"You
have been assigned a mission to locate and destroy a Strogg chemical factory.
The Strogg seem to have found a way to make fuel from slime. If they
manage to use this technology they will have infinite fuel for their war
machine! They must not succeed!
Your
mission:
Locate
the factory, infiltrate and stop it. We have found the hangar the
Strogg use to supply the factory. Get in, follow the supply route
and stop the pumps... Good luck!" ~Wiebo de Wit
Wiebo
De Wit serves up another tasty offering in the form of a meaty two level
pak entitled "Improvise, Adapt, Overcome" (IAO).
Following
the very satisfying "The Strogg Downfall", IAO
offers gritty architecture with fun, intelligent gameplay.
Wiebo
also packs in a certain subtlety that is not found in most other level
creations. IAO is much more than a hack and slash frag fest. If
you are planning to just wade in and blast away while you make your way
running and jumping from room to room, well you got another thing coming.
Strategy and a bit of backtracking are in order here. Don't let this throw
you off either though. IAO is definitely not a game of chess, it
just tosses in a healthy mix of strategy and combat.
Health
and ammo are available in just the right amount. And there are plenty of
interactive and moving objects to keep you interested while you figure
out what to do next. IAO is a fine piece of work. Wiebo comes through
again.

Engrossing
gameplay. Gritty and well built architecture. |
|
Some thinking
required. May turn off the less cerebral. |
|
A fine example
of strategy and gameplay presented in a gritty and pleasing architectural
package. |

This is one impressive hanger.
Grimy gritty filthy pump. Watch out or you're gonna get grease all over
your mouse.
It's a sort of futuristic elevator. Smart design except the call button
is over a gaping shaft! |
