bare bones, no tutorial, nothing to it, movement does not feel good...just not feeling this game for the price what so ever and don't see the justification for it..

The game is buggy. But can be addicting and fun.
Just depends on what game genre you like tbh.
If you like detective games, having a open world with driving for a single developer is very ambitious.
Even for what you get, the bugs and chunky gameplay are just a big no.
Worse than the developers other title "Ice Station Z"

This game is exactly the one that I wished for for such a long time! It is a classic cyberpunk detective story with neo-noire motives and great atmosphere. Recommend it highly and strongly wish for more content around it and new games in the same setting. Thank you so much devs! Please let me know how to support you.

Mir gefällt das Spiel. Gekauft, weil mir der Schauplatz ansprach. Futuristische Stadt / Cyberpunk. Hat mich an Blade Runner oder Tesla Effect erinnert - OK, die Autos fliegen nicht ;)
Ja, es gibt kein Tutorial, aber früher wurde man auch nie an die Hand genommen (NES/SNES Zeiten). Wenn man ins Pause-Menü geht und die Hilfe aufruft, findet man die Steuerung. Der Rest ist einfach Erkunden und Herausfinden.
Ja, die Steuerung ist gewöhnungsbedürftig. Speziell weil ich der Pfeil-Tasten Garde angehöre resp. gerne die Tastenzuordnungen selber vornehme. Grössere Entwickler mit Videospielen höherer Preisklasse haben schon Tastenzuordnungen weggelassen und die Bewegung auf WASD fixiert. Das ist nichts neues, erst recht wenn das Spiel portiert wurden.
Die Lenkung der Sicht mit der Maus ist OK. Gab auch schon schlimmere Umsetzungen. Das ich ständig mit der linken Maustaste wohin bewegen will, liegt wohl am heutigen Standard von Point&Click Abenteuer?
Für einen Preis unterhalb CHF 10 kann man nicht meckern.

I like this game. Bought it because the setting appealed me. Futuristic City / Cyberpunk. It remembered me of Blade Runner or Tesla Effect - OK, there are no flying cars though ;)
Yes, there is no tutorial, but with earlier games you were also not taken by the hand (NES/SNES days). If you go to the pause menu and look up help, you will find the controls. the rest is just scout and find out.
Yes, it takes to get used to the controls. Particulary because i grew up with arrow keys navigation resp. like to customize my key bindings. Bigger developers with video games higher price class left out key binding customization and set them to WASD. nothing new, especially when the game got ported.
The view navigation via mouse is OK. I had worse implementations. Why i always want to navigate to a specific area over the left mouse button is maybe due to the latest point and click adventarues standards?
you can't complain for a Price below CHF 10.
