So ingenious to come up with a Suda51-inspired dungeon crawler and set it in Hong Kong, of all places. I just hope that in the full game more than just the bottom part of the UI buttons is clickable on the protagonist's PC, and that my frame time won't look like the electrocardiogram of a tachycardic person.4 found this helpful
i cannot belive this is free the art style is cool as hell the writing can be both genuinly good and funny it is set in the most underused place in the world aka kowloon it is a must play if you like oldschool rpgs3 found this helpful
Amazing little tech demo for what I hope to be a great game. Clearly made with love for the 90s/00s horror and oddcore works, this snapshot oozes with atmosphere. While short and lacking in combat, the number of updates since release have added in fun side quests that (with the exception of getting the sewer key) were very enjoyable to complete. I'd say the amount of content is about as much as ENA: Dream BBQ Chapter 1.1 found this helpful
A great game. Lucid dreaming. Dripping of atmosphere.1 found this helpful
can't believe this is a free game, it was great
7/7 - Because it's free 6/7 - if it cost $5-10 Damn. This game was tight. Very refreshing too. Who would enjoy it? If you like Suda51 games like Killer7. If you love the look of old PlayStation 1 games and their music. If you like dungeon crawling, cyberpunk exploring, kingdom hearts storying, wacked out, cracked out parody, with with mature dialog. Loved it. It's a bit of a slog in movement and transitions from district's takes more effort than it should. You can't control ambient volume. No inventory to see what you have. Some controls not explained. These are all very forgivable for the price of the game.
