poly style, created using the Unreal Engine 4, which adds charm and nostalgia reminiscent of classic titles like Final Fantasy VII.

Reviewers appreciate how the soundtrack enhances the gaming experience, complementing the unique visual style.

    • “The game is even pretty good aesthetically, which I confess was a bit of a surprise for me... the blocky polygons (usually very much not my thing, I'd prefer 2D pixel art) felt very charming, giving me extremely nostalgic vibes of Final Fantasy VII (likely intentional, but that's just speculation on my part), while the music was shockingly funky and catchy.”

  • humor
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's humor is a standout feature, characterized by a funny setting and a variety of engaging mechanics.

Overall, the humor adds significant enjoyment to the gameplay experience.

    • “The game-related humor in this game is definitely a huge plus for me.”
    • “Funny setting and a large number of mechanics you can play with.”
    • “The game plays like a simplified version of the modern Deus Ex games (Human Revolution et al), but from an isometric perspective, and with writing that's aiming for tongue-in-cheek rather than so serious; its main source of humor is being serious to the point of farce.”
