How it feels
A bleak, cinematic noir shooter with a heavy atmosphere and relentless, story-driven action.

What players say
Players agree the game is a classic held back by a broken Steam release: audio is busted and it crashes without a fan-made fix. When it works, the bullet-time gunplay and noir storytelling still hold up, but the relentless difficulty and sparse autosaves force constant manual quicksaving.
