What players say
Players split on City of Chains. Some praise the dark cyberpunk atmosphere and how choices lead to multiple endings, while others say the writing is stiff, the combat repetitive, and the game feels like an awkward RPG Maker title. The difficulty draws complaints for being unbalanced.
