Description

After a meteor crash causes the separation of California from the rest of the continent, major corporations of the future decide to invest in the decadent state. It's not long before the newly restored California calls for independence. And so is Calia created.

You play as Rick Cage, a good-guy hunter trying to continue the investigation your father left after being murdered. Conspiracies are all around in the rich but decadent state of Calia.

The game begins after Senator McAllister, a close friend of your fathers, is murdered in public. You seek the truth, and revenge, and must work your way up the conspiracies ladder by arresting hackers and drug suppliers in order to get to the major drug lords that corrupt Calia.

The game features some interesting storyline background, and good artistic backgrounds, flirting with Japanese anime.

It plays as cinematic-backdrop shooter, much like Virtua Squad series, for example, but a little more complex. It mixes some puzzle solving, and light elements of resource managing (like gathering credits to get new weapons and equipment), and also allows you to choose the next steps to take, making for a quasi-linear experience.
