Deus Ex The Fall Review (Spoiler Free)
Deus Ex: The Fall is an action role-playing stealth video game developed by N-Fusion Interactive Entertainment and published by Square Enix. It is the fourth in the Deus Ex series and the first to be released for mobile platforms.

The game is set in the year 2027 and features the playable character Ben Saxon, a former British soldier who becomes an augmented mercenary for Belltower Associates, a private military company. The story in the game directly follows that in James Swallow's Deus Ex: Icarus Effect, a tie-in novel to the 2011 game Deus Ex: Human Revolution

The game was developed by N-Fusion Interactive under oversight by Eidos Montréal. The Deus Ex: Human Revolution team at Montréal, which included Jean-François Dugas, the director of both games, developed the original concept and worked in concert with the team at N-Fusion Interactive. The game utilizes the Unity engine.

IGN reviewer Craig Pearson gave the game a 3/10, with criticism focusing on the game's poor adaptation to the PC, particularly the lack of a jump button, inability to remap controls, and issues with the game not properly responding to menu actions and button presses. He concluded, "Beneath the struggle with terrible controls and bugs, there are vents to sneak through, email to hack, and people to confuse. It’s something that could shine on the PC if any sort of care was taken



---Spoilers---

In their safe house in Costa Rica, Ben Saxon and Anna Kelso are hiding from the Illuminati, their henchman Jaron Namir, and his covert black ops unit, the Tyrants. Anna mourns the death of her superior, Matt Ryan, who was killed by the Tyrants. Ben recalls the loss of his squadmate, Sam Duarte, in the Australian civil war, and how Duarte's death lead to Ben's recruitment, and ultimately his falling out, with the Tyrants.
Both Anna and Ben are beginning to suffer the effects of mechanical augmentation rejection because of a global shortage of Neuropozyne, an anti-rejection drug that augmented humans must take to avoid augmentation rejection. Following advice from the mysterious Janus, Saxon travels to Panama City to acquire more. In Panama, he is offered an alternative: Riezene, a cheaper anti-rejection drug still being tested, while at the same time being sold on the streets. Ben eventually acquires Neuropozyne for himself and Anna from local LIMB doctor Camila Cardoso after he investigates the black market for Riezene, discovering that his old employer, Belltower Associates, is supervising illegal and dangerous population testing of Riezene on behalf of its manufacturer, Zaaphire Biotech.
Aided by Alex Vega, a disgruntled Belltower pilot, Ben tries to warn an inspector of the World Health Organisation about Belltower's involvement. However once he reaches the inspector, Ben witnesses his assassination at the hands of a new Tyrant operative, Sam Duarte, who hesitantly spares Saxon and escapes. Shocked, Ben warns Anna not to return to the safe house. Determined to follow the trail, he infiltrates Belltower's base of operations to rendezvous with Alex. They depart Panama, heading for Zaaphire Biotech headquarters in Canberra, Australia.
In the epilogue, Jaron Namir and Sam Duarte apologize to their Illuminati handler, Bob Page, assuring him that Saxon will die. The game closes with a "to be continued" message.
