Hell: A Cyberpunk Thriller - Gameplay

Gameplay

Hell: A Cyberpunk Thriller generally follows the conventional gameplay rules of point-and-click adventures, though with a particular focus on solving codes. Players can choose to have either Gideon Eshanti or Rachel Braque as their lead character, but this has no effect on the puzzles, only changing some story sequences near the end of the game. The player must also acquire several supporting party members throughout the game, each of whom comes with their own small inventory of items. Party size is limited, and if the player ejects one party member for a new one, the ejected party member will take all his items with him, even if they have been placed in someone else's inventory slots. However, party members can be re-recruited simply by visiting the spot where they were originally recruited.

Unlike most point-and-click adventure games, approaching some of the puzzles in Hell incorrectly results in a game over, with a brief cutscene in which Braque and Eshanti's deaths are reported to Solene Solux.
