Overall, Synergia has almost everything you can ask for from a visual novel. The visuals are on-point and it shows off the neon-lit dystopian cityscape futuristic cyberpunk aesthetic perfectly. The art style is beautiful and charming. The game’s soundtrack is also great, even though it could use a bit more variety. The story has a slow build-up but it’s interesting enough to keep you captivated. Having to get a choice in how the story ends makes it even better!

Critic reviews
- Synergia has a slow start, a scintillating middle, and some odd ends, but as an entire package it’s a solid yuri cyberpunk visual novel that has some forgivable offenses. With incredible aesthetics and real, raw characters, Synergia paints a dark and moody picture and, for the most part, delivers on its promises.
- 8.1I also found that the UI could at times be a bit tricky when it came to discerning which character was actually speaking, especially when first learning the character names. Despite its flaws, Synergia is a good visual novel for those looking for a short diversion. I would especially recommend it to those who enjoy cyberpunk and romance stories. I ultimately enjoyed my time with the title, and that’s all you can really ask from a game.
- 5.0A strong indication of whether I’ve liked a visual novel is whether I am eager to actually see what happened on those different branches. But I had none of that urge with Synergia: A Cyberpunk Thriller Visual Novel. The prospect of doubling my time with this humdrum, navel-gazing cyberpunk visual novel filled me with a slight sense of dread. I wanted to make my excuses, drop down an origami unicorn, and pop out to watch Blade Runner instead.
- 7.5Overall I came away hugely impressed with Synergia. It offers a lot of unique thoughts on its vision of the future and is backed up by some stellar audiovisual design, meaning it's a joy to experience.
- 7.0What Synergia lacks in play, confining its players to a single advance-dialogue action, it makes up for in engrossing characters and story. Its cyberpunk world, lore, mysteries and soundtrack will draw you in, even if the central android/human love story is problematic and its ending very abrupt.
