Game summary
Sneak & battle your way through a procedurally generated mothership in this stealth action RPG! Supports user content & the Oculus Rift!
4089 takes many of the things you loved from 3079 & 3089, like character customization via stat points, grappling hooks, special powers, building options, futuristic settings, random enemies, weapons, and environments. Then, it presents itself in a much more focused game that gets you into the action easier and faster. 4089 takes more influence from the rogue like genre & has more emphasis on stealthy elements than ever before.
You'll be able to battle & sneak through a procedurally designed ship. Hack cameras & locked doors. Build walls for cover. Break down secret walls to discover new paths. Choose whether you are playing for the full adventure, or just a quick challenge. Edit or create your own rooms, enemies, weapons, textures, models & sounds, then share them with the world!
4089: Ghost Within has 3 game modes, "Normal" mode (skill points are lost at death), "Limited Lives" mode (no skill points are lost, but you only have 4 lives) & "Permadeath" mode (you only have 1 life).
First released: Jan 2015
Play 4089: Ghost Within on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play 4089: Ghost Within on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
