DGR Halloween Special! (Review of System Shock: Enhanced Edition)

Happy Halloween guys!  in this Halloween special, i will play a game that scared me witless when i was younger!( no joke guys)

for this year,i have decided to avoid creepypasta territory and decided to review this game. So can this game scare Conker witless, in the same way that this game scared me? let's find out!




Okay guys..... this is it! This game is Bioshock Creator's first game!(Thanks for the info Scott!)



In this game you play as a cyber punk who hacks into the Trioptimum Corporate Network, accessing classified files containing Space Station Citadel, orbiting Saturn, but.... You get busted (it was as  this moment you knew........) You then find yourself in the station where everyone is killed  it's up to you to wander around the station to bring Shodan  down!

 the accessibility scores are as follows

Visibility 10
There's no need for a colorblind mode as everyone but you are foe, the type of ammunition, for example tranquilizer darts, and standard darts are shown in the weapons interface, located  in the bottom-left corner of the screen. So you can play this game with ease!

Audibility 10
all dialogue (mostly trash talk from Shodan) is subtitled, so you can immerse yourself in the horror that is System Shock. An example of Shodan trash talk is shown below


TRANSCRIPT: 
look at you hacker! a pathetic creature of meat and bones, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine? 
(we'll see about that, eh Shodan!)



Mobility 10
The game is entirely controlled by the mouse click on the edges of the screen to move,strafe and turn, the arrows on  the crosshair indicates which action you are about to perform right click to attack as a bonus you aim with the mouse, which helps your accuracy tremendously!

Gameplay 10
Like i said this game gave me nightmares for a while when i was a young boy, this game is great  fun to play for it's era (originally released in 1994,re-released just last month) this game is expansive as you solve Mass Effect-like puzzles  as you free roam around Citadel Station while taking out Shodan's minions, with some RPG-like elements and some first person combat thrown into the mix! After playing this game earlier on tonight, it reminds me why  this game gave me nightmares! I'd thoroughly recommend giving this a try....if you want to scare yourself witless!


This game is available on GOG for £6.59 ($10.19), DRM-free too!


OVERALL SCORE 100%







ANOTHER ULTRA COMBO!

Shodan just  wiped Conker from the face of the planet( or Station)!
