Tales of the Neon Sea is an upcoming cyberpunk-themed adventure game that's heading for iOS

Tales of the Neon Sea is a cyberpunk-themed adventure game that's heading for iOS devices on October 28th. The game has previously released on Steam where it's received positive reviews from players since launch.

Sporting a pixel art aesthetic, Tales of the Neon Sea is set in a cyberpunk world where tensions and mistrust between humans and robots are escalating, as they always seem to do. Players will take on the role of Rex, a former cop who now plies his trade as a detective. He's tasked with investigating a murder that also suggests a robot rebellion may be on the horizon.

It promises a gripping tale as players investigate murder scenes and examine evidence to try and determine the events that lead to the murder whilst getting a deeper look at the past of Rex himself. As is traditional in these types of adventure game, players can also expect to solve an array of puzzles alongside chatting with numerous NPCs.
