Description

Contract J.A.C.K. is the official prequel to No One Lives Forever 2: A Spy in H.A.R.M.'s Way. The game revolves around John Jack, a contract killer under the H.A.R.M. flag.

Trivia

Here are a few references to the other NOLF games I found:
  • The game begins above the Drunken Scotsman (Magnus Armstrong?) which has a vandalized poster advertising Inge Wagner.
  • During the insertion into Czechoslovakia, Cate Archer is briefly visible near a rabbit.
  • Cate Archer wanted posters pop up from time to time.
  • The game shows off H.A.R.M.'s NOLF2 lair including comments on the "lava".
