Advent
Rising is the first in
an epic trilogy of
action/adventure
games, presented in a
stunning cinematic
format to deliver an
unprecedented variety
of game play
experiences. Built on
the Unreal Warfare
engine, it offers
precise, refined
play-dynamics with
action-packed
adventure and style,
wrapped in a visually
imaginative universe.
Advent is akin to a
fast-paced action
movie where the player
is swept up in a
continuously evolving
series of sequences
and events.
Working
with award-winning
science fiction author
Orson Scott Card,
GlyphX Games has
created a gripping
storyline that will
thrust gamers and
readers alike into an
incredible
intergalactic saga. In
Advent Rising, players
make decisions that
effect not only what
they experience in the
first game, but the
entire Advent trilogy.
In
Advent Rising, a
common legend pervades
the galaxy that of a
powerful, highly
intelligent ancient
race that will one day
deliver the universe.
They are known simply
as Humans.
Some
claim them to be the
messiah, believing
they will one day come
to deliver the
universe into harmony.
Some simply see them
as a symbol for
eternal hope. Others
see them as purely
fantastical creatures
existing only in the
imaginations and
storybooks of the
young.
The
Seekers, however, know
that Humans truly do
exist and see them as
an enemy that must be
destroyed. Under the
guise of benevolent
explorers they comb
the universe and
eradicate any Human
colonies they find.
Until now.
