X-Kaliber 2097

This game is really interesting but It is a bit marred by some uneven and sometimes to easy, sometimes unfair difficulty. it does set a really neat mood in a post-apocalyptic big city with your character wielding a sword and slashing your way through. It seems to take lots of inspiration from the cyberpunk school of sci fi that was popular in the 80s, authors like William Gibson and KW Jetter and their dark but fascinating stories of society crumbling into chaos and the survivors that utilize the tech they can find in order to survive it. This setting works very well in a video game. Also of note is the soundtrack, by Psykosonik, an outstanding and very fitting electronic soundtrack that is unlike any I've heard on the SNES system.
