    Dex is a 2-D side-scrolling sci-fi RPG.

    Pros: * I was able to determine quite quickly that I didn't like Dex. * The beginning of the story seems intriguing. I wasn't motivated to play too far into the game, so I can't comment on how it evolves. * The skills seem interesting, I suppose. Cons: * The voice acting is awful. * The dialogue is awful. * The controls are unintuitive,    Dex is a 2-D side-scrolling sci-fi RPG.

    Pros:
    * I was able to determine quite quickly that I didn't like Dex.
    * The beginning of the story seems intriguing. I wasn't motivated to play too far into the game, so I can't comment on how it evolves.
    * The skills seem interesting, I suppose.

    Cons:
    * The voice acting is awful.
    * The dialogue is awful.
    * The controls are unintuitive, and can't be re-mapped.
    * Sometimes, it looks like there's a floor to walk on when there really isn't, resulting in rather frustrating deaths.

    I'm tired of the game after just a few hours. I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone.    … Expand

    Retro cyberpunk RPG platformer. Interesting idea and style, decent dubbing and music… but with gameplay it's been weaker. The technical issues also don’t help with playability. [Issue#266]

    Although a lot could be improved in Dex, nearly everything is good and solid. With the exception of the hacking, you'll have a lot of fun running and fighting your way across the map, even if you don't always know where you are and where you should be.

    Dex: Enhanced Edition isn’t perfect. It’s a love letter to not only classic sci-fi but also classic 90’s RPG/adventure games. Where Dex falls short is the sum of its parts; so many gameplay elements have been incorporated in, but not one of them stand out as excellent.
