JesterVision studios has begun development on the horror driven role playing game I Am Legend, based on the short story by Richard Matheson.
You will be the last human being alive on Earth, which has become over-run with vampires. During the day you walk around the abandoned towns looking for weapons and supplies that will keep you alive when it gets dark and the vampires start to stir. At night it’s an intense battle between the living and the non-living.
“I Am Legend is one of my all time favourite stories, and the best vampire story ever written. We’ll be combining the compelling game play of Baldur’s Gate with the thrills of Resident Evil.” said Robert Neville, lead designer of the I Am Legend game.
One of the coolest features of the game is the use of the exclusive “Sun Cycle” technology. The day and night cycle of the game will directly reflect the day and night cycle of the user’s location. So keep track of when the sun sets or the vampires will get you. Don’t think you are safe just because the sun is out, you might go into a dark building where vampires are hiding out, waiting for their next meal.
I am Legend will feature a wide variety of weapons that range from guns you pick up at the gun store, meat cleavers from the butcher, weapons from the hardware store, or just something simple you can pick up in the environment, like a stick.
Are there no other survivors? Are you truly alone in this hellish world? Is there any hope for the future? Find out in, I Am Legend.
