About the Game
Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero is a story-driven fighting game that casts you in the shoes of Sub-Zero, and chronicles a series of events that occurred prior to the first Mortal Kombat game. In a storyline that is reminiscent of Looking Glass 's Thief , the Lin Kuei assassin/thief is sent to steal an important document.
Gameplay & Core Systems
At its core, the gameplay-wise, the game takes the Mortal Kombat familiar 2D fighting environment and turns it into a hybrid fighter/platformer game, where you must travel through hazardous levels running and jumping around as well as fighting your way against both digitized and polygonal enemies. Sub-Zero 's interface is the same as in every Mortal Kombat game, with some additions such as "use" and "turn around" buttons, an inventory system, and a slight RPG twist in which you get experience from defeating opponents that grants you access to new techniques and moves to execute as you progress in the game.
