The most impressive graphics feature: John Russell, Anne Taylor and the rest
of the characters are all rendered in real-time 3D, casting correct
real-time shadows on all objects. These light and shadow effects make for
authentic locations, as Russell and his fellow agents secretly explore Nazi
research installations. Volumetric light adds to the intense atmosphere of
the espionage thriller.
Undercover also features a comfortable function to display all hotspots of a
location simply with the press of a button -in case adventurers needs some
help along the way.
The game's plot is a fascinating mixture of fact and fiction: Based on the

a frightening scenario. German scientists, long leading the field in nuclear
research, have made alarming progress on the path to atom bomb. British
intelligence recruits the renowned physicist Dr. John Russell to investigate
the matter. The player controls him, as he carries out his dangerous mission
in Nazi Germany.
