Our take on Sweep
The freedom emphasized in the listing is bounded by a fixed objective: every job ultimately requires eliminating everyone. The severe restart rule also makes experimentation costly, despite the invitation to approach missions in different ways.
What is Sweep?
Follow Sergey, a desperate man drawn into criminal activity in 90s Russia.
The game presents a dark crime story involving ordinary people and figures connected to the criminal world. Each job requires careful decisions: making a mistake sends the task back to its beginning, while the stated objective is to eliminate everyone. Before a mission, choose an ability or starting item based on the available information, personal judgment, and preferred fighting style. The game allows different approaches to completing jobs. It also supports Nvidia ray tracing on RTX graphics cards, while other systems can run the game without that effect. The soundtrack comes from electronic composer Fly5olo and includes techno, drum and bass, and dubstep influences.
