This is a science fiction game which builds upon events that took place
in James Cameron's epic film The Abyss. During the years that followed events in
that movie, the deep undersea research facility, Deepcore, has been occupied both
by human researchers as well as the alien race introduced in the film, the NTI
(Non-terrestrial intelligence). When surface contact with the station is lost,
your mission is to "Return to the Abyss" to investigate. What you find is a very
badly damaged facility that is, at first glance, totally unoccupied. Your
objectives change drastically when you learn that a lethal, predatory virus from
Jupiter's moon Europa was inadvertently transported to the station, mutating all
life forms (alien and human) into monsters. To stop the virus, save the NTI race
and humanity, you must find the components of the cure and combine them in time.
Your search will eventually take you to the Ark, the huge NTI spaceship, and then
to the Europa moon. Armed with only a stunner gun, you must fight your way through
mazes of corridors, getting past a multitude of murderous mutants, who attack in
zombie-like fashion. The game is played in first person perspective and features
a "CD quality soundtrack", and voices of Bud and Lindsey Brigman, main characters
in the movie. There's over 50 engaging puzzles and 100s of rooms to explore. |
