However, to label this as a cyberpunk game might be a bit hasty–the visuals certainly draw from modern-day Tron-inspired cyberpunk, but the technological aspects and any moral quandaries that come with them are downplayed. This might be a game to play with a bluetooth controller in hand. My only complaint in regards to gameplay is that on occasion, Icey will be forced into a corner of the screen, thus being obscured by the player’s thumbs, making combat more difficult. As far as gameplay and graphics go, it’s stellar as a mobile game–something about the animations and art style make it feel right at home, yet it exceeds the effort that seems to be put into your garden-variety app game. The combat is frenetic and engaging, even (or perhaps especially, the UI is subtle but visually appealing) on a touchscreen. In the wake of meta games like Undertaleand Axiom Verge, ICEY feels a little out of its depth.

In the corridors of scrapped levels and abandoned code are the keys to unlock Icey’s self-awareness, dogged every step of the way by the narrator’s protestations. However, it quickly becomes apparent, should the player choose to contradict the narration, that there is another story lying beneath the surface.
Guided by the game’s narrator, the titular lone android’s goal is to fight her way through a post-apocalyptic world inhabited solely by the hostile robotic minions of a poorly-fleshed-out villain known as Judas. Unfortunately, however, since there are only so many games I can play in a week’s time, some reviews will be incomplete until further notice.įantablade Network‘s hack-and-slash sidescroller, ICEY, seems the most appropriate (and recent) port from PC to mobile platforms. This week, like last week, we’ll be looking at PC-to-mobile ports–but this time, I’m putting action and point-and-click adventure games under the microscope. Only here will you find articles covering cyberpunk’s most notable games for under $5, and only here is the chaff separated from the wheat.
