Citizen Sleeper

Incredible story that had me hanging on every word, every choice. The dice and the hard choices are executed in a way that makes them meaningful yet without too much FOMO. Highly recommend.

Había escuchado tan buenas cosas del juego que siempre lo había tenido como pendiente. E indudablemente es un buen juego, con un lore muy interesante e historias que se aprovechan muy bien de ello. La mecánica también tiene su qué y acaba haciéndose disfrutón, pero ya a la que has terminado un par de historias que llevan a los créditos, creo que pierde fuelle y ya lo acabas completando para ver lo que pasa, más que por lo divertido que es.

Recommended if you enjoy games that have great stories and interesting settings. Also if you enjoy it when your decisions matter. You won't miss the combat of other games in this one, and it's short enough that you don't notice its absence. Citizen Sleeper has a complex narrative hidden behind what first looks like a simple interface. Decisions matter and there are multiple endings. Some are good and some aren't. The story does a great job of interrogating what it means to be a synthetic lifeform that's a copy and of value in different contexts. Can you beat out planned obsolescence? Is it possible to beat out corporate greed? Why are you being hunted by cosmic horrors deep within the net? The world is lived in and the characters all have unique personalities and motivations. It's cyberpunk through and through. There are 3 classes, each with a different way of doing things, but that can eventually expand out to be far more functional. Self-modification becomes integral to getting things done. The music is not overpowering and adds atmosphere to important scenes without being too much or distracting. Also, condition and energy are different values, but both are modified by tasks, sleeping, and eating. Run too low on condition and you will be unable to roll dice to complete actions. Run low on energy and you start to starve, which affects just about everything you do. Finding out how to manage them is key. it's an interesting take o the idea of a synthetic lifeform that often would be depicted as running on a battery or unable to consume food. Botany is incredibly important here. The interface itself is easy to use but hard to predict. Dice rolls add unpredictability and tension when on a timer to complete goals. Despite having up to 4-5 options in dialog at times, sometimes there is no good answer. While most of the gameplay ends up being mouse clicks and traversing maps, it feels like more than that. it's easy to sit down to play and lose 5-6, hours but the game only takes 10-12 to beat if you do absolutely everything to reach the end of the expansion content (not including trying to get all the endings). There's no user directed combat either, although there is violence. I played this originally back before the expansions came out and it felt very incomplete. The story just ended unless you took one of the early endings. Some things were looping back then without a clear idea of what you were getting out of it. Even feeding the stray cat didn't have a dedicated outcome. Now that the game is finished and the expansions are all in place, everything you do and everyone you meet now has a purpose (even the stray cat) in the end. Nothing is left hanging. The art is wonderful as well, with a style that fits the setting. The only issues I had were that, in the later expansion content, there are some grammatical issues like missing quotation marks. It makes it harder to tell what is being said versus being thought. It's relatively minor. There are also a few spots where there probably should be a drive entry for waiting to see what will happen so you can see the countdown without having to change maps. It can make you question if you selected the right dialog option at times. Also minor.

A game with heart, well written and with enjoyable loops. It did become extremely easy after fulfilling all of your goals and leveling up, though for a moment it had the sweet rhythm of challenge. As soon as you remove the arbitrary time clock you start with, you're essentially able to beat all challenges through attrition. I'm not sure how to solve for that, as shortening the clocks or keeping you on timers the entire game risks large swings of luck unduly influencing success or failure, which could be frustrating, or never leaving you free to explore. It is enjoyable, and satisfying, emotionally moving. The soundtrack is wonderful, the art is great, and the story is top-notch. Highly recommend.

Just finished the game (main storylines + DLC) and this is honestly such an underrated gem. The mechanics and resource management are extremely easy to get down, plus the game rewards you alot for just doing things that initially seem inconsequential at that moment in time, but the payout is tenfold later. The score, rich chraracter stories, and the headcanon you can weave into the narrative for your own character are the things I'll fondly remember about my experience. I'm definitely playing Citizen Sleeper 2.

The game sets a great standard for cyberpunk sci-fi settings, and does what it sets out to do very well. If you ever want to run a cyberpunk TTRPG game, play this, and then buy MOTHERSHIP. The writing is, admittedly, not always perfect, but it never goes below "good". For the majority of the time, it's great. I was a bit annoyed with how limited the dialogue choices were, your PC often has their opinions and emotions predetermined, but beyond that, there's very few things to complain about here. The save system feels very strict, but for this game specifically, I believe it ends up working okay. The audio and visuals are fine, I don't feel strongly about them, but they fit the setting well. Ultimately, a great game to sink 3 or 4 long sessions into, and wonderful inspiration for anybody looking to do modern cyberpunk worldbuilding.
