The plot is intricate and there is good world-building and lore exposed as you play through.

    The game mechanic itself is simple; it's a shooter/looter with some stealth elements. Enemy AI isn't all that challenging, and once you're armed up enough, you won't bother with stealth anymore..

    The visuals are excellent, it looks like a faithful reproduction of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.
    The gunplay is ok, even if the guns themselves aren't 100% accurately reproduced.

    Well worth the asking price.

    I thought it was a decent game up until the last mission, where things got overly complicated and after a few tries I gave up on the game andI thought it was a decent game up until the last mission, where things got overly complicated and after a few tries I gave up on the game and never finished it, because I simply had no fun with it at that point. A shame as I had spent 20 h on it and really wanted to reach the end. Oh well.

    If they would have kept it in the same style all the way to the end this would have been a strong 7 for me. I'm a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. fan and this reminds me of it.

    But the end part made me feel like I don't know if I like it or not.

    It's a cool idea how they wrapped it up, but maybe the choices along the way matters a lot of how you perceive it. For me it was just struggle after struggle.

    support not so good. very hard to finish game if you make a mistake or companion leaves. You need to die first???? could not even finishsupport not so good. very hard to finish game if you make a mistake or companion leaves. You need to die first???? could not even finish this. Lots of bug reports.
    No real support. Disappointing, could have been better without some of the weird plot ideas.
