Storyline

To boldly go…

The time is the near future, and US scientists have finally been able to prove the existence of parallel universes. So of course the brash American scientists choose to boldly send a probe where no man has gone before - to the nearest parallel world called Adelpha. The good news is that this world is not so much different from the earth - a similar environment, similar looking life forms, etc. Hey they even have a couple of extra heavenly bodies near their planet! The bad news is that soon after it started transmitting to earth, a humanoid lifeform approached the probe and shot it (duh, what else do you do to a spy camera in your home). This created a black hole of sorts on earth, and everything is being sucked into it!

Those Navy SEALs can do anything

The player takes the role of ex-Navy SEAL Cutter Slade (Jesse "The Governor" Ventura was unavailable) sent on a team mission to find and repair the probe before the black hole on earth sucks everything into oblivion. Unfortunately your team is nowhere to be found when you reach the new world. During your stay in Adelpha, you'll be running through 6 different environments, doing a lot of interaction with the inhabitants - an alien race called the Talan, and solving puzzles in a huge outdoor adventure.
