Kronolog presents one answer to the intruguing question: What would the
future be like if Hitler's Nazi had won World War II? You are Dr. Hoffman, American
scientist by day and leader of an underground movement by night who, in a quest to
save your son, are given a chance to alter human history. The intriguing plot and
excellent details are unfortunately buried under annoying interface (you cannot even
use the keyboard for movement) and pixel-hunting puzzles. Warning: This game is
extremely unforgiving: you *can* proceed far into the game only to realize that you
need something you forgot to pick up in the first screen. In the German Red Hell
version of the game, the gameplay is the same, but the story arc has been changed
significantly. The world is there conquered by Soviet Union instead of Nazi Germany.
Instead of Nazism, the game has many references to Soviet culture. Even the main
character is named "Mark Constantine" (a Russian surname) instead of "Mark Hoffman"
(a German surname, from the original version) Other than that, everything is same. |
