PAMELA
P.A.M.E.L.A. is an intense open-world survival horror game set in Eden, a fallen Utopian city. Play as a Sleeper, awoken from cryosleep in Eden, a fallen utopia wrought with death and danger. Utilize a wide range of hi-tech weapons, equipment, and build-able items that can be upgraded to suit your needs. Meet PAMELA, an omnipresent AI overseer who is left alone watching over the once-vibrant city, now reduced to a silent monolith gliding across the ocean. Interact with various factions, including the Afflicted citizens, security droids, robotic custodians, and more mysterious denizens hidden within Eden's depths. Each faction exhibits its own unique behaviors and alliances, and will react dynamically to the player’s behavior to become allies, or enemies. Experience tense gameplay in a richly developed sci-fi universe. Each decision is meaningful, and each encounter could be your last.

Was going to quit this game quite a few times within the first couple of hours. Decided out of stubbornness to continue. Be prepared to play a game that doesn't give two F's about hand holding you at any point. You will spend most of your time just searching for what you require and how to use it. Also; the map is huge and it's easy to get lost. I am glad I finished it and if you want to play something that will test your patience then I recommend this game. If your prone to rage quit a game when it gets difficult then this game isn't for you.

A hidden gem of a game. It may be a little rough around the edges but its well worth your time and money. A very enjoyable game that died too soon. If you have any interest pick it up, it really is a fun experience if you give it a chance.

I love survival games, especially ones with lots of progression and looting. (base building, exploration, tasty) This game was great. I don't think it is all it promised to be and the ending falls flat with some unpolished parts (abandon-ware is an appropriate word), but my computer ran it well and it was gorgeous. I'd definitely buy this game again. Would recommend it to anyone who is addicted to survival games. (It is not worth $25. Don't pay full price)
The combat was good. There is a point where it is very overwhelming and difficult till you manage to get some decently upgraded weapons. (Small Spoiler) My biggest difficulty was the dark seekers who I couldn't beat until I had a better kit, and they spawn in after so many nights, which puts a cap on how long you can survive. Fortunately your dead body and progress sticks around and you can respawn as a new sleeper, so it isn't game ending, but definitely a challenge I felt accomplished overcoming. My favorite part was the multitude of ways you can upgrade yourself, which is a big plus for any game I play. The environment also feels cool, seekers fighting infected, etc. All the locations were immersive (until you go underneath the city or to the bot lab or nanite leaks (game definitely didn't seem finished in those areas).

Wish this wasn't abandoned. This game has one of the coolest settings I've ever experienced. Such a shame :(

Wow, what a game!
This is as good as System Shock (I and II).
Almost no handholding, nice rpg elements, beautiful modern surroundings with from time to time stunning lighting, very large and detailed map.
Fighting seemed too difficult, until I learned to use energy-management and basebuillding properly and changed the odds in my favor.
Enemy ai is good, although pathing could be a little better.
9,5/10

P.a.m.e.l.a Its Good Game it got a lot of charm.
good Combat great immersion good story Its an underrated gem.
i just beat the game. So it is a Complete Game. A good one to.
As for bugs there are some but there a easy way to fix A LOT of them.
Here's how to fix like 95% of the game breaking bugs
(go to Options then General scroll down to Tutorial set it to Never )
that fixes 95% of the bugs i do not no way but it worked for me.
There is no hand holding in the story but the tutorial being off will not be missed i think it popping up makes the game bug out or mouse lockup. O and game length 21+ to 40+ hours i think. your time may vary i did it 21.9 hours.
I played it when it was in beta that helped my time i think and then forgot it for like 4 or 5 years..... it why my play times 102 hours. o and the loot is all random that help replayability.
anyway hope that helps someone.

It's alright, but sometimes you're just wandering around wondering what your next move is. Losing your entire inventory, including equipment is rough.
