Much like the wonderful Outcast, the gamer is thrust into a strange, even bizarre situation. The world of Omikron is amazingly realized, with a Blade Runner sort of atmosphere. One can traverse and view the city in a complete pcos and nonlinear way. NPC interactions are plentiful; a pcos map can be consulted; and even a taxi hailed. Additionally, you may play (necessarily at times) 40 other potential characters. How Is the Game Set up and Managed? Omikron needs a PII 233 with 32 MB RAM, a 4 MB video card, and 350 MB HD space. On my PIII 450, it pcos ran without a hitch or a crash. The 39-page manual does a fine job of introducing you to the techniques you'll need to navigate through the city of Omikron. Your backpack ("Sneak") holds 18 items, quite necessary for the amount of exploring you'll need to do, with larger lockers also accessible at frequent points in your journey. "Save Rings" need to be found in order to activate a console-type save system, although one not nearly as onerous as, for example, the recent Jekyll & Hyde.
