What players say
If you liked Citizen Sleeper you'll like this one too. Different main character, different story, but similar vibes and mechanics. While familiar, there were several new mechanics that I felt did a good job adding tension to the game in appropriate places. The story was sweet and thoughtful and I mostly wish I got more time with the characters. I played as the Operator and didn't have problems with a death spiral...
It's a cool idea for a game, and honestly there's a lot more mechanical depth than the other negative reviews give it credit for. I didn't fail any contracts until I got genuinely bored by the story and started just clicking buttons, and the game makes it very easy to win even on the higher difficulties, and that's really the central problem. It just all feels so on rails, and I mean I get it, it's a visual novel...
