The premise, in the publisher's words
Brilliant, burnt-out, possibly cursed – you play as operant Hershel Wilk, alias CASCADE. Five years ago you led your team into the abyss and have been haunted by your failures ever since. Now you've been recalled for a mysterious assignment that may give you a chance to prove yourself again. Fulfil the demands of your assignment by hunting down secrets hidden within the architecture of both the city and the human mind. Collaborate and clash with informants, loyalists, and agitators. Pass skill checks to get them to open up and improve your abilities with the experience you receive. The choices you make affect everything: the loyalty of your friends, the paths you can take, and the fragility…

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5 6500, 16 GB RAM and Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
