Yeah, played this back in the day. Was included as a full version in a Polish gaming mag just weeks after its original release (interestingly the same mag released American McGee's Bad Day L.A. BEFORE the game's official launch - and yes, it was an entirely legal deal that left gamers everywhere confused).

Anyway, I remember being quite thrilled at first, especially since it was presented as being similar to Grand Theft Auto, but something put me off. I remember one issue being unclear instructions but that may have had something to do with the Polish translation. I also remember vehicle handling and the combat being rather lackluster and had no incentive to explore the world. And while the setting was kinda cool I didn't quite care about the story. I don't think anything about the game was really bad, just extremely meh.
I used to have a copy of this... until Gamestop killed the old Impulse service completely a couple of months back.

When I read about it on MobyGames the game's cyberpunk atmosphere looked really cool. But I'm guessing that since it's such an obscure game, it will be unlikely that GOG will get it. :-|

From what I remember it's main issue was just that it was a little sparse. Excellent artwork, good controls, decent gameplay and the story was acceptable.
Well you had the Crazy Gambler missions, some were not easy and meant you had to upgrade your ship so that was lots of missions to get the plans and money and then do the combat, which wasn't easy on some missions but not impossible!

Also reminds me a bit of Robots, that was another game that was quite fun to play!

That's on GG not GOG, want it on GOG! The question is, does the GG version just 'run' without setting compatibility mode to Win Me or below so the videos play at the right speed?
