Item Description

Syndicate may be the bleakest game ever to land on a Nintendo console, and that grim streak is exactly why it's worth playing. Bullfrog Productions, the studio behind Populous, set it in the year 2096, when megacorporations have replaced governments and keep the population docile with a chip implanted in the neck. You run one of those corporations, and your job is to take over the world one territory at a time.

Each mission drops a squad of up to four cybernetically enhanced agents into an isometric city, where you direct them through assassinations, rescues and the capture of key personnel. The Persuadertron is the game's most notorious tool, brainwashing civilians, police and even rival scientists into following your squad. Between missions you handle the business side: funding research into new weapons and cybernetic upgrades, climbing from basic pistols toward far heavier hardware, and setting tax rates on conquered territories. Push taxes too high and a territory revolts, forcing you to go back in and take it again.

This Super Nintendo version is more than a straight port. Its levels were designed fresh and its graphics redrawn in a more cartoonish style, with controls rebuilt for a gamepad, so even players who knew the computer original have new ground to cover. GamePro called it “a thinking man's shoot-em-up game,” and Total! ranked it 37th on its 1995 list of the top 100 SNES games, praising its moody atmosphere. It's also the version EA later chose to include in its EA Replay compilation for PSP.

The appeal today is how unusual it feels on the system. Between the cyberpunk dread, the moral ugliness of what your agents are asked to do and the real strategy in balancing research against revenue, Syndicate plays like nothing else in a typical SNES library, a dark, cerebral counterpoint to the platformers and RPGs sitting beside it on the shelf.
