"Hell: A Cyberpunk Thriller" is a graphic adventure game released for the Panasonic 3DO in 1994. The game is set in a dystopian future where the United States is ruled by a tyrannical government known as the "Hand of God," which utilizes advanced technology to monitor and control its citizens. Players step into the roles of Gideon Eshanti and Rachel Braque, two government agents who become fugitives after being framed for a crime they did not commit. As they delve deeper into the corruption and conspiracies of their world, they uncover unsettling truths about the government and their own existences. The game is known for its rich narrative and complex characters, drawing heavily on cyberpunk themes such as surveillance, authoritarianism, and human augmentation.
Developed by Take-Two Interactive, "Hell: A Cyberpunk Thriller" was distinguished by its incorporation of full-motion video (FMV) and 3D-rendered backgrounds, which were technically innovative at the time. The game features voice acting by established actors, including Dennis Hopper and Grace Jones, enhancing its cinematic quality. One of the first games to use FMV extensively, it provided a movie-like experience that was novel for gamers in the mid-90s. Despite receiving mixed reviews for gameplay mechanics, it was praised for its thought-provoking storyline and atmospheric setting, contributing to its cult status among fans of the cyberpunk genre.
