The game features the exploits of pilot Jake "Lucky" Masters as he tries to
rescue nurse Kate Lomax from a ruthless warlord. The story and characters are
similar to Indiana Jones. In 1930s Hong Kong, struggling former World War I fighter
pilot Jake "Lucky" Masters is recruited by rich businessman E.A. Lomax for a
dangerous mission. Lomax's daughter Nurse Kate Lomax, has been kidnapped by ruthless
warlord Li Deng and imprisoned in Deng's Chengdu fortress. Lucky must rescue nurse
Kate but to do so, he must enlist the help of a mysterious ninja named Zhao Chi.
Each day Lucky has not rescued Kate, his reward money decreases by $20,000. After
sneaking into Deng's fortress, Lucky and Chi snatch Kate and escape. Unfortunately,
Kate is bitten by a snake during the rescue and the only medicine that can save her
is in Tibet. After further adventures in Tibet and Istanbul, the trio makes its way
to Paris. There are several possible endings to the game and many ways to die. Some
interesting features are that certain choices can delay the team (diminishing the
reward given in the epilogue), and that portions of the game are played from Jake's,
Chi's, and Kate's perspectives. There are two optional arcade-style action sequences. |
