A series of gory attacks in the area surrounding a remote biotech lab brings a rescue squad to investigate. You arrive at the isolated mansion under-powered and on the run. Each lurking horror you survive will bring you closer to the Resident Evil.

Zombies, an old mansion, and limited ammo. What more could you want? Resident Evil plunges you into the world of B-grade zombie flicks and does a first-class job of it. As either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine, two members of the Alpha team, you are sent to investigate the mansion and solve its mystery while trying to survive from zombies and monsters.

From the cheesy dialogue and voice acting to the confusing camera angles, you'll jump and squirm through a series of mind-numbing puzzles and heart-pounding attacks. The trick is: conserve your ammo, and learn to run.

The game is interspersed with movie-style cut scenes. The gist of the story is this: you and your special forces teammates have come to investigate the disappearance of the last team, and you have no idea what you're getting into. You spend the rest of the game trying to find your way out of the mansion in which you're trapped. Arm yourself with anything you can find: knives, pistols, shotguns, flame-throwers - search for hidden rounds to stay alive!

The bottom line: If you like zombie flicks, buy it, play it, love it.

And the best part - try blowing the zombie dogs' heads off with the bazooka.
