Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project

Description

Duke Nukem returns in a new adventure in a third-person platform game which harkens back to the days of the original Duke Nukem platformer games but this time with a 3D game engine. The story takes place in New York City, Duke battles his way across towering skyscraper rooftops and through gritty subway stations on the hunt for power-hungry villain, Mech Morphix. Mutants of every kind are thrown at Duke as he chases down Morphix through eight huge environments and avoids the green slime called GLOPP that is causing all the chaos.

There are over 25 different enemies Duke has to face such as Uzi-sporting alligators, ten-foot tall roach beasts, Fem-mechs (Female mutant robots with deadly whips) and the classic Pig Cop -all while spouting off his sarcastic one-liners and saving babes. There are 9 weapons to choose from such as the Golden Desert Eagle Pistol, pipe bombs, a machine gun, a rocket launcher and a pulse cannon just to name a few.

Trivia

There's a lot of movie and game references in this game. I'll list some of them, but surely there are more:

In the first stage, there's an outdoor to the "Rats" play, a reference to Broadway's "Cats".

In the second stage, if you pick up a public phone you'll hear a woman's voice saying something like "I know you're searching something Duke, and I know how you feel. Follow the White Rabbit", a reference to "The Matrix" movie.

Latter in the second stage, Duke must avoid some cars crossing a street. As he does it a couple of times, he says "what am I, a frog?", a reference to Frogger, the game.
