All about game Pariah
Pariah is a first-person shooter video game developed by Brainbox Games, HIP Games, and Digital Extremes that was released on May 3, 2005 for the Microsoft Windows and Xbox platforms. The game utilizes an updated version of the Unreal engine along with Havok physics engine to provide players with a realistic experience.
Players take on the role of Dr. Jack Mason as he attempts to escape from an isolated research facility after it has been overrun by forces intent on destroying him and all evidence of his work. As Mason fights through hordes of enemies, he will also explore various environments such as underground caves or abandoned cities in order to make his way out alive.
The weapons found throughout Pariah's campaign are varied in their capabilities and range from traditional firearms like pistols or rifles to more exotic ones like energy cannons or flamethrowers that can be used against enemy troops or environmental objects alike. In addition, several vehicles including tanks can be utilized during battle making them invaluable assets for taking out more powerful foes while providing cover for allies when necessary. Unfortunately despite its strong visuals and enjoyable atmosphere, Pariah received mixed reviews upon release due to some issues with level design and control mechanics among other things which ultimately kept it from achieving commercial success though many still regard it fondly today as one of the best games ever made using Unreal technology at the time of its release.[1]
