Citizen Sleeper review – an evocative cyberpunk survival sim
If your brain were copied and placed in a robot body, would it have human rights? That's the thorny issue at the heart of Citizen Sleeper, a game set on a run-down space station called Erlin's Eye in the far-flung future. In this reality, AI is strictly controlled and artificial beings that achieve sentience are hunted down and destroyed, Blade Runner-style. But "emulated" humans known as sleepers offer a loophole, being neither fully artificial nor fully human. Nefarious megacorporations will pay desperate volunteers handsomely for the right to emulate their brain.
