PC gamers return to the tense, 1980s climax of the title conflict in this action-adventure game from DreamCatcher. In the role of a freelance journalist who has traveled to the Soviet Union to cover a routine story, players soon find themselves political prisoners of the KGB -- stripped of all possessions and left in a jail cell to ponder an uncertain future. Using stealth tactics and a collection of improvised gadgets, the reporter-turned-hero must escape captivity or face a fast trip to Siberia (or worse). Missions play out in re-creations of famous locations such as Lenin's Mausoleum, Chernobyl, and the Ljubljanka prison. Cold War is designed to offer players a non-linear game world that challenges them to devise and execute their own solutions to interrelated puzzles.
