“A little indie gem... beautiful graphic and ambience...if you like cyberpunk games you will like this game as well... Buy it and get the collector edition... 10/10”
“Finished the game in about 8 hours finishing about 40% of the side quests. The combat felt really fluid and fun with the selection of melee weapons. Amok felt kinda flat with how little you really use it. Finally the…”
“Very immersive environment, the visuals are very appealing and there are so many areas to explore. The pixel art is very cute and the outfits are also a nice addition. I wish I could find more games like this.”

“Anno Mutationem is an enjoyable little experience. It has it's issues but I enjoyed the game overall. First off, the game looks very pretty. The Cyberpunk aesthetic is spot on, it's got a lot of attention to detail, I…”

“As much as I tried to enjoy the game, there was just so much long corridors, much walking, forced fights, and some of the bosses kind of pissed me off either too easy, too hard, or just unfair. The story was pretty…”
“I wanted to like it, but it's just not that great: - Gameplay is buggy in a lot of places - Switching between 3d "move around" mode and 2d "combat mode" is kind of awkward - The story is honestly pretty terrible. It's…”

“Gets too grindy and too hard even on easy by the end. Not enough meaningful upgrades, enemies have too much HP. Gets tedious and frustrating.”

“Very climactic, i would change the combat a bit to be more fluid and cancelable. But overall i had fun and I think i will finish this one.”

“What's good: - Satisfying combat - Great art style - Fantastic animations - Very detailed world with a lot of different and well fashioned npcs What's not so good: - The side quests were pretty pointless and unrewarding - The writing is ehh..all over the place. Felt like it was…”
— a player, Steam review · 9 hrs played“For $25 absolutely not. But if you can get it for around $10 or in a humble/fanatical bundle, sure. The graphics are the highlight on the surface, but the animations and cutscenes are rather low quality so it very quickly loses its magic. Combat is serviceable though very…”
— a player, Steam review · 14 hrs played“ANNO: Mutationem is at least two games in a trenchcoat, that has been stitched together and covered in objectively beautiful pseudo-3D pixelart cyberpunk aesthetics. It's a mix of simplistic investigation and dialogue systems, and a clunky brawler-type of combat system that is…”
