Quick review after 14 hours:
+ Beautiful world and characters
+ Interesting story
+ Fast combat
+ Solo RPG with Co-op and Online modes
+ Many things to collect and discover
+ Make Old friends - talk with AI
+ Jump and glide through air
+ Pet cats
+ Upgrade weapons and skills
+ You upgrade item slots not specific items

+ Sci-fi Soviet Union environment, setting
+ Set audio language to Russian for an authentic experience
+ Music, for the first time I set the music volume higher than the effects/dialogue volume
+ "Nu, pogodi!" animations
+ Upgrading weapons
+ Conversations with the red and horny fridge

- Time locks with clicking. At least menu has option "puzzle auto-solve", so I had to activate it. Fortunately the description is misleading - this does not solve other puzzles
- Design of robots
- Too many drawers to search and collect
- Boss fights. The first boss stopped me

+ Story, atmosphere, environment, enemies
+ Smooth gameplay
+ Very good overview of further actions: rooms change color on the map when all items are found there, checkpoints that require an item from elsewhere are marked on the map
+ Items are marked when it is safe to throw them away
+ Resources management, you need all these bullets and healthy plants
+ Sometimes you just have to run because Mr. X is here
+ Different playthroughs for Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield (Chris Redfield's sister from RE1)

- Greenhouse puzzles are quite complicated

Basically all the game is like solving puzzles with characters's skills. Save and load often. Quirky humor added here and there.

+ Different chars with different skills
+ My favourite playable characters are Teresa aka Blind Sniper and Suleidy aka Bush Doctor

- I'm not a fan of this animation style
- Story is so-so
- Some small bugs, needed to reload previous save in these cases
- Too long, have used all the skills and tactics multiple times around 20h playtime already

+ Adventure story with original design and environment.

- Possible actions, such as how to move something, are sometimes clunky or hard to understand.
- Sometimes, when you move the mouse to the edge of the screen, the camera moves forward, revealing new options to choose from.
- The mouse sometimes disappears, requiring multiple Alt+Tab or controller button presses to regain focus.

Kick some ass! I selected Let's Rock difficulty. Original Duke Nukem vibe somewhat exists.
The subtitles and not all menu texts does not take into account you can play this on a 4K screen. The graphics is manageable.
It's mostly shooting and walking. Ego Boost activities add something more to do in the game. Some interesting extra tasks such as steering a model car or driving and jumping between the hills.
Later levels add several climbing and jumping tasks - progressing is not easy.
Generator Room boss took me down, three levels left to go.

Exploration and survival of an underground nuclear bunker. A chilling story with surprises.
Mostly following the path and choosing everything, minimal choices.
The button presses were a bit clunky on my computer. I used the controller for the Main Pressure Valve and similar tasks.

Intensive planning and action as essential for an Alien game. You need to manage Your health, bullets, resting points. As you progress you will gain better weapons and new skills.

Playthrough 1
Selected Medium difficulty, fought for every room up to mission 6 Atmoshperic Nightmare but couldn't pass Infinite Onslaught. Can't change difficulty during campaign, You need to start new game.
Campaign completion 55%. Time spent 26 hours.

Playthrough 2
Selected Story difficulty. Fortunately, it's not very easy, it still requires management and tactics. The last two missions were quite easy, as the soldiers also progressed.
A bug related to Archivist achievement - I gathered all datapads but nothing achieved.
Campaign completion 100%. Time spent 29 hours - had all the experience from the first playthrough.

New Game + exists too but this is mainly an option to progress your units to level 15 instead of 10.

Beautiful and colorful. I don't usually play games that require much jumping, so this is a challenge for me even on easy mode. The movement and jumping are smooth once you get used to it.

A controller is a must, I failed several jumps on the keyboard that were fairly easy with the controller. And somehow some of the rarer actions, like assigning new skills, didn't work with my controller - here I used the keyboard again.

The difficulty of the tasks and jumps increases quite quickly, but it was interesting to progress and learn new mechanics. Some of the new skills make it easier to complete previous jumps.

Until I learned the Bash skill - maybe it was related to my controller, but I couldn't handle it at all. So I quit, never to come back...

Still worth to try although my adventure was quite short.

A nice and seriuous little game where You can explore, collect items, solve not-too-difficult puzzles, fight with light and use a fire extinguisher.
