Holonoptic

Holonoptic is a corporate management role-playing game set in a cyberpunk version of the Eurozone. After your predecessor vanishes and everyone else is fired, you become CEO of a company controlled by an artificial intelligence. You must rebuild and expand the company, making choices that can lead to your dismissal.

Story and factions

Your decisions shape an economic drama involving rebellious office drone unions, rogue corporate AIs and aristocratic plutocrats, each seeking to use you for their own ends. You can make pacts with shadow economy thieves, free-market globalists, parasitic unions or wealth-extracting aristocrats. The story also features AIs trying to control companies, transhumanists seeking pharmaceutical immortality and virtual consciousness clones. It has more than 10 different endings, and eight ideologies track your decisions.

Build your character

Choose from nine character classes, including the versatile Office Drone, the Investment Banker and the Corporate Spy. You can develop six skills and more than 70 feats, alongside 40 psychological traits, some of which are pathological.

Your mental state is affected by your actions, what you say and the substances you take. Coffee increases your focus, while paranoia and euphoria can alter your brain; emotions also come into play in speech checks against other characters. The game includes eight mental and emotional states and 16 psychoactive substances, half of which are legal in some countries.

Run the company

Expand through friendly acquisitions or hostile takeovers, build facilities and hire or fire thousands of employees. You can trade with, steal from or acquire more than 50 unique companies.

Recruit up to 16 unique characters, level them up and equip each one individually. Send them on business trips across Europe to acquire companies or complete corporate espionage missions. The game also includes more than 120 unique items and item modifications.

Dialogue and characters

Holonoptic contains more than 3,000 dialogue lines, over 1,500 of which are voiced. The recruitable characters can join your company and take part in its business trips and missions.
