About the Game
Sinless is a unique combination of a classic point and click and a visual novel with many references and inspirations from classics of the genre, such as Snatcher, or Rise of the Dragon. Add to that custom, in-house designed lighting and parallax effects, along with a dedicated awesome Soundtrack and original storyline, we hope you will enjoy your stay!
Welcome to the Omni-Care sanctioned city. The world as we know it has come to an end and a New Order has taken over. Life is seemingly perfect, in an almost utopian society humans have to officially schedule their whole days in advance via "ports" - mandatory cybernetic implants. Large commercial entities who also happen to be port manufacturers have replaced governments and crime is practically non existent. You are the hero of this exciting cyberpunk tale, about to start a regular day, only for it to unfold in the most unexpected manner revealing the true nature of the multi-layered city.
- A unique, carefully planned out story and lore: It is important to remember that you are thrown into a world of specific rules, laws, customs, lingo, social segregation etc which you will learn and unravel in time along the way.
- Old school gameplay: meaning little to no handholding. We wanted to give the player the choice of freedom and to discover and unravel the story at their own pace, hence Sinless offers little to no handholding. Therefore many features or lore related backstories/explanations are not thrown in your face. Instead they are somewhere in the world, waiting to be discovered; be it a feature, Easter Egg/game reference, or world news event etc. But fear not, optional hints highlighting interactive points will be available from the get-go.
- Hand crafted with love: Thousands of frames of hand crafted animations, graphics,textures and other assets. We put a lot of effort and attention to the lore and story as well as the general vibe- that the graphics and soundtrack complement themselves to create the desired tone.
- A fitting and engaging dynamic Original Soundtrack by Roland Redwood, designed and tailored specifically for the game.
- Custom inhouse designed visual features: Taking the extra horsepower of computers to good use, the Steam edition of Sinless underwent a serious overhaul. For aesthetic reasons the game was originally designed in a 4:3 aspect ratio. Now, after countless hours of work, all assets have been reworked for a new 3:2 and 16:9 aspect ratio, with even more cool, custom inhouse designed lighting and post effects. We intensified the particle and weather effects as well, as well as reworked other assets to higher resolutions.
- Game Over: when we said "old school" experience we were dead serious. You will die...alot. Well, maybe not that much as in the Souls series, but unless you are a point n' click pro, an unexpected end to your journey will be commonplace. Heck, we even took it a level further where discovering all possible endgames is a feature and accomplishment within itself. Luckily there's a checkpoint system which will take you back to the last safe point. And fear not, we left it at that (so no trolling in the vein of which some old school classics are notorious for example AITD, where you could break a mandatory quest item at the very beginning of the game)... but we can never be sure of what the future may bring... ;)
- Easter Eggs & references. Yup, we got that covered. Sinless is a love letter to classic games,systems and news, both old and new. Rise of the Dragon, Dredd (2013), Deus Ex, Dark Souls, Sleeping Dogs.... the list goes on and on. Will you find them all?
- Stay safe Citizen. And don't forget to install your scheduled Progs!

Sinless provides a captivating blend of cyberpunk aesthetics with a unique visual novel structure. The game thrives on its richly designed world and thought-provoking themes, making it more than just a typical point-and-click adventure. Its vibrant, hand-drawn art style complements the dystopian narrative, creating an atmosphere that pulls you in immediately.
The decision-making system is well-executed, encouraging players to explore multiple pathways, but there's still room for expanding character depth. Overall, it’s an engaging experience that rewards curiosity and careful attention to detail.
Time Investment: 20 hours
Completion: 100%
Value Rating: 8.5/10
Stay focused. Keep grinding.
I seriously had no idea what to do for nearly the entire game and used a walkthrough, but I recommend it for the cool and immersive art.
Also, don’t change the resolution in the settings… you will have a bad time trying to fix it.
This is by definition a cyberpunk point and click game. It is short. It will not be continued. Apparently. Get this if you want something a little bit different for you cyberpunk fix. But only get it for free or on a DEEP discount. I think I got this in a bundle or from humble bundle or such. Could be wrong and I might have just gotten it on sale. That being said DO NOT pay full price for this. I know it's 5 bucks. It's not worth 5 bucks. If they ever continue the story then maybe it will be worth 5 bucks. But it's been 9 years as of this review and yea. Hope this helped. Also you can mute the music and noise. I did so after like 10 minutes.
Positive Review of Sinless Game
Wendrex wrote:
Overview: Sinless is an indie game that combines graphic adventure elements with an engaging narrative and a unique visual aesthetic. Released with a style reminiscent of classic point-and-click games, the game presents a dystopian and intriguing storyline in a future where morality and law are central themes.
Story and Plot: Sinless' story is set in a futuristic world where an oppressive regime controls society, and individuals' moral choices are strictly monitored. The protagonist is a detective who finds himself immersed in a complex web of crime and corruption. The plot is well constructed, offering the player an engaging narrative with unexpected twists and turns and well-developed characters. The depth of the plot allows for complete immersion in the game's universe, stimulating critical thinking on topics such as ethics and freedom.
Gameplay: Sinless' gameplay stands out for its combination of traditional graphic adventure mechanics with a choice system that influences the outcome of the story. The puzzles are challenging and well-crafted, keeping the player engaged without resorting to frustrating solutions. Interaction with the environment and characters is fluid, and the choices made throughout the game have a real impact on the narrative, which adds a significant element of replayability.
Aesthetics and Design: Sinless’ visual design is one of its greatest strengths. With an aesthetic that blends cyberpunk influences with elements of art noir, the game creates an immersive and visually stunning environment. The dark color palette and meticulous detail of the environments help convey the oppressive atmosphere of the futuristic world in which the game is set. The art is complemented by an intuitive interface and character design that helps bring the story to life.
Soundtrack (OST): Sinless’ soundtrack is an essential component that enhances the gameplay experience. Composed of a mix of electronic sounds and ambient atmospheres, the OST perfectly reflects the dystopian tone of the game. The music is strategically placed to heighten tension during critical moments and provide a sense of immersion during exploration. The quality of the sound design is high, and the music contributes significantly to the game’s mood-building and emotional depth.
Conclusion
Sinless is an enriching gaming experience that combines a deep narrative, engaging gameplay, and striking visual aesthetics. Its soundtrack effectively complements the dystopian atmosphere, making the immersion even more intense. If you enjoy games that challenge your problem-solving skills and offer reflection on moral issues, Sinless is an excellent recommendation. The synergy between the narrative, gameplay, and soundtrack makes this game a worthy addition to the graphic adventure genre.
Two Words: Holy Cr*p.
What an Amazing game. The visuals blew my mind.
This isn't exactly a 2 hour game like others have mentioned, it took me 6 hours, but maybe I'm just slow at comprehending Novel based games.
I've honestly Never ever played a game like this in my life. I've now finished it and it's up there in the Top 10.
I only paid about 40 cents since it was on offer, but the Devs deserve So much more.
The story was incredible and the visuals are amazing.
11/10
5 Stars
Great Game.
Thumbs up! I liked the cyberpunk atmosphere. The ending was a little disappointing though. This game was originally intended to be the first part of a trilogy, but they haven’t made the sequels, so there is no resolution to the story. It’s possible that they might make the sequels eventually, but I don’t expect that to happen anytime soon. However, if you can live with an unresolved cliffhanger, then this game isn’t bad. Especially considering the price. It often goes on sale for 49 cents and for that you get achievements and trading cards and they throw in the soundtrack as well. I think that’s a pretty good deal.
The game itself is a fairly easy point and click adventure. I was able to finish it without a walkthrough, but I needed a walkthrough in order to get all the achievements. The hardest ones to get were for scoring high enough in the arcade mini-games. They were hard, but not so hard as to be nearly impossible. It may take some practice to beat them, but it is possible. That’s another reason for the thumbs up. Too many other games have achievements which just aren’t reasonable.
Wild to see that only 11% of people have even started this game, going by the global achievement stats.
Really enjoyable little cyberpunk VN/Point-and-click. Great artstyle and OST.
Obvious issues are that it's an obvious phone game port. Things like text and certain graphical elements are way too big on something larger than a 7" phone screen and can be hard to read. With some tweaks, this could be really great.
It's a fairly short game, and pretty much linear, but it looks and sounds really good. The story is engaging, and a nice take on cyberpunk literature, although not anything massively original if you're familiar the genre. All the situations and interactions seem fairly logical and realistic too.
There are a couple of arcade mini-games thrown in, which are fun little diversions, but not required playing, and puzzle sections which could do with a slightly longer time limit to avoid being frustrating, but this isn't too bad.
It's not a game that'll keep you coming back, but it's good for a couple of hours, and well worth the very cheap price I paid.
Pros:
Graphics
Music & Sound
Engaging story
Cons:
Short length
Time limit on puzzles
This is a pretty cool little adventure game, but unfortunately it ends on a cliffhanger and the further chapters have never been finshed. The art & character designs and especially the MUSIC make the game, and it does some REALLY cool stuff with parallaxing & post-processing to give a world composed out of 2D art a ton of depth and vibrancy. For just a few bucks, it's worth checking out, IMHO. Here's hoping the other two chapters get finished & story gets concluded some day.
Wow, what a fun point and click game. The music is great, story is great, artwork is amazing. This game captures the techno futuristic dystopia perfectly.
Overall its a little short (2 hours) but often on sale for 50 cents. Definately worth checking out on a lazy chill afternoon, even if you dont play a lot of point and click games.
The only real downside is the ending of the game which appears to leave room for sequals even though since release the devs have mentioned there will never be a sequal. It still stands well on its own though. The ending doesnt leave you completely hanging, it fits.
Also it comes with the soundtrack for free and the music is great, sometimes dark but very chill and spacey.
Sinless.. a game that I loved so much and which disappointed me too.. Hard to say if I recommend it. Sinless is a point 'n click game that tears me apart, like not many do.
There is a very good storyline on a real and deep cyberpunk background I really much appreciated. It's not often that a game leads to such more or less inner philosophical and topical questionning. Is this what awaits us? Is that the kind of society we want for tomorrow? And so on.
Sadly Sinless is too much of a visual novel. There's not much to play with, nothing to do, no interesting enough puzzles. I felt like something was missing, although I ran through it till the end because the story was good enough.
I can't say much about the graphics. Perfect for the cyberpunk atmosphere but quite simple and a bit pixelised or blury. That's fine by me since it doesn't hurt the eyes and it goes with the art style of the game. But some might dislike.
I enjoyed the retro underground musics here and there.
I keep my thumb up because the story has a lot of interesting aspects that deserve to be defended. The universe beyond is gigantic. If you're interested in prospective or Sci-Fi novels you should enjoy it. If you feel like being interested but are reluctant to play a game which is actually only a short story, get it on sale!
The good
Awesome art style
Raging music
Intriguing story and setting - would love to see more of this world
Good addition to the cyberpunk/neo-noir canon
The game leaves you hanging for more
The bad
Those timed puzzles
Too short
No replay value
Sinless is a nice little point and click that has a cyberpunk art style that I found to be decent.
Pros:
- Soundtrack
- Art Style
Cons:
- Need to be online to play
- It can be difficult to figure out how to progress in the game
A cyberpunk point and click adventure with lots of refrences to similar games, movies, and anime like Ghost in the Shell and Deus Ex. The music is fantastic and the story and mythology are very interesting.
I beat it in 2 hours, so it's not a long game, but there's some replay value to get different endings.
It's also planned as a trilogy, with this being only the first part.
Definitely looking forward to part 2.
Sinless is a short point & click adventure game. I finished the game in less than three hours. That includes playing the two minigames for a while in an attempt to get the Steam achievements for them. So I guess the main game takes only about two hours.
In the end, Sinless felt more like an interactive short story than a game, mostly because it was pretty easy to solve and because it felt very linear, even for an adventure game. The story's setting and characters are all weird but in an interesting way. A commendable effort was made to create a unique futuristic world with its own social structure and lore.
The story has an ending of sorts but it leaves more questions than it provided answers. Some people like open endings, others don't, but let's say in this case it's very, very much open-ended. According to a lot of reviews and discussions, a sequel was always supposed to be made to continue the story, which would make sense.
Technically, I had a perfect experience with Sinless (no bugs, no crashes), but one thing I do have to mention: you see a 'loading...' screen for a few seconds every time you go to another screen, which is very often. Sometimes, when you know you need to go to a place that's 5 screens away, you'll be looking at more 'loading...' screens than actual game screens for half a minute. And when you know where you need to go but you don't remember how to get there exactly, you'll feel the urge to grab a guide, just to avoid as much of those pesky 'loading...' screens as possible.
A word about the typical Steam features. Sinless has six trading cards. You'll get three from running the game. The achievements are mostly easily obtained, but:
- one or two of the achievements for the minigames may be difficult to obtain because their controls are pretty clumsy
[*] quite a few of the achievements are easily missed because they're obtained by doing totally optional stuff e.g. click three times on a poster or npc
I hope this helps you decide whether to buy Sinless or not. As for the question 'Do you recommend this game?' that Steam needs answered, I think I have to put it this way: it very much depends on the price. I bought this game for 49 cents (-90%). In that case: yes, I certainly recommend Sinless if you're at all interested in point & click adventure games and/or (weird, dystopian) futuristic fantasy worlds and stories. But at its full price of a fiver? No, I wouldn't recommend it. It's too short and too open-ended to stand out among the dozens of stories/experiences to be found on Steam these days.
Obviously the developers did a labour of love. The art style and music makes the game very enjoyable.
I didn't finish the game yet but judging from my first impression it's well worth the 0.49 €. Even if you hate point and clickers the included OST alone is worth the money.
Compared with the trash that's on offer for a bargain bin price this is a true gem.
I could have done without the obnoxious 'i' for inventory and the persistent gear symbol for settings on the left and right upper corners of the game screen though.
I had some issues persuading the game to run in 4k but after manual installation of the
vcredist files and verification of game files I got it working without a hitch.
All in all I give it 7/10 and recommend if you like a futuristic feel and some cool music in your games.
Edit: I forgot to mention the game has trading cards and for you achievement hunters the achievements seem rather easy to get.
Updare: The abrupt ending after chapter 3 leaves me hoping that the developers will
find the time and funding to make a sequel.
honestly pretty decent, but no saving other than one autosave, so if you bug near end and it saves it like that ( and it pretty much will) you will have to start over. which sucks because i want to recommend it but, no.
Waste of money.
The game is buggy, several of the things you click will freeze the game causing you to lose progress repeatedly.
It's not fun, especially having to leave an area to pick up an item and walk back. That's just pointless padding to add to gameplay time, nothing happens between the events.
Of course it has a boring poorly written sci-fi story to go along.
This game should come with a coupon for anti-depressants or at least a black box warning if you plan on completing it.
This game has amazing visuals, a very interesting world and premise, but the writing could be more engaging, as I never felt attached to my character or really curious about what was going on. Right now, there is only one chapter of this game complete. I'll update this review as the rest is released, but right now I cannot recommend this. Not the worse game ever, but not the most interesting P&C game.
Sinless is a cyberpunk point and click adventure game, and manages to be dizzyingly beautiful and an aural treat, dragged down by everything else. This is part one of a three part trilogy, and unfortunetly there is no satisfying conclusion yet. The story isn't terribly interesting and unfortunetly filled full of contemporary video game references. It feels cheap and I can't say I really care for the developer's taste in games. The characters are pretty much stock standard and the dialogue is just ok. It really just doesn't bring any interesting ideas to the table, it's mostly full of tropes. I could excuse this if there was a philosophical theme, but this doesn't really happen, the game takes a more action approach and prefers to dazzle with it's atmosphere.
Where the game truly shines is it's ability to create an immersive environment. This is a game you want to wear headphones with, the music and sound effects really bring you into the world. The visual design is quite unique and uses massive amounts of lens flair and bloom on the lighting, as well as blurring and pixilating everything. And it works well. If you take a close look, it looks like quite a lot of the assets are actually photographs put through a filter. I'd consider this a cheap way for the developers to create assets, but it works fine for most of the part. The asthetic is something resembling Deus Ex: Human Revolution if it were set in Japan. It's not 80's cyberpunk, but it still has a lot of the Asian influence. The game also delivers on the classic bleak rain, neon lights, dark alleys, illict augs and a lot of drugs. It's used somewhat sparingly and works well in the games context.
However, I had quite a lot of difficulty navigating through the city. Unfortunetly, the visual design doesn't lend itself to guiding the player well. Unless you take note of everything on the screen, you may find yourself not knowing how to continue. I'm fine with a bit of exploration, but it's never clear exactly where you can go. I also found it easy to miss dialogue options, as the section requires you to click and drag to scroll and will often add new options without marking or otherwise bringing them to your attention. Like most players, I go from top to bottom in the dialogue list, but I've seen cases where the options are added above your last clicked dialogue option, making it a little confusing.
As of the first release, there are a number of issues with graphics failing to load, leaving you with a black screen or only part of the scene. At this point, the only thing to do is to reset. Luckily, the game will always bring you back to where you are, so it's not a big deal, but still an annoyance. I expect this will be patched fairly quickly.
Although Sinless fails on many fronts, I feel it's definetely worth the small amount of money, just to experience the atomosphere. I got around 2 hours of playtime out of it, and I'm quite happy with the game and am anticipating the second part.
Played roughly half an hour-- will update review and maybe give it half an hour more, but honestly?
It wants to be cyberpunk, but it isn't. Nor is it enjoyable.
It uses so many generic elements that it feels like no more than a throwup of uninteresting and overused tropes. I don't see what I'm supposed to appreciate about Sinless. The setting is probably one of the most cliche dystopian settings, in which government uses 'chips' to control minds, yada.
Visuals look nice from the screenshots, but holy damn do they go overboard with the lighting-- often to the point that you can't even see what's going on.
Characters are generally flat, boring, and uninteresting. No presence of tone, word choice, or personality differentation between characters. Conversation and dialogue may as well have been done by robots, seeing how generic and one-dimensional every single character happens to be. Seriously, they might as well all just be the same person. I wouldn't know. Even with 'dialogue choices', everything you can talk about simply bores you to tears.
Save your money. Go try something with an original concept and actual cyberpunk flair like Gemini Rue. This isn't worth it.
