Alien Mind
In Alien Mind , players take on the role of biologist and physicist, Timothy
Hunter. Timothy has been called upon by his friend Aaron Avery to visit the
research space station Zekford in order to partake in the study of two
recently discovered, unhatched eggs of unknown origin. Upon arrival, Hunter
soon realizes that all is not well on the space station Zekford.
Zekford has been overrun with hostile aliens–the bodies of the research
scientists lying strewn about the halls. Timothy must blast his way through
the hordes of enemies and solve the puzzles contained in the data left in the
station’s central computer system in order stop the second alien from hatching
and to save his friend.
The game plays mostly as a top-down arcade shooter. The player must stay alive
and interface with the various computer terminals throughout the level. These
terminals provide the player with clues that allow the player to access new
sections of the level. The clues come in the form of riddles that reference
both the objects in the game and the back story contained in the game’s
manual.
