The Signal From Tölva is a thinking man’s shooter, letting players piece together an interesting story as they fight their way through a sci-fi playground controlled by autonomous AI factions. It doesn’t always succeed at what it sets out to do, but at its peak, it’s an excellent mix of the best bits of the Far Cry and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series.
