When it comes to actually providing a fun experience, that's a bit more shaky. While the exploration based framework and interconnected world comes off very well, the combat is such an unavoidable drag, and since that is such a core part of gameplay, everything is brought down with it. There's still a lot of value to be found if you're a cyberpunker, but otherwise, the future is bleak.
Top Critic
With a phenomenal Cyberpunk aesthetic and fantastic characters, Dex is close to being an incredible experience. Lackluster combat and hacking let it down, but it still has a lot to offer for fans of the grim Sci-fi setting.
Top Critic
Dex is gorgeous to look at, has a captivating story to engage in and is downright frustrating when you need to fight your way out of danger.
Top Critic
Dex is a well-made game, packing all the features you'd expect from a cyberpunk adventure.
Top Critic
Dex, a dark and charming 2D title is a veritable mix of genres and gameplay pieces, making it worth taking the time to play.
Top Critic
Dex lacks in some areas, but I think the overall experience was pretty enjoyable. Being able to make your own choices and have different outcomes adds a lot of replay value. (Not a game for kids)
Top Critic
A gritty, cyberpunk action-RPG that doles out punishment and interesting story-telling in equal measure.
Top Critic
Overall, Dex is an excellent take on a cyberpunk Deus Ex game, and it managed to accomplish that with a smaller development budget.
If you’re a fan of cyberpunk games and don’t mind some dodgy combat I’d definitely suggest checking out the game, but otherwise I don’t think this will be the game for you.
DEX offers a complete package for those who like the RPG genre thanks to the well built mix of action and stealth. Exploring every corner of Harbor Prime is rewarding, even if it's not very complex. Dex's customization opens new paths according to the priority you give to each of her traits, and her versatility in combat makes the battles exciting. Besides that, the tone of mystery and the initial sequence of action already catches the player and presents a little of what can be expected in the course of the interesting adventure.
