DESCRIPTION

Released through Valve's Steam service in spring 2006, this first chapter in a planned series of episodic releases marks the return of Ritual Entertainment's 1998 story-driven shooter. Fans resume the role of Colonel John R. Blade, who continues his quest to eliminate corporate evil from Freeport City. In addition to traditional first-person shooter gameplay, SiN Episodes: Emergence features light puzzle-solving and on-rails action sequences. This release is designed to provide four to six hours of play, with the adventure continuing in future episodes. The iN Episodes games are built on Valve's "Source" engine, which also powers the hit shooter-adventure Half-Life 2. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
