You control a team of four agents, each with distinct and unique abilities, collectively battling for control of a simulated, living cyberpunk city.\n\nCustomise your team with the strength to destroy your enemies head-on, or hack into their facilities to manipulate their infrastructure without them ever knowing you were even there.\n\nWill you take down your enemies with brute-force? Covert espionage and infiltration? Or will you use propaganda to influence the citizens of the city and overthrow the controlling powers?\n\nThe world's governments are controlled by mega-corporations, democracy to the highest bidder. Society is structured for the benefit of those in power. The poor exist in the dark squalid underbelly of the city, while the wealthy swim in opulence and luxury on the upper tiers, and the vast middle-class are too comfortable with their lives of convenience to see the world for what it really is. Corporate police patrol the streets, brutally maintaining the status quo, all under the guise of keeping the people safe. The time for change is now, as a mysterious organisation rises from the slums of the city. They'll have to bribe, steal, hack, kill and augment their way through the barriers between them and their ultimate goal...but what are they trying to achieve? To free the masses from the corporate stranglehold, or to take control for themselves? That, is up to you.","96683\u002Fsatellite-reign-cover.jpg","96683\u002Fsatellite-reign-header.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fyoutu.be\u002F5L3AeCib1F8","2015-08-27",76.67,11577,"satellite-reign",268870,[19],{"company":20,"developed":22,"published":22},{"name":21},"5 Lives Studios",true,[24,25,26],"Real Time Strategy (RTS)","Strategy","Indie",[28],"PC (Microsoft Windows)",[30,46,62,77,92,105,118],{"id":31,"author":32,"outlet":35,"summary":41,"review_url":42,"review_date":43,"original_score":44,"normalized_score":45},31875,{"id":33,"name":34},2303,"Andy Kelly",{"id":36,"logo":37,"name":38,"website_url":39,"score_format":40},35,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FPCGamer-Logo.jpg","PC Gamer","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.pcgamer.com\u002F","100","","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.pcgamer.com\u002Fsatellite-reign-review\u002F","2015-08-24","80",80,{"id":47,"author":48,"outlet":51,"summary":57,"review_url":58,"review_date":59,"original_score":60,"normalized_score":61},27606,{"id":49,"name":50},2929,"Don Saas",{"id":52,"logo":53,"name":54,"website_url":55,"score_format":56},28,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGameSpot-Logo.jpg","GameSpot","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamespot.com","10","Hard-Boiled Cyberpunk Land and The Questionable AI At The End Of The World","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamespot.com\u002Freviews\u002Fsatellite-reign-review\u002F1900-6416244\u002F","2015-09-16","6.0",60,{"id":63,"author":64,"outlet":67,"summary":72,"review_url":73,"review_date":74,"original_score":75,"normalized_score":76},64023,{"id":65,"name":66},2822,"Guest Post",{"id":68,"logo":69,"name":70,"website_url":71,"score_format":56},27,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGameSpew-Logo.jpg","GameSpew","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamespew.com","Satellite Reign is a great game. It really is. I usually don’t buy into hype surrounding new games but this is really worth  giving your attention to. If you are into strategy games or if you enjoy cyberpunk style environments, then this is the game for you. It may not be the most welcoming to those unfamiliar to the genre, but if you take your time it’s definitely worth the effort. The environments look beautiful, the controls are tight and the sheer amount of options you have for progression really makes this an interesting experience. Give it a go.

Efficiency rules over emergent accident and emergency, and the game is tight and well-crafted. My favourite moments involved tense tactical infiltrations, using every agent's skillset to temporarily disable cameras and locks. At its best, Satellite Reign has more in common with Commandos than Syndicate. It's a splendid construct, built to endure and to sustain repeated playthroughs in various styles, but I can't shake the feeling that, minute by minute, a little more chaos and unpredictability would go a long way.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.rockpapershotgun.com\u002Fsatellite-reign-review","2015-08-28",null,{"id":93,"author":94,"outlet":97,"summary":102,"review_url":103,"review_date":90,"original_score":104,"normalized_score":45},84018,{"id":95,"name":96},4492,"Darius Matusiak",{"id":98,"logo":99,"name":100,"website_url":101,"score_format":56},47,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002Fgamepressure-logo.jpg","GamePressure","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamepressure.com\u002F","The only reasonable explanation for Satellite Reign to be called as it is, are the copyright issues.
