She finds Zack's "loose cannon" approach irksome at times, but tolerates his behaviour because of his friendship and loyalty. She likes to play things by the rules even though she now no longer works in the military. Tough and disciplined, Ari ( Tia Carrere) used to be a military pilot and commanded the TAS Interceptor Talon in the first interstellar war. Zack and Ari decide to roam the Galaxy hunting for "juicy derelict ships" to plunder, but they soon get into trouble and need Casey's help to escape their predicament. For most of the game you see through the eyes of a remote probe controlled by Casey (the player) from the ship. You play the role of their comrade Casey, who suffers a serious accident but is brought back as a cyborg with limited capabilities. The game ends if any of the main characters die, but you can restart the current scene to continue.Īri and Zack are ex-military personnel turned scavengers. You are occasionally tasked with saving the lives of your companions, but it is usually far more entertaining to watch them die. A great deal of the puzzles involve either opening doors or activating consoles. The video cut scenes are linked together with various puzzles and limited exploration areas. The live action scenes were directed by Scott Ewers and filmed in San Francisco at Cinerent Stage A.
The fact that it stars Tia Carrere was used as a selling point, as demonstrated by the front cover of the box.
It's the sort of game that quickly becomes frustrating, especially when scenes have to be started all over again if a mistake is made by the player. It was released in 1995 and garnered moderate reviews. The video sequences are added into pre-rendered 3D backgrounds. The Daedalus Encounter is a four CD, full motion video game developed for the 3DO console, PC and Mac.
