Use destructive weapons and innate mental powers to take on
the most feared enemy in the galaxy - Mankind! Play as Crypto,
an alien warrior sent to Earth to clear the way for the Furon
invasion force. Your
mission is to infiltrate humanity, control them, harvest their
brain stems and ultimately destroy them. You choose the method
- infiltration or disintegration! Arm yourself with a variety
of alien weaponry on land or in the air. Use the Ion Detonator,
the Zap-O-Matic, the Sonic Boom, or even the Quantum Deconstructor
to eradicate feeble humans. Take to the skies in your UFO,
abduct animals, cars, and humans for research, or cause large-scale
destruction...
Destroy
All Humans!
Puts a new spin on an old genre. Instead of kicking green
(or grey in this case) alien butt, how about being an alien
and destroying human kind? Now that's something that's worth
spending some time contemplating. Humans, the most arrogant
self-obsessed race on the planet earth, finally meet their
match.
As
Crypto you can run around shooting anything that moves on
foot, or jump into your flying saucer and blast buildings,
vehicles and the army's weapons. Or why not pick up the odd
human with your abductee ray? Your main goal is to collect
as many human brains as possible, probe the odd rectum and
disintegrate as many of the stupid race, known as earthlings,
as possible.
While
on the ground you can use your mind powers to make humans
(as well as chickens and cows if you so wish) dance to distract
other humans from you, so that you can sneak past with them
without alerting the military. Or you can take the form of
any humans you meet in order to walk amongst them without
causing suspicion. And
if you should be spotted, then get out one of your different
weapons and let the earthlings have it.
The
weapons provide a variety of entertaining ways to dispatch
your enemies. From the painful looking anal probe, to the
destructive bombs that you can throw into a crowd (or more
effectively at vehicles), run for cover, and then detonate
from a safe distance.
There
are problems with the game which I found a little irritating.
Firstly, if you fail in a mission you have to return to your
mothership and then return to earth. Then you have to watch
as your flying saucer lands and you beam down to the ground.
This takes quite a while, and while it's cool the first time,
after a while it starts to become annoying. Why couldn't the
developers just allow you to start from the beginning of that
level without all the cut sequences?
Also,
the levels are a little too repetitive. A little more variety
would have greatly increased the playability of what is one
of the most original games I've played in ages.
If
you're looking for something different, you might like to
give this a try.
