Every ancient game has a story behind its origins. Scripted from an exciting Sci-Fi perspective, this is a story of how the ancient Snakes&Ladders board game came to be. Millions of years ago the galaxy was devastated by a terrifying war between the Humans and Reptilians. It all began on a dark desolate Earth-like swamp-filled forest world in a distant uncharted corner of the galaxy. A Galactic-TriAlliance Officer faces off with serpent-like Reptilians while searching for an Artefact that could change the fate of the galaxy. Episode 1 delves into this first encounter between the two species, before the galactic war began. It's a small, fun, tense, and entertaining shooter game. It starts with a slow rhythm, and ends with a big bang. Episode 1: The primary story based Action Shooter; Camera Perspective - First Person; Map 1 - A single large forest; Levels - 6; First level is the forest floor; Next 3 levels are each a stage higher up in altitude in the map; Last 2 levels are different in nature; Average Duration - 1 hour. The Hunt: Unlocked mini game after completing Episode 1; Type - Mission based Hunting Strategy; Camera Perspective - First Person; Map 1 - Same single large forest; Levels 1 - The hunting mission; Average Duration - Unpredictable. Episode 1 features: Read/Listen to text/audio logs to learn about the story and your objectives; Collect body-armor to increase health capacity; Use different weapons to destroy your enemies. The weapons are not a choice, they are a necessity; Fight different enemies as you go to each level; Plenty of ammo around; Auto health-regeneration; The indispensable flashlight; A Save station at each level of the game; In-game Auto-save to continue from a key location/time in the game the next time you play, without having to Save at a Save station. The Hunt (Mini Game) features: Try your hunting skills on this unique enemy; Use binocular/motion-tracker mode to track the enemy; Hide in the bushes or on top of small trees; waiting in ambush for, or fleeing away from, the enemy; You have only one weapon at your disposal; There are no health dispensers other than your auto health-regenerator, and it's slow; No in-game Auto-save, only one Save station; Map is the same forest as Episode 1 but you only hunt on the forest floor, not the stages above; Remember, while you are hunting him, he is hunting you; and he can do the same things that you can, plus some more. Only the most basic game-play concepts of the Snakes&Ladders board game were integrated into this game. The forest represents the board. Each higher level in this game is represented by a stage of wooden ramp-ways at a higher altitude in the forest. There are ramps that the player must walk UP to go to the next level. Enemy serpents either force you off the ramp-ways to a lower (DOWN) level or kill you altogether. |
