Insecticide is a noir thriller set in an insect world that plays out through a wide variety of offbeat action and adventure levels. In a city overtaken by a sudden crime wave, rookie detective Chrys Liszt is on a crusade to rid the city of lowlifes. However, she immediately discovers that to reach her goal she will have to face the city of Troi’s most powerful criminal entities. Using only high tech pollen-based weapons, innate bug abilities, and hand-to-hand combat skills, Chrys must clean up Troi as well as learn more about her own past, which remains shrouded in mystery. Insecticide fuses elements from different videogame genres to create a seamless, engrossing story-driven gameplay experience. Lighting fast shootouts, a cityscape brimming with life and high production value voice-overs and cut-scenes result in entertainment on par with Hollywood’s best. [Gamecock Media]

Amusing insight to the world noir of insects where murders occur instead of pollination. Insecticide is bit short for its price but if you like humorous games (“Hands up!” “All of them!!”) you will not be disappointed. [Sept 2008]
