Dinsun Review
I usually find 'cyberpunk' games to be all neon and no substance, but Hyperforma has a unique rhythm. It’s basically a 3D, high-speed reimagining of Breakout. You're bouncing around these massive geometric shapes, trying to find the path to the center. It requires both quick reflexes and a bit of spatial planning. The visual style is the real winner here—it feels cold, mysterious, and grand in a way few mobile games manage.
It can get repetitive, though. The core loop doesn't change much throughout the story, and some of the boss fights are more frustrating than challenging due to the camera angles. But as a premium experience with no ads and a great soundtrack, it’s a solid pick. It’s a bit pretentious with its story, but the actual 'hacking' gameplay is satisfyingly tactile.
