Overlooked and underappreciated. MindThunk is currently in the preliminary stage of crafting a sequel and deserves your financial support to bring more of this stellar gameworld to life. For reference; even with only one active dev when I sent in a bug report, he immediately isolated the issue and had a fix ready to roll out in the next day or so. Also, the ingame mirrors reflect you in realtime. 10/10.
While it is possible to commit to an aggressive playstyle in Ctrl Alt Ego, I think it shines best when attempting to clear it stealthily and without harming any of the bots. Doing so recontextualizes many rooms into interesting puzzle boxes that require careful observation and planning to dismantle or pass through. But due to being a systemic Immersive Sim, these aren't one and done puzzle rooms kindred to the likes of Portal, but are rather invitations to forge one of many possible solutions. I feel this greatly aids in the potential longevity and replay value of Ctrl Alt Ego.
The game's also rather amusing, with a dryly humorous script. There's also CATS, a lot of CATS.
