What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The prequel to the smash hit boomer shooter DUSK, DUSK '82 takes a completely different direction in both style and gameplay, opting for a top-down action-puzzler kind of gameplay with graphics straight from the likes of microcomputers from the eighties.
Speaking of design, the pixel-art graphics and simple sound effects work to give DUSK '82 a charming sense of retro style, and the controls are well mapped out for both keyboard and controller setups.

It is a bit too easy and the main campaign is over very quickly, but there is a level editor that lets you run wild and do pretty much anything within the constraints of the game engine, so the game has replayability.
It's a fun DUSK (the retro-FPS) themed Sokoban puzzle type game filtered through ATARI 2600 graphics.
