Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Bit of a rogue-like feel to it - 8.5/10Storyline and dialogue are engaging and entertaining - 8/10VA's do an incredible job bringing still frame characters to life - 10/10All the agent characters have bio's that are highly entertaining to read and is one of many details that show a lot of care has gone into crafting the world and making it feel like youre building a "team" of rotating agents - 8/10There are a heap of different items to assist with dice rolls and the levelling system on the agents gives you a feel of progression rather than just grinding out missions, as well as random events that can be entertaining depending on your moral choice! - 9.5/10I wasnt expecting so many different minigames but theyre all fun with varying levels of difficulty.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Artstyle is beautiful and unique - it reminds me of Disco Elysium set in Hotline Miami I love it. - 9/10Music is a solid vibe back to the 80s, definitely delivers a well thought out and performed soundtrack - 9/10Gameplay and mechanics are easy to pickup and clearly explained, at this early point it feels like a game thats easy to learn but hard to master.

Graphics

Also, the game is VERY poorly optimized and runs VERY choppily even in its lowest graphics settings.

The board game inspired mechanics are streamlined and pair perfectly with the sleek neon interface.
