In the last few years there have been a number of Blade Runner & Cyberpunk style games to come out. Not to leave out the highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 but here’s one you can get for free thru Epic Games Store currently. A detail that had slipped under my radar was that the main protagonist is voiced by none other than the late Rutger Hauer!

Observer was developed by Bloober Team(Layers of Fear), published by Aspyr, and rated MA 17+. It uses DX11 and will take a little over 8GB to install. You play as a neural detective who begins the game with a traumatic experience.

As a neural detective you’re actually using a cyber-enhanced body with it’s own special abilities that will be needed to solve this psychological horror. To some extent there’s a lot of look, click, investigate, & examining involved to gather details.

Those looking for either some nostalgic times with Mr. Hauer or perhaps a cyber itch to scratch may want to check this out.

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
