How it feels

A claustrophobic, unnerving descent into a cyberpunk hell where every corridor hums with dread and 90s-era immersion still feels fresh.

What players say

Players call this a landmark immersive sim that defined the genre, but opinions split on whether the Enhanced Edition is worth it over the original. Many praise the dense atmosphere and groundbreaking design, though they warn that the controls and UI feel clunky by modern standards, and some report persistent technical issues that the developers never fixed.
