After the tv series based on Shatner's novels, Tekwar comes
to the PC using the Build engine. Shatner himself, playing top rent-a-cop Walter Bascom, guides
you into the game. You are a reanimated cryogenic prisoner, a former police
officer framed and imprisoned for dealing the ultra-powerful Tek drug.
Bascom has gotten you out of the freezer and assigned you to hunt down the
seven TekLords who are plotting to unleash their product into the cybernetic
matrix, hooking millions of unsuspecting computer users. In the game you
will mostly find yourself in well populated
cities, filled with civilians, police officers and of course the Teklords.
There are many vehicles (although you can only use the subway). The graphics
are quite adequate in sharp contrast with the AI of civilians and opponents
alike. The game never really draws you in the Tek-world because there's
not enough story and the mission is always the same: find Teklord - kill
Teklord. |
