A love letter to the late '90s/early '00s internet - bizarre websites, wacky programs, fancy mouse cursors... everything's here with such a charm that'll definitely awaken your inner child. And it's not just Cyberspace itself, you also get to customise your desktop with all types of weird stuff you download around. Hell, piracy is even a thing! Not that you should do that considering you're an enforcer.

As a "Hypnospace Enforcer" your job is to police and report outlaws - sounds easy but turns out these lawbreakers can be extremely smart by having hidden pages and quite difficult puzzles. Honestly I can't really blame anyone using a walkthrough because these can be rough, however I'd say part of the game is being lost inside this world full of life in which you get to stalk and learn about people who don't exist.

Playing Hypnospace Outlaw feels like going through a portal to another dimension, an alternative reality in which Neuromancer's definition of cyberspace acquires a nostalgic shape. I lack words to describe this game, other than strongly recommending you to play it.
