Suprised this is on here.
-Janky cranky yanky loose wires theme, translation, mechanics and engine.
-Decent and kinda cool artstyle, animations too. Nice violence.
-interesting mod ideas or skill pathing. Charcter development looked interesting (what i could decipher)
-fun for a giggle.
--Very Bad balance/difficulty. All kinds of problems. Game breaking wrong choices.
-Rough and unplayable. It's really quite bad. This game is literally an old broken TV set you find on the curb, pick it up and dream all you want, but unless you got repair 120% and hack this game yourself it's going out to the curb again!
It took time to get working, or rathjer 'fixed as it was gonna get' and then you gotta click around in weird ways to get things going right inside the UI. (really messed up and weird UI windows IIRC) There are lots of save game breaking things and events (Dialogue trees that run out of gas, go nowhere etc.) A lot of it is made worse from the mistranslation and difficult to understand nature of the logs and objectives. Sometimes stuff is missing. At some point i just gave up. Still, it had the rustic charm of some strange mechanical …

Sometimes stuff is missing. At some point i just gave up. Still, it had the rustic charm of some strange mechanical oddity made out of junk, so it's not a 1 star outright, its just broken down junk (not a steaming pile) I would actually pick it up again and play it IF I could i hack my way past certain dialogue trees that ran out in... i want to say the third act? HAHA isnt that pathetic? I might have gotten further in this one than any otter Native-English speecher. XD
The graphic style was a big rope in for me because it looks right in the right ways. But really, do avoid this :P. Only reccomended if you are a game hacker and in the mood for a crusty piece of Fallouty junk. Make sure to hunt down those patches, (you still might catch the Zalgo) and reach for the Dean's Electronics. You'll also need a lot of luck, and a pretty high speech skill to make sense of this if you don't speak ze ру́сский. Or you could just do it russia style, drink vodka and play. Maybe I did it wrong? Vodka More Vodka!
It's possible that the game is better in pure russian, rather than translated, and that a translation patch/version is incomplete (or breaks it).
