Outlier is an awesome first-person puzzle adventure.
It takes place in a dark and immersive world where you need to use security cameras and computers to hack your way through a machine world. You’re a robot that’s the last of your kind and you need to escape from a hive mind computer that’s taking over all robots in the world. There are a lot of infected computers already, so you need to use your abilities to evade them and hack your way through security gates and cameras.
If you’ve played Watch Dogs, it’s kind of like that in a very, very loose manner. You need to hack cameras in order to guide beams of energy across a path to their destination. It’s a puzzle game where you need to figure out how mechanics work, but it’s not too difficult.
The game also has a few parts where you need to sneak around and dodge robots, but it’s kind of annoying because they move slowly across the environment and you’re just waiting the whole time. Either way, Outlier is a unique little puzzle adventure game that’s very atmospheric and wroth a play.
