Observer
What would you do if your fears were hacked? Observer is a cyberpunk horror game from Bloober Team, the creators of Layers of Fear. Discover a dark cyberpunk world beset by plagues, war and squalor. Play as the new front line of neural police as you hack into the jagged minds of the insane. Features: Observe and Report – You are Dan Lazarski, an elite neural detective known as an Observer, and part of a corporate-funded police unit whose purpose is to hack and invade suspects’ minds. In this future, anything you think, feel, or remember can be used against you in a court of law. A Dark Dystopia – The year is 2084. If you somehow survived the Nanophage, odds are you were killed in the War. Those who live have turned to drugs, VR, neural implants— anything to distract themselves from this new reality. But they can’t hide from you.

True Detective of cyberpunk games.

it is a fun game full of mystery and sci-fi . It's not horribly scary, but will keep you locked in and wanting to play more levels.

What if David Lynch made a cyberpunk horror game?
If that sounds right up your alley, you are going to love this experience!
Some of the game mechanics need to be polished, but the visually stunning graphics as well as the story itself makes this game a worthy experience in my opinion.
This OG version is no longer available, but if you still want to check it out you should definitely check out Observer: System Redux! It is an enchanced version with 4K graphics, extra missions and some improvements on the gameplay mechanics.

This is crazy good. Game vice I give 8.6/10. And that may be understated.
Who ever reading this: ENJOY!

For an abandoned, buggy, 'lesser quality' graphic version of the game, it's great. Fantastic story and great visuals. The feel reminded me of Outlast. Everything is just a little unsettling. The gameplay for the most part feels like it's just there to move the story along, not much besides interviewing people, searching for clues and analyzing objects with your vision. Had they added something a little more to it, it would have been a little more satisfying. Overall, would recommend for sure. Haven't played the 'redux' version, but it seems even better.

This game does a great job at visual storytelling in an interesting cyberpunk environment. There was a glitch that caused the game to crash just after launch but it is an easy fix which you can find in the community forum for this game. It's a relatively short but gripping experience.

This is a weird and confusing game. It has a lot of glitch effects, things moving about, it's hard to know when you cross from one part of the story to the next (it's seamless), with the exception of reality segments. I liked how they used the screen glitch effect to portray your health, but not a lot of things damage you (mostly story-connected). It's a good commentary on the possible (really) dystopian future. I am still trying to piece together the story though, it seems so abstract at the moment - I might watch a recap. In some ways, it reminds me of Control from Remedy Entertainment, in that they really took a lot of liberty and creativity in making the setting, the characters, ... Idk, the story seems outlandish to me, like in Control. It's not really scary, but more like unsettling. I think I like it though. I'd recommend giving it a go. You do walk a lot, so there's that.
