Our take on Just Read The Instructions
The bounce point arrives when enemy numbers fill the scene. Players who need time to examine objectives or move carefully may hit a wall during the sustained attacks, particularly when unusual instructions must be handled in the middle of combat.
What is Just Read The Instructions?
This surreal action shooter takes place inside a simulated reality controlled by a corrupted AI.
Players can enter alone or form a group of up to four to fight large enemy waves with an arsenal of weapons. Scientists outside the simulation issue instructions intended to analyze and disrupt the AI's logic, with tasks ranging from helping a grandmother cross a road to finding treasure above or below water. The game includes procedurally generated worlds to explore, unusual environments, and boss encounters. Its structure combines shooting, objective completion, and attempts to dismantle the AI while the simulation breaks down around the players.
