Game Groups > Metro series
Metro is a series of games based on the novel Metro 2033 and its sequels written by the Russian author Dmitry Glukhovsky. The games take place in a post-apocalyptic version of Moscow that has been devastated by a nuclear war, rendering the surface radioactive and forcing the survivors to dwell underground, in the city's subway system. Divided into several factions, among those Neo-Nazis and communists, the humans also encounter a mysterious race of creatures known as the Dark Ones.
Developed by 4A Games, Metro games combine first-person shooting with stealth and survival horror elements. Typically the ammunition is limited and the player is encouraged to stay unnoticed when traversing areas populated by human enemies. Segments that take place on the surface require the protagonist to wear a gas mask and periodically change its filters in order to stay alive. The games are largely linear and contain many scripted events and setpieces.
