The talented guys at Antab Studio managed to build with limited resources a futuristic and stylistically appealing adventure, a well made and memorable one. It might not be too original and it's got some unpleasant difficulty spikes, but Foreclosed lets us pleasantly play it until the end credits, capturing us in his comic dystopian world.

A simple yet very practical gameplay with mind-blowing visuals and a fearful but very intriguing world building has made Foreclosed a very enjoyable experience and we can’t wait for more stories in this beautiful dangerous world if the developers want to make more.

Antab Studio’s ambition has to be applauded. Blending multiple game types with such a bold aesthetic style and an intriguing story premise – and getting so close to pulling it all off – is a remarkable achievement in its own right. As it is, it’s a qualified recommendation from me – the combat could be a little tighter and you should be prepared for some frustration with the instant-fail stealth sections. However, at the price point Foreclosed sits at, you’re getting a lot of bang for your buck, and that’s a difficult value proposition to ignore.

Foreclosed manages to condense in a single game a decent shooter, a basic role-playing game and, why not, even a bit of science fiction thriller, which doesn't hurt. The problem, however, is who exactly this game is meant for: it is too light as an FPS, too basic as an RPG, and the puzzles aren't deep enough for an adventure. It needs someone who wants to simply live a cyberpunk experience, as long as your expectations aren't set too high.

Foreclosed is a good third person action shooter with cool gameplay features, campaign and an unique look. Accompanying Kapnos through the streets of a futuristic city is an interesting task that is not perfect because of the absence of more frenetic and exciting combat. However, the exploration elements and a cybernetic theme collaborate so that the game is consistent and has an identity that will please various types of players.

FORECLOSED wants players to embrace its brightly colored future, but watch out for a little jank and some frustrating sections that may scare some people off.

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed what Foreclosed had to offer, and a circular narrative is always a good way to get on my good side. The game effortlessly makes you feel like you’re in a comic book, and it feels immersive. But while there are some outstanding elements to the game, I just want more of it—more story, more action, more mechanics. Furthermore, I want to see Antab Studio use these same elements to build a longer game with more complexity.

While perhaps the results aren’t always as great as developers may hope for, I do have a great appreciation for games that take some risks in their design...

Foreclosed is a stylish title that integrates comics and video games. The use of panels is exemplary and helps to communicate the narrative. With the symbiote revolver and intuitive hacking, the game has implemented many features successfully. Unfortunately, the repetitive gameplay and sparse environments affect the overall experience. That being said, releasing at a budget price, comic book fans may want to check out this intriguing title.

Foreclosed has some really good ideas and excels in some areas. Sadly the gameplay elements make the experience a little frustrating and tough, and the pacing is uneven. Still, Foreclosed is well worth experiencing.

Foreclosed is a good action game that mixes different elements of gameplay, with a very intriguing graphic novel style but which does not offer an adequate longevity.

‎Foreclosed is a game that knows how to use futuristic style and comics very well, go from full screen to vignettes, and use words to represent sounds is very successful and refreshes the combats, however to be a game with so much focus on combat, it is a shame that ‎‎its game of weapons and special abilities feel mostly without grace and effectiveness.‎

Foreclosed follows Evan Kapnos’ mission to unravel the mystery surrounding his identity foreclosure, and attempts to inject the style of a graphic novel into a third-person shooter. Does it deliver on its promise of a sleek Cyberpunk adventure?

Foreclosed is an interesting stealth-action adventure game that offers a neat presentation and mildly interesting story. Whilst the gameplay could do with some polishing, it’s not all doom-and-gloom if you stick with it. There is some fun to be had here, but sadly it’s over far too quickly and could have done with some extra content, perhaps additional difficulty settings. If you desire a visually different game to play then Foreclosed is worth a look especially considering the asking price of around £12 which is quite reasonable.

All things considered, FORECLOSED is a bit of a mixed bag. For a game with such a focus on combat, it’s a shame its gunplay feels mostly weightless and that the special abilities you unlock are largely underutilized. However, despite its unsatisfying shootouts, the story kept me hooked, and I couldn’t wait to see what would unfold next across its virtual comic book pages. With more polish and perhaps a bigger budget, FORECLOSED could have been a must-play techno-thriller. As it stands, it’s a killer proof of concept that just misses the mark when it comes to nailing the fundamentals. Still, if you like the sound of a neo-noir adventure that hits like a strange fusion of Max Payne and Cyberpunk 2077, you’ll certainly find that here.

Foreclosed excels in world-building and presentation. The graphics and stylistic choices of a comic book frame the narrative and its structure. Though the brightness of the neon lights are strewn throughout the city, this dystopian world is rather dark. It’s a shame the game is only a few hours long, making it more of a cinematic experience. Despite its shortcomings with control and narrative, I still had a lot of fun trying to get Evan’s life back from the authority above.

The end result of Foreclosed is, as I said, “ish”. It is a mixed bag, a good little game that stumbles to some fantastic moments. It’s an interesting game with some overall design issues. You breathe in a visually stunning world, both in design and in execution, but struggle to care about the who and why with a story that doesn’t pick up much after the opening act. Foreclosed is a game that absolutely has moments you will enjoy, but it will be deleted from your data banks not long after.

Foreclosed is set in a cyberpunk-like dystopian future. The idea of a graphic novel style gameplay is pretty unique but the in-game mechanics that don’t really resolve the expectations was a bit of a let down.
