Sounds like Cyberpunk 2077? Idk haven’t played it but it’s the same genre

Shadowrun, Deus Ex, Beyond a Steel Sky, Gamedec. Though I'd concur that the 1997 Blade Runner PC game is the best if you want Blade Runner.

Nope, in fact Kojima would then go on to make Lethal Weapon in Space next. And of course all those definitely-not-just-Snake-Plissken-we-promise games he's most famous for.

Do you like pointing and/or clicking? Allow me to recommend a couple of story heavy adventure games that fit the bill: Technobabylon (currently $4.50) store.steampowered.com/app/307580/T... and Whispers of a Machine (currently $3) store.steampowered.com/app/631570/W....

Cyberpunk 2077 is hands downnthe answer its not even close. If you wanna feel like your in a world like Blade runner, its Cyberpunk 2077 hands down. Amazing game too! Enjoy.

Marilyn Something @marilynbeagle.bsky.social

I think it depends a little on what you want to take from blade runner. The dark, soul crushing bleakness is disco elysium (it’s deep but weird too). The sci fi cybernetics and blurred vision of self is cyberpunk. I think cyberpunk wins, honestly. But you should play both.

Nathan Holbert @snowdaylearninglab.org

Disco Elysium is a masterpiece that everyone should absolutely play. Cyberpunk is more Blade Runner, though so probably what you’re looking for.

Developer Soup @developersoup.net

I can see both, but for very different reasons. Technically, there's the Blade Runner game, but that's point-and-click.

redstormpopcorn @wasteof.technology

It's legitimately good, but not enough people played it because it dropped toward the end of the point-and-click adventure heyday and it got stuck in licensing hell for a while until GOG got it sorted

regularJim @jamesqpurcell.bsky.social

I liked it a lot when I played it. But I'm also a major point-and-click fanboy, and its got some quirks even within its genre. It is on steep discount right now though, so there's no better time to try it. www.gog.com/en/game/blad...

I got it with PL already included or bought at the same time whatever, and I feel like I'm somehow 80% through the game but somehow my character is only 20% of what it should be. Not to mention they lock off the hair I want!

The later Blade Runner books obsessed a bit more over Deckard running away with the Rachel replicant so I thought maybe anthropomorphic dating sim might be the itch to scratch.
