What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
It's an old game that is not optimized for play on modern hardware. It works just fine on OGXBOX or XEMU, it feels clunky on PC.5 found this helpful
I knew nothing about the game. I just liked the cover art and bought it. So far, so good.3 found this helpful
The developer made the effort to add Steam Trading Cards, but couldn’t be bothered to add any Steam achievements. That’s a real shame for a full-length action game like this, because there are plenty of obvious milestones that could have been achievements, from completing missions and progressing through the story to mastering the different psychic abilities. The game already has Steam Cards, so adding a handful of achievements would have made the Steam version feel much more complete. It’s also a pity that the story ends on a cliffhanger, with the planned sequels never happening.2 found this helpful
О чем вы тут пишете? Какой ♥♥♥♥♥ динамический экшн? Какой ♥♥♥♥♥ сюжет? Это унылый кринжовый огрызок. Я в нее играл в момент выхода и дальше пролога не продвинулся. Все хотел когда-нибудь нормально поиграть — и вот тут вы понаписали хороших ревью, я подумал: ну пора. И вот наконец решил пройти. Катсцены, снятые на трясущийся фрикам. Половину уровней можно просто пройти, тебя даже сражаться не заставляют. Актер озвучки главного героя после первой главы вообще поменялся. Дизайн персонажей в нормальных катсценах каждый раз разный. И всё это создает ощущение, будто игру переделывали 50 раз. Кто-то явно пытался сделать игру мечты, но нихера не доделал — может, бюджет кончился, я хз. В итоге они просто слепили какой-то продукт из того, что осталось. Да, возможно, у игры был потецевал. Я даже могу представить, что изначально у нее были какие-то большие амбиции и идеи. Но итоговый продукт — это просто огрызок говна. Бооооже, как меня порвало-то. Я столько лет хотел наконец нормально в нее поиграть, увидел ваши хорошие отзывы, подумал, что, может, я тогда просто не распробовал. А по итогу что? Да гавно.2 found this helpful

It's definitely a cult classic. It has it's moments, you get options, but the story is formulaic, the programming is iffy, and it's unstable on modern hardware. Definetly read the steam community guide on troubleshooting issues. Despite all those issues, it was still enjoyable. I think the early-mid game was the best, as the limited options better defined the flow of combat. Towards the end you are, both narratively and mechanically, a demigod. You can play in first person or third (though maneuvers are limited in first), as a cover shooter or movement shooter, as a sci-fi wizard or Jason Bourne. Those options are all there and executed competently enough to be enjoyable. But the jank is also there and must be worked around. Whether it's finicky elevators or game crashes or poorly telegraphed solutions, you can't expect a smooth ride from start to finish. It's a classic "jank but fun old game". Not one I can recommend to anyone, but still one I can recommend to some people -- with caveats.
