Clive Barker's Jericho
About the Game
The Bible tells us that God created Adam as an image of himself - that is not true. It is also not true that Adam was the first thinking being to walk upon the earth. In the beginning was the Firstborn. The Firstborn was a true image of God.
Story & Setting
As the name suggests, Clive Barker , the maker of the Hellraiser movies, had great influence in the making of the whole game including art-direction and background story but Clive Barker's Jericho is not the successor to Clive Barker's Undying .
Gameplay & Core Systems
The game is a pretty straight-forward First Person Shooter but every one of the seven members of the Jericho Squad has different abilities and uses different weapons. She uses a Nodachi as a melee-weapon and a rapid-fire sub-machine gun in addition to Blood magic which allows her to summon either a Blood or a Fire Ward. Although your teammates do a pretty good job on their own, later on you have the ability to take over one of them and do whatever you want to do yourself. The health system is somewhat similar to games like Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas or Call of Duty .
Standout Features
- Devin Ross uses the Patrioteer (a combination of shotgun and assault rifle) and is besides Father Paul Rawlings the only member of the team that can heal wounded teammates, Sgt.
- Hold: The squad is also divided into two teams which you can give the orders "Hold" or "Follow" which comes in handy if you position one team to cover your six and take the rest with you into the fight.
- Ross: If you are hurt badly enough you'll go to the ground but as mentioned Ross and Rawlings can bring you back to life.
Presentation & Atmosphere
Leaving behind a taint so powerful that even God's expulsion couldn't keep it from breaking through into the mortal world to reclaim it's birthright. According to an ancient prophecy the Firstborn will successfully break through into the mortal world seven times. Now once again the ground under the city called Al-Khali trembles as the Firstborn enters the world one last time to either be defeated in a last battle or find eternal freedom.
