Thunderbolt Hawks / Alsuqur Alsaaeiqa [Ar] Unknown 2006

This is an Iraqi developed 3D FPS game made using Unreal Engine 2 and with cel-shaded graphics. Your protagonist is a peaceful office worker whose only daughter was taken away by a terrorist attack. That day, after work, he sat at home with his elderly father and watched the news. The city was again restless: on TV they reported about another explosion. The father said: you need to quickly go and take your daughter home from school. When the father and the girl were walking down the street, a car suddenly exploded nearby. My father's grief knew no bounds when he saw his murdered daughter on the pavement. In such a situation, for a man in the East, there was only one way out - to take revenge on the killers. In the city, he came across an advertisement for a special anti-terrorism squad - “Thunderbolt Hawks” (Arabic الصقور الصاعقة). Now it was only necessary to find their headquarters. The game, let's be honest, is quite short, but this in no way makes it uninteresting. In total, three locations await you here: 1 - find the headquarters of the squad for the recruitment of fighters in the city quarter and get to know some of its members; 2 - educational and training base (with a guaranteed high-quality training course); 3 - the real combat work of the special forces: you need to clean up the office building from terrorists and free a high-ranking hostage. In the beginning, you will need to walk around the block in search of headquarters. I must say, the atmosphere of the Middle Eastern city here is created just fine: graphics, objects, people, sound background. If something can be opened, a "hand" pointer will appear. It is possible to enter into dialogues with passers-by or just from the outside to listen to the leisurely conversations of people. So you will reach a metal gate with a small symbol of lightning - that's what you need. Here they will meet you, let you inside and begin to bring you up to date, but suddenly ... Shots are heard in the street. All fighters immediately take their positions at the windows. You also find yourself at the window with an AK-47 - now you can fire on a group of terrorists that suddenly attacked. After the battle and the successful destruction of all enemies, you will even have a little chat and, in the style of a comic book, tell your sad story that brought you here. But if you were allowed to shoot, this does not mean that you have already been accepted into the detachment. This is special forces, a rookie, special training is needed here. So, you are at the training base. First you will need to go through a simple obstacle course for a while. Character control skills are practiced: jumping, climbing a rope ladder, descending a rope ladder, crouching. The second lesson is the firing line. Here your accuracy will be tested. And do not forget to change the store at your Kalashnikov - yes, hello to you, Hollywood, from sunny Iraq: everything here is real and detailed, even the final operation in reloading is shown - jerking the shutter with sending a cartridge into the chamber! The third lesson - everything is very serious - training in the building. Suddenly, two types of targets appear in different corners of the rooms: "terrorist" and "hostage". First, as you might guess, “it is possible and necessary…”, but the second one is impossible. With any mistake in all training sessions, the lesson starts anew, so you will definitely master the control of the protagonist and the basic skills of combat work at an impeccable level. Well, the last location is the only truly combat level in this game. Terrorists entered the office building and took a high-ranking person hostage. The situation is not easy, and you will still act alone. It is necessary to clear the building from the terrorists and free the hostage. The level of damage here, to put it mildly, is far from "fatal from the first hit." Yes, and the enemies somehow slowly “think” (at least a second for sure) before they pull the trigger. Probably, in the settings it will be possible to somehow tighten the game mode. But even at such an easy level, it is difficult to pass this location the first time - they kill constantly. In this mission, you have two weapons: a Beretta pistol and our trusty Kalashnikoff. In one place, you will need to find a key to open the door to the stairs to the upper floors.
