In this obvious try to capture Tom Raider's success, you play as a female protagonist
named Jennifer who can speak to aquatic animals using telepathy. This talent earned
her a place in the elite Navy S.E.A.L. unit, where she was utilized as a secret agent
by the government until her recent retirement. Of course, when a undersea research
facility codenamed DEEP is beset by mysterious attackers, she is yanked away from
her idyllic lifestyle to investigate. Her task will involve her with a high level
weapons program, a destructive enzyme known as X-118, and of course, a government
coverup. It's your job to go in and neutralize the threat. Deep Raider will take
Jennifer through six missions, which chronicle her exploration of the DEEP complex
and its surroundings. These missions all take place underwater, tasking Jennifer with
the completion of a variety of simple objectives, from repairing a damaged
transmitter to defeating a giant mutated sea creature. Jennifer's telepathy allows
her to communicate with certain animals to gain clues as to the true nature of her
missions. Throughout the levels, she can also be paired with four helpful creatures
that aid her in her travels. Jennifer's four animal companions, the dolphin,
stingray, turtle, and mutant life form, give her different abilities when she rides
them. The game package was highly overpriced at nearly $50. It came with a USB
gamepad that doubles as a thumb-controlled mouse. |
