Starts strong but becomes extremely tedious
Mainlining is a hacked/detective sim on an emulated pc - a genre im a huge fan of. It starts out perfect, with little clues and deductive reasoning, you slowly unravel a case.
But Jesus, it gets so tedious. Every chapter you have to type the same lines of code just to download documents, and it never becomes a shortcut. Gets so old. The story, the multitude of characters, etc get extremely complex and impossible to follow.
If it was just the first couple chapters, I would easily recommend. But the game doesn’t develop and build in a good way - it stays stuck and stops working.
