This is a "story/simulation" game along the lines of space games, except underwater. It tells a story, in this case a science fiction adventure, and simulates the world in which the story takes place so that you can participate, instead of just listening. One of the main characters is a pilot whose "handle" is Jake who will handle the speaking part of the story, but when it comes time for Jake to enter a submersible craft known as a SeaHawk and carry out a mission, then you take over. The story moves forward when you complete a mission, which requires both piloting skills and tactical thinking. The early missions are designed to get you up to speed on your piloting and combat skills. Later missions test your puzzle solving and strategic thinking capabilities, along with turning up the heat on your combat abilities. If you are a newcomer to such games, you will enjoy the experience of seeing your piloting skills improve as you encounter ever tougher opponents. The experienced players will find that it requires as much strategic thinking as it does fast reflexes and that it requires plenty of both. |
