Summary
Featuring the ungodly trio of Heretic II, Sin Gold and Hexen II, the MacPlay Shooter Pack is sure to raise a few eyebrows as well as save you a few pennies, due to its bargain price.
Heretic II sets you upon an epic quest across an entire continent to find a means to cleanse a world infected with a deadly magical plague that has victimised the people of the realm. Exploring city, swamp, canyon and dungeon levels, you use a variety of offensive and defensive spells such as the Sphere of Annihilation, Repulsion and Fireball in conjunction with a magical bow and staff to defeat a multitude of insane plague-ridden denizens of Parthoris. Welcome to your new religion.
Sin Gold tells the story of when the CEO of SinTEK Industries begins injecting the streets with a DNA-altering drug, it's time to reassess the laws of morality. When the same twisted bio-chemist plans to overtake the world with her unholy army of genetically engineered mutants, it's time to rewrite the golden rule.
You are Colonel John R Blade, head of the most prominent private protection agency in Freeport. Now Elexis Sinclaire is waging her holy war against the security industry, and you along with it. You've made a religion out of fighting crime. Now you're going to make Elexis pay for her sins.
Making good use of id Software's original Quake engine, Hexen II sets a high standard both visually and technically, and is comparable with any other game in its class. As for gameplay, you assume the role of a destined hero and you must choose from one of four character classes - Paladin, Crusader, Assassin and Necromancer - before beginning your quest. Choose carefully as each class is different and can completely alter the way in which the game is played. You will learn spells, attacks and special abilities unique to each class and you must use them to defeat endless armies of fictitious creatures and bosses.
