Story
In near future America, the emergence of corporate monopolies has placed a strangle hold on the economy. Among a glut of mass privatization, corporations begin contracting private military security firms to protect their assets. Setting a controversial precedent, defense contractor Grand Robotics Inc. deploys a private security firm to be their "Mergers & Acquisitions" arm.
After a failed attempt to buy out competing Bartleby Automation, Grand Robotics turns to their security firm to execute a "hostile takeover" of their competitor. The firm storms into Bartleby's corporate HQ and locks the building down.
In Turnover you play Clea Holden, a Bartleby worker who becomes caught in the middle of the crisis. Coming to the conclusion that the situation is too volatile, Clea hatches a desperate plan to escape. She must find freedom, armed with only her determination to survive.

Players praise this stealth-action game for its clean mechanics, good music, compelling political themes, and accessible difficulty that rewards thoughtful play without excessive frustration. However, some criticize late-game design choices like tedious timed sequences, occasional control issues with throwing mechanics, and quirky enemy vision cone behavior that can feel unfair, plus there are concerns about the developer no longer being active and technical launch issues for some players.
The game does not start, and the dev is no longer active. Shame.3 found this helpful
It's good, if you're into stealth-action. The protagonist is not completely powerless, music is really good, and the whole political premise scrathed my anarchist itch. The level of difficulty on normal mode is high, but manageable. A couple levels in the second hald of the game are quite boring though, since a few sequences rely on you getting into a certain place at a certain time and failing to do so results in a lot of time wasted just waiting. Also, guards' vision cones are triangular, so they can see further with the edge of their vision. This wonkiness created many frustrating moments when protagonist was seen while the guard was turning around catching just a glimpse of her. Overall, it's really worth the money.2 found this helpful
I loved it! This was a real gem for me. I played it on Easy, found that challenging enough, and enjoyed every level through completion. It is really about stealth and avoidance, watching easy patterns, and completing the level. Each level isn't too long, and not very painful to fail and retry. From the videos, I thought there would be gunfire and bombs, but for most of the game it is really no weapons, maybe something to stun or distract. It is also somewhat easy to hide if spotted. But one shot is usually all it takes to kill you. I loved the friends you meet to help unlock things, or the security guard that acts as your hired gun that you point in the right direction. The cone of visibility for enemies (and security guard) make it nice and predictable, and fun. Late in the game you get to do some damage, and was a welcome break. Once you have a security guard to help on a level, if you are careful, you can usually easily clear a level from that point. Graphics are not the point on this game, just the gameplay. I honestly just skipped most of the story until the very end :) . [5/5 stars] It ran great on my Win10 Alienware GTX 1080, and played with an xbox360 control…1 found this helpful
This little gem needs more recognition, because it's a challenging yet accessible little top-down stealth puzzler with surprisingly great writing! A great game for getting your bearings in the current rise of oligarchies/kleptocracies; doesn't outstay its welcome and costs next to nothing.
A good, fairly quick stealth game with a few minor control quibbles. First, the stealth is very clean. All sight lines from guards, cameras and sentry guns are always present. You also see how far noise travels when anything makes noise. Guard patrols tend to be short so you can figure out patterns quickly. Distractions, especially thrown objects, are kind of finicky. I greatly disliked the throw controls on my 360 controller. It just felt unintuitive. Even though many levels are quite large, they are usually totally linear. They are more like a puzzle with a single solution. Avoid guards. Move friendly NPCs where they need to be. Sometimes you need to put out fires. Usually cameras and sentry guns need to be shut down. Later in the game you encounter boss battles that are unnecessary but not too difficult. It has very limited replayability as the levels are linear and there are only 2 endings based on a single binary decision.
Great Game, I loved it! Great Game to play from time to time.
