In Transistor, you play the role of Red, a singer in a utopic futuristic society that has taken a turn for the worse, wielding the Transistor, a weapon that holds the soul of your recently deceased lover and might be the key to saving the world.

Transistor is a unique action adventure RPG that takes place in a beautiful and intriguing world.

Pros

  • Gameplay is an innovative mix between realtime action, turn-based tactics and strategic planning that feels great.
  • Diverse number of different playstyles is allowed by the variety of abilities and how they work with each other.
  • Character progression is meaningfully determined by the choices the player makes on every level up.
  • Enemies grow and get stronger over time making fighting them never dull.
  • Customizable difficulty rewards the player for taking on tougher challenges.
  • Art will blow your socks off.

Cons

  • Constant voice in your ear might be annoying for some players (if you played Bastion and loved the Narrator then you will probably love this too though!)
