A middle-aged cop in an alternate universe east-block country reinvents himself through the use of various ideologies (as they would be wielded by a middle-aged, waste-of-space cop) all the while trying to solve the murder-by-lynching of a hired gun.
Don't mistake this game for a walking simulator or a visual novel, it is first and foremost an RPG in a style you haven't played before.

my advice:
1. allow yourself to roleplay, don't limit your choices through self-imposed rules.
2. The game rewards exploration and messing up, not every failure is a failure, so don't save scum!
3. DON'T SAVE SCUM, you won't enjoy succeeding every check.

Edit 2023:
Just split the IP and give all the original creators permission to work in Elysium you ghouls. Why did the game have to be so prophetic about its own fate (being co-opted by capital).
