This game is great!
The game does a great job of taking an idea of a society like the one seen in movies like BladeRunner (or fuckin Pluto Nash) and expands on it. The world has enough new elements to make it stand out.
The main characters are great and you really do end up loving them. The side characters are also great in how funny or wacky they are while sometimes being effectively used symbolically to highlight real world issues and topics.
While the controls of the ships can be a little wonky everything else is pretty spot on.

I had my reservations about this game to begin with, I thought it was going to be yet another 8 bit style game trying to be something more impressive. Well, I was quite wrong, this is a good game with a good storyline and impressive graphics with out of this world lighting. My only criticism is the rigidness of the story every answer and every question is already planned out, now normally I wouldn’t mind that layout but I feel the game deserves more. There is a lot to love about this game, I felt sorry for control and was invested in Rania’s life enough to keep playing. A good game with good characters and fantastic lighting, man I love that lighting :-). One last thing to add, the city is glorious, fascinating to drive around and big, very very big.

Cyber Ops
This game is great and I’m kinda sad it got so many bad reviews. It’s challenging but honestly it’s not nearly as hard as people make it out to be. Once you figure out the mechanics it’s challenging but perfectly feasible after a couple of tries. It had some bugs at launch but they have all been fixed already.
Great atmosphere, good voice acting, nice looking interface and very singular gameplay. Being the guardian angel hacker behind a screen while the operators actually do the work might not be for everyone but I personally love it.

Every negative review is sadly 100 % correct. Only 25 % ever made 1st mission. Only 0,3 % players ever finished the game and 1 % just hacked the “game finished " achievement, because more players finished game than finished last mission. You will be fighting the logic breaking UI problems more than “triangle” enemies. All moving enemies are called “turrets” when killed. You don’t know at this moment if cyborg or human enemy type died.
You will NOT be able to win after level 5 without good oldschool health cheats. The game is so buggy that some mechanics needed for victory don’t works sometimes. I won spider-tank level 6 fight legit first, but squad just glitched at the door when leving the cathedral. QTE skillchecks are also broken or start at unwinnable state.

This is great to have one a second monitor with headphones on while working on something.
It’s even got it’s own dystopian plot to go along with it.
Brilliant.

There is something unsettling about plugging in your computer, loading up Rutger Hauer’s character and playing a game where he plugs into dead people’s brains to get a look at their memories. It makes noir cyberpunk feel a little too close to home in 2020. RIP Rutger, gone but not forgotten. Off-genre stealth scenes mar this otherwise great experience, worth picking up if you are into cyberpunk, detective mysteries and/or horror games. (Please note that you can no longer buy the original game and must purchase the Redux version)

2064: Read only Memories is a sci-fi point and click game set in the same universe as the Bartending Visual Novel as Va-11 Hall-A. I wouldn’t lie. At first i was drawn towards this game because it share the same setting with Valhalla. As i played the game, i came to realize this game can absolutely stand on its own with its own compelling story to tell.
Story
2064: ROM is set few years Before Valhalla. Aside from few references and cameos, it is absolutely its own stand alone stories. fan of valhalla will appreciate the little details put in the world, from a major news corporations to drink names in bars. if you aren’t, this game is still worth it to play as it offer a great story on its own.

Rainy City: Pandemic
Rainy City: Pandemic
DISCLAIMER: I received this product for no cost for the purpose of reviewing. However, this does not affect my views and opinions of the game.
Short Review
Rainy City Pandemic is a story driven title where the player drives around the city delivering pizza, trying to save up enough money to pay for their sister’s medical treatment. The bulk of the gameplay focuses on conversations with other characters and interactions with them. The game takes place in a dystopian future where the the pandemic (the covid-19 pandemic, assumingly) is still rampant.

Disclosure
This is a revisited review. Check out the original review here .
Rainy Days
Rainy City Pandemic is a game about a delivery boy in a city that is swept up in the wave of a pandemic. You are attempting to raise money for your sister to get her the medical attention she needs. This game had started out as a seven dollar game and has gone through some patches and a price drop to raise the quality of life. I played through the game again after a wave of updates and admittedly I have yet to play the newest additions to the game. What I can say is that one of the weaker points of the games has been significantly improved. The weakest point before was the dialogue. When playing the game through again I was no longer running into dialogue that was repeated nor were there as many open ended short conversations.

The Last Night
Humans first knew the era of survival. Then they knew the era of work. Now they live in the era of leisure. Machines have surpassed human labour not only in strength, but in precision, intellect, and creativity. The fight for survival doesn’t mean food and water, but a purpose for living. People now define themselves by what they consume, not what they create.
The Last Night immerses you in the everyday life of Charlie, a second-class citizen living in a city brimming with augmentation and citizens living a gamified existence – none of which Charlie can experience himself due to a childhood accident. Apathetic and disheartened by the seemingly pointless world around him, Charlie is presented with an opportunity to take matters into his own hands. But at what risk?

Neo Cab
Capra, sometimes a pax wants a human driver.
We finally have the two taxi games that were announced at last year’s E3. Night Call was the first to be released a couple months ago and now we finally have Neo Cab. Funnily enough, while Neo Cab was shown first it ended up releasing second. Let’s see how this one fares as we go into the future.
In Neo Cab, you play as Lina right before she arrives at Los Ojos with her few belongings and her trusty cab. While Lina would be more comfortable at Cactus Flats, the need to reconnect with her best friend, Savy, propels her forward. Why doesn’t Lina want to be at Los Ojos? Well, it turns out that it’s home to a tech company called Capra. Years ago, Lina worked with them as a cab driver, but as technology advanced, Capra switched out human drivers for self-driving cars. Not ready to stop driving people around, Lina went to get employed by Neo Cab. Now, Lina is one of the few human drivers left in Los Ojos as Capra tries to push their competition away.

Let’s get that out of the way first: I enjoyed the conversations with the passengers a lot. They’re sometimes funny, unexpected, deal with certain issues and represent a good spectrum of people. Obviously every single one has one issue or another and there’s no one that just lets you drive, but that’s what the game is about, so there’s no arguing that.
The main story however is your run of the mill dystopia with a big evil megacorp, nothing to write home about. It’s good enough to keep you interested. I hated the Savy character, but that’s actually a plus. She’s written that way and after having all too recent experience with this kind of person it hit a bit close to home. Props to the devs to how it’s handled and that you even get to ditch her, even though that particular scene comes across like a (repetitive) minigame.

NeonCode
It’s bad. It is really bad. I wanted to like this game, I really did, and I went in with extremely low expectations. Even though it was only $0.99, I still feel robbed. A junior cheeseburger would be more rewarding than this. I barely made it past the beginning. Everything about it is terrible, except for the aesthetic, which is only marginally interesting. I’m a huge fan of the cyberpunk and neo noir genres, but I couldn’t even begin to get into this.
I definitely don’t have a high end gaming rig, but my frame rates should NOT be this low when the graphics are this bad, so obviously much of the processing is just going to unnecessary lens flares and glow and stuff like that, which does little to make up for everything else. The gameplay is extremely rough and non-intuitive.

More interesting reviews on my Curator’s Page
Neon code is an experimental 3D adventure game that plunges us in an investigation of corporate conspiracy and murder, carried out by the detective, and main character, Craig Williams, in a cyberpunk world, full of lights and futuristic technology.
The city where the action takes place is vast and amenable to exploration. The 3D graphics are simple but well-done, with dark backgrounds, only lit by street lights and neon ads, which fit perfectly into the story environment. The music, predominantly electronic, blends surprisingly well with the game atmosphere and accompanies us without interruption.

NORTH
Interested in a game that has absolutely nothing to do with the first sentence of its description, or anything else for that matter? Then NORTH is the game for you!
–——————————————————-
If you are aware of my work - my reviews - then you’ll already know that I don’t dish out “not recommended” labels lightly. I try my best to like a game because I realise all the effort that developer’s put into their creation. I can’t, for the life of me, however, recommend this title in any way, shape, or form.
– Real player with 4.2 hrs in game
Introduction
NORTH is a interesting story exploration game where you have to figure things out for yourself. The game tries to relate to current issues of the contemporary refugee crisis. I am unsure if the game really sticks to this issue well throughout the game though
Gameplay
This game seems to be according to the story as you play throughout the game. But as I got nearer the end of the game I felt like the whole game sort of forgot about the main issue the game was tryign to promote. Being a refugee in the city and having to deal with these new and weird experiences that you may come across.
