Quarantine

aka: Death Throttle: Kakuzetsu Toshi kara no Dasshutsu, Hard Rock Cab
Moby ID: 96

DOS version

Up there for best game of all time, if you can get it to work

The Good
A doom clone with a storyline, how novel (Hey, Quake Developers, get over here, something to look at, a FPS with a plot, how REVOLUTIONARY)

DOOM on WHEELS

Evil-Crazy-Taxi!

The Bad
Its a Bitch to get running.

The Bottom Line
Quarantene is quite simply, DOOM on wheels, or GTA in the First person.

As a Humble cabbie of Kemo City, a once prosporous city, with high crime, that was turned into a escape from NY/LA style prison by the evil omnicorp corporation, its your job to get the hell out of there before the Plauge (which turns you into a homocidical maniac that wants to kill anything that isnt a homocidical maniac) gets you.

Going through a variety of levels, from the Downtown core, to the Cities Graveyard, amoung ferrying passengers, Packages have to be delivered, bad dudes eliminated, guns need to be bought, your taxi repared, etc. The Goal, to get enough cash to bribe the guard at Kemo's only gate, and get the hell out of there.

GET IT, Highly recomended. Great for fans of FPSs, Crazy Taxi, Shadowrun, Fallout, Privateer, and GTA
