Reviews
This game has been one of the most unique I've ever played. The visuals were great, and it felt like surfing an alternative version of the internet. Learning how to browse and solve the puzzles requires some patience, but it becomes much more enjoyable once everything starts to click. It was a strange and beautiful experience, but it's a shame that the sequel was cancelled.
The internet really was like this in the Nineties. I know, I have been online since 1995. Don't call me a boomer, call me Gen X. I code Python and JavaScript at work. I love the surreal retrocyberpunk style. I love this game. It is just perfect.

great little game, be aware it involves a lot of reading and paying attention so don't rush through or you'll need a guide. amazing soundtrack too, so many song got stuck in my head. highly recommend!
Очень крутой симулятор олдвеб с неплохим сюжетом, сильно передаёт атмосферу интернета 90х и начала 2000х

First off its a cool concept, however, there's too much going on. It is very confusing with vague/loose instructions. I didn't even make it through the first "mission" :(
It's easy to say that there are many good, fun games in this life, but hard to say that all of those have touched you. HypnoOS easily convinces you that what you are seeing is not a game, but your computer. R.I.P. the sequel. A demise announced on the starting edge of a o-25 summer sale.
If you grew up with this era of computing, or otherwise have an interest in it, you can not go wrong with this game. It's pretty funny, the soundtrack is fantastic, and there are a pretty great deal of hidden sites, files and media that will keep you looking for a while. With a game like this, it really needs to nail the atmosphere, or it sinks and fails entirely. I can happily report that Hypnospace Outlaw is exceedingly consistent in this regard (that is to say, it is excellent). Easy recommend to anyone who falls into the categories I mentioned at the beginning, and I do think it would be enjoyable to people outside of those ranges as well; just perhaps not to the same degree. The gameplay puzzles are quite enjoyable in their own right. 9/10
Wasn't sure what to expect exactly when i started it, but it was pretty fun :D If you love going into internet rabbitholes, then you might like this game. I also enjoyed the variety of music Only one critique i do have regarding the story, [spoiler] is that i found the ending to be on the weaker end. I had hoped that there would be more alternative endings, but that wasn't the case. You can avoid some deaths, but that doesn't really impact the story/gameplay [/spoiler] But regardless of that one critique, I really enjoyed it :) Can't be easy to mimic internet users with so many minor 'storylines'
y2k vm with vast fake web, kind of amazing soundtrack
