Description
A team of S.T.A.R.S (Special Tactics And Rescue Squad) members are called to investigate a series of murders near Raccoon City.
While searching the woods near the city, the team is attacked by something and they have to retreat in a mansion nearby.
A big mistake...
Player chooses between Jill Valentine or Chris Redfield and starts to explore the mansion, and it soon becomes very clear that it isn't just any mansion, but a hellish place where the undead walk the corridors and other horrors are lurking in the darkness, waiting to eat some heads. While solving puzzles, collecting stuff and shooting monsters, the player has to unravel the mystery behind this mansion and -if possible- get out alive.

Trivia
A book adaptation of this game was published in 1998 by Pocket Books, written by S.D. Perry and entitled
The Umbrella Conspiracy, launching a seven-book series of novels by the same author adapting from the Resident Evil games (described under the individual games' trivia sections) and inspired by their themes and premises -- of those latter, notably number 2 in the series, 1998's
Caliban Cove, and #4,
Underworld, published in 1999.
A separate series of novels inspired by Resident Evil has been published in Japan:
- Biohazard: The Beginning (1997), by Hiroyuki Aniga;
- Biohazard: The Beast of the North Sea (Biohazard Hokkai no Yôjû) (1998), by Kyu Asakura;
- Biohazard: to the Liberty (2002), by Suiren Kimura; and
- Biohazard: Rose Blank (2002), by Tadashi Aizawa.
Of course, the series has also inspired two movies starring Milla Jovovich:
Resident Evil: Genesis and
Resident Evil: Apocalypse, with which you are likely to be far more familiar, each of which also boasts novelizations of their own.
