Late Review“Even though Conglomerate 451 did include plenty of interesting ideas, the only thing that's keeping it from sinking into the depths of mediocrity is the well-done character progression system. The repetitive gameplay and dull visuals make it impossible to reccomend to anyone other than the hardcore dungeon RPG fans.”

Late Review“Conglomerate 451 successfully merges the Dungeon Crawler and Roguelike genres together to create a highly enjoyable cyberpunk experience! For those wanting a taste of what Cyberpunk 2077 will be bringing later this year, it’s likely that Conglomerate 451 will satisfy your itches. Nevertheless, while the game doesn’t do anything particularly wrong, I can’t say it does anything amazing, either.”

Late Review“The combat is decently engaging, but the repetitiveness and lack of interesting elements outside of it means it fails to garner full attention for any extended period of time. Those looking to crawl through neon corridors and vaporise cyborg punks will find some enjoyment from it, but it’s ultimately forgettable.”

Launch Window“While I did enjoy my time with this game, I don't think I will be revisiting it in its current state. If you have a hankering for an old school turn-based strategy game then you'll probably enjoy this. For everyone else though I think you may be a tad overwhelmed and disappointed with what's on offer here.”

Launch Window“As the campaign drags on, the tedium and repetition starts to become increasingly apparent. If you are desperate for a new dungeon crawler, then Conglomerate 451 isn’t exactly a horrible deal.”

Launch Window“Conglomarte 451 has substantial flaws and poor RPG components, the sound is almost to waste and the AI sometimes misses. Nevertheless, the core of the game is the dungeon crawling and turn-based fighting, brought together by the optimization of your party to deal with the different types of clashes proposed by AI. This last factor makes the playful experience satisfying and interesting, so I feel like rewarding the game that, if supported over time and fixed in the sore spots can become a reference point in the genre and purchase recommended for lovers of sci-fi. P.s. half a vote point for the hacking system, praiseworthy, really.”

Launch Window“There's nothing outright bad about Conglomerate 451. If you want a dungeon crawler with this specific motif and you're okay with a less than stellar underlying game that for all intents and purposes gets the job done, this should fit that bill.”

Launch Window“So overall, especially for fans of dungeon crawlers, Conglomerate 451 is worth it. With plenty of missions with different objectives to keep you going and tons of research to make better and better versions of your squads, taking a city back from evil corporations will keep you both entertained and occupied for quite a while.”

Launch Window“While a visually beautiful game that checks all of the grungy, neon-bathed cyberpunk boxes, Conglomerate 451 fails to leave a lasting impression after the first couple of hours. The premise is interesting, the gameplay is fairly average, but something is missing.”

Launch Window“Conglomerate 451 is a roguelike-style RPG with touches of strategy that correctly fulfills most of its sections. It does not shine in any of them nor does it come to invent the wheel and it remains in a comfort zone of the genre with which it will not change our lives but it is a sure bet to have a good time little by little that we like the genre.”

Launch Window“Conglomerate 451 is an interesting hybrid between a dungeon crawler and a roguelike. The small Runeheads team clearly worked with perseverance and didn't fail to satisfy the player.”

Early Review“Conglomerate 451 manages to mix the highest traditions of the dungeon crawler genre with the gameplay mechanics one would expect from any modern video game. There are some flaws here and there, especially concerning the procedural generation of the missions, but they are counterbalanced by the high variety of the enemy types and the deep customization system of the agents.”
