REPLACED review – A beautiful dystopia that doesn’t always play nice

In the surveillance-soaked dystopia of Phoenix City, survival isn’t just about staying alive—it’s about staying unseen. That means leaping across rooftops to avoid patrolled streets, sliding down collapsing rooftops to escape killer drones, and even hiding behind cleaning robots to mask your presence. 

That’s exactly the type of thrilling action you’ll get playing REPLACED, a new cyberpunk 2.5D action-adventure platformer out of Sad Cat Studios. And though the game isn’t without its flaws, it’s a visual and narrative standout that’s hard to look away from.
