Gamedec Reviews
Gamedec is an interesting adventure game that won't appeal to anyone looking for action-based antics. It's just not that type of game. It's also quite text-heavy, so if this doesn't appeal, then Gamedec won't change your opinion. That said, if you like role-playing various rogues or being mister nice guy then this is worth checking out. It's also pretty decent value for money.
Overall, Gamedec is an excellent attempt to do the impossible. Tabletop games are as popular as they are today because they can't be replicated anywhere else, but Gamedec comes as close as possible to making it a reality. I felt like my choices truly mattered, and that's not something that happens often in games. While some of the virtualias can feel a bit tedious, the overall narrative they serve makes the experience worth it.
Gamedec is an immersive and intriguing isometric RPG that uses its concept and setting to great effect. There are some small bugs and the story gets a bit dense, but none of this should stop you from trying Gamedec out.
The world and premise of Gamedec are very captivating. Those looking for a unique cyberpunk mystery will get a kick out of the twists and turns of the narrative.
Gamedec is an isometric-view RPG with amazing graphics and story that would be a great title if it were not riddled with bugs. It also has major translation errors, which make the game only enjoyable in Polish. We know that it promises but has an uncertain future.

Although Gamedec offers a beautiful detective adventure, it cannot fully assess the great potential it contains.

Although it has flaws in its execution, Gamedec is a recommendable title. The plethora of information available to the player can sometimes be annoying, but it's undeniable that solving cases and solving mysteries is fun. Fans of games with an emphasis on storytelling and freedom of choice will feel right at home, and cyberpunk-themed enthusiasts will also find entertainment — if expectations are properly balanced.

Even in the current state, Gamedec is an interesting title with a rich and complex cyberpunk setting, however the premise had a bit more promise that was left underused.

Gamedec seems to show exactly how far you can pare down a cRPG, stripping away some of the deeper mechanics to streamline a tabletop-inspired experience. Those new to the genre will enjoy this opportunity to get their feet wet, while established veterans will feel this virtual “one-shot” campaign was executed succinctly. If you love cyberpunk detective stories and want something that will absolutely suck you in for 10 – 20 hours, you can’t go wrong with Gamedec.
Gamedec presents a rich world that would be worth revisiting again, though perhaps with an extra layer of polish needed for its narrative.
Gamedec is a fantastic point and click detective game that is only held back by small, fixable quality of life and balancing issues.
For such an indie endeavour, Anshar Studios have created a cracker of an RPG adventure. While not perfect and restricted by things a Triple-A title might be able to access readily, ‘Gamedec’ had me logging in to the system over and over again to delve into this not-so-distant future where crimes online may affect reality.
Sadly, this is a game that doesn’t quite stick the landing, despite having a stellar concept. There’s plenty of ambition on display here, and I commend that fact. Decisions are poignant and permanent, and seeing all the different places available to go is a treat. Seeing some of the tropes of other game genres mixed in was also a nice touch. One of the highlights was picking produce from my garden in that wild west farming game. Pop culture commentary. Gets me every time. However, the numerous negatives I’ve highlighted throughout this review does make for a tough recommendation.
If all you want to do is talk about man made horrors beyond your comprehension, then boy, do I have the game for you!
With a magnificent setting, well structured social mechanics and a really effective upgrade system, Gamedec brings a lot to the table. While held back by a muddy middle act, moments of ropey dialogue and some swampy movement controls, Gamedec has other areas that shine - exploring the mega-city of Warsaw and investigating its residents is good fun, and makes wonderful use of the rich source material. The lack of hands-on action will make this a non-starter for some players, but fans of old school RPG’s like the Fallout and Baldur’s Gate will find that the intrigue more than makes up for the lack of dice rolls.
While perhaps they are'nt for everyone, I do find that a cool cyberpunk experience, exploring more digitally dialed-in worlds, can make for a good time...
Gamedec is a decent game that will certainly appeal to people who like to influence the plot. The detective created by us has to deal with a really interesting case and if it were not for the elements at which you can feel budget, the final rating would certainly be higher.

A weird story of transhumanism and criminals in a rebuilt futuristic Warsaw, Gamedec is an interactive detective novel that's more interesting than traditionally fun.
If you are looking for a dialogue-heavy RPG like Disco Elysim, but one that is easier to read and comprehend, you've come to the right place.

More adventure and less RPG from cyberpunk virtual worlds. And not very exciting.
