Fans of point and click adventure games, Telltale games, old Sierra games, Snatcher, and cyberpunk in general will love Read Only Memories. Those who dislike reading for extended periods should give it a pass.

And I am pretty sure you do too -- otherwise, you wouldn’t be reading this article on mystery and investigation games -- so let’s get right to my favorite ones so far!"
MidBoss has partnered with IDW Publishing to expand the Read Only Memories universe with an all-new comic book series, set to begin releasing in monthly installments starting December 2019.
From ShackNews: "Read Only Memories is a unique twist on the point-and-click adventure game, taking cues from the cyberpunk aesthetic and style of the classic Hideo Kojima-helmed Snatcher. Since its initial release on PC, it's been ported to most systems, including the PlayStation Vita, but until now it hadn't been given a mobile port. Now, mobile players have a chance to strike out on their own to explore Neo San Francisco while on the go. Read Only Memories: Type-M is an excellent, downsized version of the game that works well as a mobile title. If you've heard a lot about Read Only Memories and want a chance to finally sit down and play it, this is your best shot, since you can take it with you."
