About
Set in the year 2083, Restricted Area is a cyberpunk-themed action RPG where four unique and very different characters progress independently through the same narrative. As they do so, the story is revealed from various angles - refreshingly different to the single narrative form of most RPGs.
The game's accent is on both action and RPG. On the one hand, the action elements are delivered via fast gameplay, the controls are more direct and the player will also find some shooter elements - switching between weapons without entering the inventory for example. On the other hand the game delivers RPG elements via a discussion system with real choices, a storyline with surprising twists and a complex but easy-to-use attribute and skill system.
As an outlaw for hire, you'll be sent into dangerous restricted areas set in a dark and fascinating future world.
