The process of retrieving information will take the player to an underground section of the laboratory where the player needs to first powerup the core, capture the whole base and secure the information. That will trigger the security protocol and endanger the player with robots coming to life just to kill our player. Synopsis You’re a detective trying to figure out why an abandoned laboratory is emitting so much power spikes randomly during the days. To find out you decide to enter the facility and find out what is happening. As you work yourself to find the answer you discover a whole underground laboratory, nature seems to have caught up because the laboratory also have some nature growing. As you’re still trying to discover the cause of the power spikes you accidentally set off the security protocol that was still active, causing a power up of robot guards to search for intruders! Eliminate the robots that has come to life to secure the lab to yourself. USP (Unique Selling Point) The USP of this level is that this contributes to the narrative to the game overall. Risking getting caught just to find answers on why the event is happening sets the story up for the player to continue finding out if there is a solution or a bigger scheme to all this. WOW-Moments A WOW moment is when the player has managed to power up the elevator and makes its way down to then see the underground laboratory. Location This takes place near the city, a place you could call an Industrial park. Environment Its around night time, when no one can see the player sneaking in to the facility.
