🕹️ New release: Lunar Lander Beyond

Syndicate

aka: BOB, Cyber Assault, Higher Functions
Moby ID: 281

DOS version

An original, addictive game...

The Good
The gameplay between missions is one of my favorate parts, building up a team of players with their different equipment and weapons is very rewarding. Salvaging equipment from the missions to increase your nestegg is a nice touch.

Missions are fun and fast paced and certain to get the adrenaline running. After all that hard work building a team with version 3 equipment, it would be a shame if one of them dies...

My favorate part af the game is watching the flamer do it's job; the gauss gun kicks some major butt also.

The Bad
God, why are the path finding abilities so bad? Don't click the mouse far away from your squad, or one of them is certain to go off on a dumb course and which most certainly will be the death of them.



The Bottom Line
Syndicate is an action packed game with enough elements of a strategy to keep my playing this long past my bedtime.
