❤ Puzzle Solving

Players praise the logical and engaging nature of the inventory-based and logic puzzles. For example, one reviewer notes that solving the "Pill Merchant puzzle" or the "Beggar puzzle" requires carefully examining the surrounding environment and making intuitive connections. However, some puzzles veer into "convoluted" territory, relying on obscure solutions that may force players to consult guides.

❤ Exploration and Interactivity

The cyberpunk world is expansive, with reviewers highlighting the diversity of environments, from gritty urban sprawls to remote rural enclaves. Players can toggle between "reality" and "augmented reality" views, adding an extra layer of interactivity as they uncover hidden objects and environmental puzzles. Reviewers appreciate the richly detailed locations, packed with a wealth of interactive elements to discover.

❤ Progression and Navigation

Progressing the story requires skillful navigation between the game's many locations, dialogues with characters, and effective use of collected items to solve puzzles. Some players find the lack of a "fast travel" feature leads to tedious backtracking, while others see it as an authentic, old-school touch. The inventory system and contextual interaction mechanics generally work well, though a few reviewers suggest room for improvement.

❤ Challenge and Difficulty

The game is widely regarded as a challenging experience, with many comparisons drawn to classic, notoriously difficult point-and-click adventures. Puzzle solutions are often described as non-obvious, requiring "lateral thinking" that can lead to periods of frustration. However, the recent addition of an "easy mode" has been welcomed by players who found the original difficulty overly punishing.
