Superb Immersive Sim But it takes some time to get going... For the first few hours of Ctrl Alt Ego, I thought the game was wildly overrated by the immersive sim (Deus Ex, System Shock, Dishonored, etc.) community. The core conceit of being a disembodied consciousness and jumping between different robots, objects, and the like was cool, but the game was highly linear. It felt much more like a puzzle game than an immersive sim, reminding me more of The Talos Principle than System Shock. Which isn't bad, but isn't what I was interested in at that moment. I played through the first few chapters, and put the game down for nearly a year. When I came back to it, I discovered that, oh, the first third of the game is essentially a highly linear tutorial. Once you get past what seems like is going to be the final chapter, the other 2/3rds of the game begins. And this is where the shackles of linearity are removed, and the game really stretches its legs and lets you put the box of tools it gives you to good use. By the end, I was already anticipating when I'll come back again, and attempt a playthrough to hit some of the achievements that I missed (some of which, by their nature, show me that there were quite a few alternatives to what I did). Highly recommended to anyone that thinks an immersive sim that's even less about guns/melee than normal sounds like a good time.

One of the best Immersive sims I have ever played, so many emergent ways to solve problems. If you like Deus Ex or Prey 2017, play this. I just did a play through of prey and wanted to keep scratching that itch. This was maybe even a better experience. Give the Devs your money. I don't review anything but this game is criminally underrated, or at least not popular enough.

A very good imsim with a focus on puzzle solving. The opening is rough and it's easy to bounce off of it, but stick with it and very soon the controls/mechanics start coming together. I really enjoyed a "stealth grenadier" playstyle, loudly killing every enemy I could find without ever being noticed. It's a fun time.

Loved the creativity and personal touch that went into every detail of this game. The gameplay hook is truly innovative, and it made me feel like I was playing the original System Shock for the first time again. Finished my first run the other day and will definitely come back for the extra levels. Kudos to the dev.

A thumbs up is not a recommendation to you, but a 'like' to the developer. The game has NOTHING but im.sim mechanics. Nonetheless, the chapter 7 (Conscious Robot Services) is WORTH completing the first 6, it's really good. (Severe difficulty; no leveling - aeronautics only; unidentified play) Gameplay: combat mechanics 3/10 stealth 6/10 atmosphere: "funky simulation" Gameplay as im.sim (mechanics only): 10/10 Lore and setting 5/10 <Story> Plot and characters/semiotics 4/10 Graphics 3/10 Sound work [some assets use HRTF positioning, others do not] 7/10 Sound design & music [it's about 4, but somehow it's not annoying] 5/10 . A perfect example of how even 1 indie developer can release a game in the most difficult genre to develop. Great work. Plus a score for an im.sim sophistication, "7/10".
