- SophistiChaos Game Design proudly presents:
-
- Enhanced
- --------
-
- The first part of the Cyberventure trilogy (soon to be followed by
- Sensorer and Icebreaker).
-
- Enhanced is a science fiction text adventure set in a cyberpunk
- environment, complete with your first opportunity to experience
- cyberspace.
-
- As Enhanced begins, you are trying to survive yet another day in the
- big city with no money, no job and no hope. Walking down the street
- in the government research project area, you suddenly see a sign that
- you haven't seen before.
-
- "Volunteers needed for military research project!
-
- Do you want to make money?
- Do you want to help your country?
- Can you start at once?
-
- No special skills needed.
- Enter here."
-
- Since you think that all of the items on the list fit you perfectly,
- especially the part about needing money, you enter the door indicated
- on the sign and sign up to be a research subject.
-
- You have to fill out and sign a multitude of forms, asking you about
- all sorts of things from what grades you had in school to if you have
- any friends or relatives who know where you are. Once you finish all
- the boring paperwork you are lead through a lot of white-painted
- corridors, all alike. Finally, you emerge in what looks like a
- surgery. You are made to lie down on an operating table where you are
- tied down and covered with green cloth. You see a plastic mouthpiece
- being lowered down over your mouth and you feel yourself floating
- away...
-
- When you come to, you find that some things about you have changed.
- You also find that the people doing the research seem to regard you as
- some kind of prototype, not a human being. Perhaps it would be good
- for your health if you could get out of this mess...
-
-
- Enhanced is shareware ($10) and runs on Macintosh, PC and various
- flavors of Unix. If you register your copy, we will send you a
- diskette with the latest release of Enhanced, a booklet with hints to
- help you complete the game and also the complete TADS 2.1 source to
- the game.
