ANNO: Mutationem Reviews
ANNO: Mutationem is an exciting and welcome addition to the world of cyberpunk gaming. The amount it presents within the short timeframe is astonishing. There’s always something to keep you attentive, whether it be the gorgeous pixel art, the enjoyable boss fights, or the deep narrative. Yet, ANNO does well to not overstay its welcome and instead presents a beautiful experience that engulfs you into a different reality.
Long story short: I'd definitely recommend this beautiful and fine-playing 2.5D pixel-esque action title if you need a 2022-made cyberpunk-laden experience.
As a cyberpunk adventure Anno: Mutationem lacks much coherent or satisfying plot but its responsive combat will stand out and entertain through its short playtime. It’s just a shame the overall package doesn’t live up to the promise of those stylish trailers.
Fascinating cyberpunk and SCP world awaits you. It is not big but all the elements in the game is almost best: Gorgeous graphics well mixing pixel and 3D, Psychedelic & futuristic sounds, rapid combo & parrying actions with simple controls, and thrilling adventures in cyberpunk style cities & secret labs. If later part and final chapter had been more polished, it would have been nominated indie GOTY.
