Will you penetrate the mystery?
XIII wakes up on a beach one day with a gunshot wound to the head. His amnesia is total: he remembers nothing of his dark past. The only information he has about himself is a number tattooed on his left shoulder: XIII. But his past returns to haunt him. Assassins appear out of nowhere and the authorities are hot on his heels. When he’s captured by Colonel Amos, he learns a little more about himself: he killed the President of the United States!
He can’t recall why he carried out the killing, or who put him up to it. But there’s one man who does know - a man by the name of La Mangouste! La Mangouste has been hired to kill XIII at all costs – but he might well be the key to the secret. Unfortunately, even with the help of his allies, tracking down La Mangouste is no easy matter …
XIII brings you the best of an action game combined with a stunning cartoon-strip universe. The plot is captivating and will take your breath away! Plunge into a world of conspiracies, secrets and lies. In this heady mix of action game and cartoon-strip graphics, you play XIII with Jones at his side; you’ll advance through 7 levels moving through a rich variety of locations to accomplish your quest. From the beach where you wake up to the enemy HQ – via a bank, the FBI offices and a prison – you must face up to your enemies in ruthless combat situations. A pistol, an Uzi, a sawed-off shotgun, an M4 grenade launcher … There’s no shortage of weapons to take out the members of the conspiracy! XIII’s deftness in combat and Jones’s computer know-how will come in very handy in overcoming the many obstacles and traps that lie in your path.
To prove your innocence and reveal the truth, you’ll have to make contacts, hack into computers, find confidential documents, let potentially compromising prisoners free and eliminate the enemy bosses.
It’s all against one, and one against all … Alone, your only imperative is to survive.
