First, the obvious: yes, this is another duplicate.
Epic offered it as a freebie back in December 2023.
But hey, that's not so bad. There were so many games
being tossed out back then that maybe you missed it,
so here's another chance. "Ghostrunner" is a stylish
first-person hack-n-slasher, although it's as much
about the platforming as it is the combat. Think of
it as a bastard love-child of a Souls-like and
Mirror's Edge. It's a weird combo and imperfectly
realized, but fun and stylish. Who doesn't want
to play a coked-out cyber-ninja murdering anything
that wanders in his path?
I must've missed this last December. Anyways, I tried the demo at some
point but when it came to bullet dodging I was rubbish and got killed
every time. I remember thinking that's what you get for bringing a
knife to a gun fight. But maybe I'll try the full game.
