Themes and Gameplay
Sticking to a similar formula as the original, Citizen Sleeper 2 follows a new Sleeper android protagonist navigating the complexities of space. The sequel retains the familiar dice mechanics while exploring the central theme of "crisis," inspired by real-world events like the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine, according to creator Gareth Damian Martin.
