Gameplay
Most of the game is spent in 3rd person perspective, with the player viewing the character from behind. In this mode, the character runs around the level trying to find the exit. Usually this entails finding and using various objects, flipping switches, or solving puzzles. Sometimes timing is also necessary to navigate obstacles.
At certain points, frequently after an important task has been completed, the game switches to 1st person action mode. Following a pre set route, the player uses the mouse to target and shoot enemies as they appear, trying to take them out before they have time to hurt the character. Most of the enemies are humans with guns, though some levels also feature various animals that charge the character. If the character takes too much damage and runs out of health, the game ends.
During the action sequences, various power ups appear to help the character if he/she shoots them. They include first-aid kits (increases health), bullets (increase weapon damage or ammo capacity), and bulletproof vests (reduce damage from enemy fire).
