This is the BEST cyberpunk story I have seen in a long time - narratively, it blows any AAA competition out of the water. I cannot recommend this game enough. Minor warning: THIS IS A WALKING SIMULATOR. It's essentially an interactive novel, and gameplay is where this title is at its weakest. Honestly, it may have been better if they had streamlined the gameplay elements even more (there is an easy but distracting 'rewind time' mini game that ends up detracting from how cool it is to watch a crime scene play in reverse - you gotta let the moment breath, guys). But if you want to get immersed in a noir story that thinks to a meaningful degree about its subject matter, this game is for you. The essential plot has been done before - it is a similar world to Altered Carbon. *However,* the human impact of living in that society is portrayed in a much more complete, personal, and grounded way than that show ever achieved. This is definitely a "B" release, but it's batting way above its weight. So, if you don't mind some small-dev studio wonkiness and are looking to sight see an undying detective's inner demons, you will have a great time with this game.

+ Visually stunning and stylish. Just absolutely stellar design. + The mood, the music, the looks, it's like Bioshock meets Tex Murphy meets The Fifth Element. BRAVO! + Gameplay was satisfying enough as was the duration - Plot got a little muddled at the end, I kind of lost interest in the last act but the ride was fun enough. Solid B-!

In short: Noir detective walking simulator in cyberpunk world with Braindance system from CP2077 and choices. Nobody wants to die is a very solid product for a first game from the studio. Critical Hit Games are from Poland, which can be noticed by some easter eggs/names/details. Pros: - Visuals are stunning. - Game is very "Blade Runner"-styled. - Voice acting is great. - Progression of character's relations based on dialigue option choices feels nice. Cons: - Facial animations sometimes can be a bit off, but you will see other people in dialogues pretty rarely, so it is not a problem. - Plot and it's development/presentation. Kind of chaotic. - One of the endings makes no sence until you will understand what is actually happeing here. - Game is using a lot of things from other projects, which makes it a bit unoriginal. Narrative and story is where game has some problems: - Being a noir-styled detective, protagonist will sometimes say something with his "noir" voice, but these sentences will seriously lack in terms of logic, intellect and sence. Like a fillers that were pushed there without any actual idea behind them. - Serious Altered Carbon vibes. - Braindance system from CP2077. - Storytelling is not very good, I was really trying at times to understand who is who and what were the motives. - One ending will lead to even more confusion. - "Сredits voice message" which we already have seen in another game, but much more emotionally strong (trying not to spoil). - The whole universe, it's history and logic - not described very well. And for the first half of the game I was not sure how this world actually ended up here and how everything works. To sum up, it is really a good and very beautiful game, moody, but story feels a somewhat chaotic and rushed, which is kind of a letdown. I'd say game deserves 8/10, but realistically it is 6.5-7/10. Anyway a solid foundation for studio :)

Really good game. Reminds one of Cyberpunk's BrainDance detective mode. But in a art deco Noirpunk futuristic style that resembles a bit of Bioshock. Either way. Good game. Play it if you like detective work and good narration. Would be cool to have an semi-open world game in this beautiful crafted universe.

Amazing game. A proper film noir detective story set in a dystopian cyberpunk world. Graphically it can be considered a showcase of Unreal Engine 5. Music is great, very atmospheric. When it comes to the gameplay it's pretty much walking simulator and a very light detective investigation. You are pretty much always on rails and can't divert from the track planned by the developers. Playing it feels like watching an old school movie.
