Just like Dungeon Alchemist and For The King, Citizen Sleeper takes inspiration from tabletop RPGs in the form of a dice mechanic that shapes players' actions and decisions in a variety of unique and unforeseen ways. The game has a planned release date of May 5, 2022.
Interplanetary capitalism
Citizen Sleeper is set inside a space station that's worse for wear called Erlin's Eye. Among the inhabitants of this lawless place that has succumbed to interplanetary capitalism is a ragtag group of outcasts looking to rise above their less-than-ideal situation. This motley crew consists of characters of all sorts, from hackers to mercenaries, and even your average joe just looking to make a better life.
Think of this game as a sort of slice-of-life RPG with a dark and mature narrative inspired by classic tabletop games. You play as a Sleeper, a digital human consciousness inside an artificial body, who is the property of the conglomerate Essen-Arp. With your current form slowly deteriorating, you'll need to navigate the station's shady backways, form alliances, and earn credits for upgrades to stay alive.
The RPG utilizes a dice roll system that affects the choices you make and their consequences. Drives (Quests) will shape your five skills and determine your way of life. If all of this appeals to you, there's some waiting left to be done as it's not officially out yet. Check its official Steam page for any news leading up to its May 5, 2022 planned release date.
Don't sleep on it
Overall, Citizen Sleeper is a refreshing take on the tabletop RPG genre with its unique cyberpunk themes and intriguing narrative. Its world is crafted beautifully and features a wide cast of characters to know. The dice roll system affects the gameplay in interesting ways and will provide plenty of replayability in succeeding playthroughs. This game is definitely worth keeping an eye out for.
