Though, Central genuinely reminds me of a socially-conscious, non-alcoholic, and competent Mallory Archer (if only Decker were her son). Invisible, Inc.‘s plot is reminiscent of the Mission: Impossible and James Bond series of films with Invisible acting as the IMF or MI6 and Central as M. What’s worse: Incognita (the AI entity) can only survive away from its system for 72 hours, so you’ll need to do it all by then. The corporations nearly completely destroyed Invisible and it is up to you to strike back by raiding corporate facilities to gain funding, tech, weaponry, and software leading up to a final showdown with them. You command the Invisible agents and must lead them to through many successful (or heartbreakingly unsuccessful) missions. Central escapes, taking Invisible’s artificial intelligence entity – Incognita – along with her on an external drive before Decker and Internationale extract her on the roof. But, as Agents Decker and Internationale are finding their work a little too easy, Invisible is breached by corporate-owned mercenaries who begin killing everyone. Set in 2074, in a time when “big business” rules the world with a cybernetic fist, the game opens on the headquarters of Invisible Incorporated, where the leader – Central – and team of agents are working to ensure the mission currently happening does so flawlessly. And not just new, but maybe even something wholly brilliant in its own right. But the team at Klei takes the best elements of each and makes something completely new with Invisible, Inc. I know, I know: that mouthful sounds like a lot of game styles seemingly stapled on top of one another like the Frankenstein’s monster of video games. is a cyberpunk spy game with isometric, turn-based strategy and stealth gameplay in procedurally-generated levels. With that said, comparing it to other games and franchises does it a disservice. Imagine a game that takes what you love from the XCOM and Splinter Cell games, with a dash of Klei’s Mark of the Ninja, and throw it into a cyberpunk world: that’s Invisible, Inc. The development team at Klei Entertainment may just have a new indie darling under their belts once again with their new title. Platforms: PC (Reviewed), Mac, Linux/SteamOS, PS4 (TBA)
