You hear only the sounds of your own breathing as you carefully walk along the blood stained floors of a dimly lit factory. The roar of its once busy assembly line now eerily silent. Your finger rests nervously on the trigger of your assault rifle as you strain to see any movement in the dark shadows that surround you.

As you approach a corridor on your left, you signal to the seven members of your squad to close ranks behind you. If there’s Scay’Ger around the corner, you're going to need all the fire power you can get. A virus is mutating the friendly Scay’Ger into savage monsters who think human flesh is a gourmet treat.

You turn the corner...Scay’Ger! Two of them! You blast the one right in front of you. He tries ripping into you with his razor sharp claws. Jumping back, you pump him full of lead, splattering the walls with blood. The solider next to you lights-up his flame thrower and toasts the remaining alien. The putrid smell of its burning corpse quickly fills your nostrils.

Venturing further down the corridor you strategically position your men in front of a closed door. You have two soldiers lay back to cover the squad from behind. As you reach for the door you get a bad feeling in the pit of your stomach, but you must press forward. The Scay’Ger greatly outnumber the humans on this planet and the virus that mutates them is rapidly spreading. Opening the door, you know that time is running out!

The Game

Enter the dark and terrifying world of "Incubation", the latest chapter in the "Battle Isle" saga. On the planet Scayra, the peaceful coexistence between the human colonists and the native Scay’Ger has come to a horrifying end. The shield separating the two races has collapsed allowing a human virus to infect the Scay’Ger mutating them into crazed, bloodthirsty monsters.

Lead a squad of marines in a desperate attempt to contain the man-eating creatures until the civilians can be rescued from the nightmarish Scayra. Battle the monsters in the shadowy buildings of the colony Scay-Hallwa where deadly surprises wait around corners and behind closed doors. Experience nail-biting tension as the free-floating camera automatically switches to a first-person perspective when you open a door or changes to the enemy’s viewpoint as they sneak up behind your soldiers.

Using the "Extreme Assault" 3D graphics engine, the events in the game and actions of the characters are all fully animated giving them lifelike appearances and mannerisms. The simple user interface allows you to enjoy the action on screen, instead of digging through a manual in the middle of a fight.

You must be able to think on your feet and have nerves of steel if you wish to survive the unexpected challenges you’ll encounter in "Incubation". Your reward for success is an incredible combination of gameplay and graphics like you’ve never had the pleasure of experiencing before.
