Neon Chrome

Neon Chrome

Pick a clone and battle through the many floors of a skyscraper to reach the top and take down the evil Overseer in this top-down roguelike shooter. Players must deal with everything from assault drones and cyborgs to military robots and security guards, but fortunately, there’s plenty of firepower to unlock and cybernetic enhancements that can make the job easier. Neon Chrome features plenty of action, but the procedural levels can begin to look too similar after a while and the boss battles are somewhat uninspiring. Nevertheless, blowing up almost everything in sight while upgrading weapons and picking perks is a lot of fun and the game has plenty of replay value.

Gameplay: Battle through procedural levels while collecting loot and unlocking new weapons and perks.

Graphics: The visuals look good and the game fully embraces its cyberpunk aesthetic, but levels look very similar after a while.

Sound: The synthesizer-heavy soundtrack and combination of gunshots and explosions enhance the experience
