The plot of

Neon Blood spreads before us a grim vision of the future after World War III, in which the last bastion of humanity became Viridis. We are talking about a gigantic macropolis consisting of the Bright City inhabited by the richest and the Blind City, home to representatives of the lower classes.

The game is set in 2053, and its main protagonist is Axel McCoin, a former detective and now an idealist, who has taken it upon himself to fight against the unsteadiness and expose a conspiracy reaching the highest levels of government. Although his enterprise is a salt in the eye of the elite, whose personification is the sinister Ruby Emerald, which makes it extremely dangerous, the protagonist is not doomed to cross alone; for he can count on the help of other revolutionaries.

Gameplay

In Neon Blood, the action is viewed from the side. The driving force of the game is the investigation led by McCoin, which pushes us into various corners of Viridis. The adventure leads us through atmospheric locations, such as Hunter Heaven, bathed in the glow of neon lights, or the subway tunnels, plunged in darkness and resembling a maze.

While traversing them, we get to know their inhabitants and conduct conversations with them. In this way we not only learn more about them, but also about the problems they face. In this way, step by step, we get to know who is pulling the strings in the mega-city and where the prevailing irregularities come from.

In the implementation of the tasks we are hindered by enemies. Clashes with enemies take place in turn-based mode, during which we lead both Alex and his allies into battle. On the battlefield we have to demonstrate tactical sense, skillfully using the abilities and equipment of the hero and his allies.
