An overdose of reality can have dire consequences... Tumble down the rabbit hole and embrace your downfall with 12 endings, non linear day by day progression, sanity system and more...
The gameplay blends fast-paced, high-octane action with more tactical, puzzle-like elements. Encounters play out like "fast-paced puzzles with lethal consequences" where both the player and enemies go down in just a few shots. Players must use quick reflexes, environmental awareness, and strategic thinking to overcome these difficult combat scenarios. The gameplay requires players to make the best use of the game's unique mechanics, like the "superkick" - a powerful melee attack that can dispatch enemies in stylish ways - and temporary boosts from various pills that provide effects like bullet time.
The gameplay rewards players for stringing together stylish kills and combos. A combo and style system encourages experimentation with different approaches to find the most efficient ways to take down groups of enemies. This adds a layer of replayability as players strive to achieve the highest scores and most impressive takedowns.
The game features non-linear progression, where certain scenes and levels will play out differently based on the player's choices and mental state. This can lead to alternative paths, levels, and one of the game's 12 possible endings. The narrative is intentionally cryptic and open to interpretation, adding to the game's replayability as players try to uncover the full story.
Reviews note the gameplay is extremely challenging, with a steep learning curve. The combat requires precise timing and tactics to overcome the game's lethal enemies. However, the short, trial-and-error nature of the levels means players can quickly retry after dying, encouraging them to experiment and improve.
