Overview
Description

Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world action-adventure game set in Night City, a sprawling metropolis driven by power, glamour, and body modification. Players assume the role of V, a mercenary outlaw in pursuit of a unique implant that holds the key to immortality, navigating a world where mega-corporations operate above the law. In a gritty future defined by cyberware, violent crime, and extreme poverty, your choices directly influence both the narrative and the world around you. Experience deep role-playing customization of skills, cybernetics, and playstyle as you carve your own legend in the streets of Night City.

Kentucky Route Zero is a magical realist adventure game about a hidden highway that winds through the caves beneath Kentucky, following the mysterious travelers who use it. Inspired by classic point-and-click titles, the game emphasizes atmosphere, characterization, and storytelling over complex puzzles. The experience unfolds across multiple acts, blending surreal visuals with an original electronic score and folk recordings to create a haunting, immersive world. Developed and published by Cardboard Computer, with Netflix as a co‑publisher, it is available on Linux, Android, PC, iOS, and Mac.
