A story about violence.
Set against the backdrop of a catastrophic thunderstorm raging over New York, Overclocked mixes frightening fictional thriller elements with real research findings on war simulation and psychology. As a US army psychiatrist, the player is tasked with exploring the memories of several characters as he finds himself in a true psychological thriller.
Using innovative narrative structures, Overclocked charts the diffuse areas where memories and illusions, dreams and reality, perpetrators and victims meet and deals with an issue that is as topical as it is ancient: violence.
Technically, Overclocked takes the engine from The Moment of Silence to the next level with an innovative character animation system, improved facial expressions, more real-time camera movement, cinematic dialogues and lots of interaction – the results are strong visuals and a dense story.
This political psycho-thriller with a survival-horror feel offers 20 hours of tension and plenty of fodder for discussions well beyond. Overclocked will be released in April 2007. It is being developed by the German House of Tales team, makers of adventure hit The Moment of Silence. |
