Based on the cyberpunk novel by William Gibson. In a grimy future, you play Case, a cyberspace cowboy who finds himself broke in Chiba City. Find yourself a laptop and the right software for it so you can hack into databases around the city to regain your access to cyberspace. Buy and upgrade brain implant chips to augment your computer skills, and sell your body parts to afford new technologies. When you get to cyberspace, you'll take on the nasty AIs that guard the most important databases. Within all this information is the bizarre secret of this world of inbred corporations.

A great point and click adventure that builds a world which feels lived in thanks to all the little ways you can interact with the world Gibson built in the novel. Logging onto PAX and posting on message boards must have just felt so cool at the time this was released and the internet was still a few years away from infecting everything. It does change the tone of the book to more of a sarcastic humor, but it works for the most part.
