Description
Tom Hansen is just another guy in the U.S. Coast Guard when his crew receives a mysterious order to undertake a hazardous rescue mission in the teeth of a winter storm. As the waves surge higher, Tom and his crewmates find the vessel, an abandoned Russian whaling ship.

They board it, but discover that the ship has only been abandoned by human life. Something else is on board, something deadly, and soon Hansen is the only one left who can stop it.

Joining forces with the only other survivor, Hansen must battle the inhuman menace and seek out its very heart for a confrontation that could have consequences for all of humanity.

  • Brave dangerous waters: Rocked by huge breakers, you must steady your nerves and aim to evade a watery grave.
  • Keep your bearings: Battle against increasingly mutated enemies in treacherous, unstable environments.
  • Unleash a torrent of weapons: Create fatal traps and use shotguns, flamethrowers, or any object you can find to survive.

Characters

Tom Hansen
Once a hero, now disgraced, Hansen is happy to fade into the woodwork as just one more guy out there saving lives with the Coast Guard. All that changes when his vessel receives an order to rescue an abandoned whaling ship during a raging storm. What he finds there will reawaken the dying embers of his spirit, if it doesn't kill him first.
Dr. Viktor Kamsky
Brilliant scientistand devoted father, Kamsky leads the research effort on the isolated drilling platform. His discoveries could threaten all humanity - and cost him his own in the bargain.

The daughter of scientist Viktor Kamsky, she has been kept as a hostage to ensure his cooperation. Rebellious and strong-willed, she finds herself forced to make an impossible decision if she wants to survive.
CIA Agent Jason Bennett
Agent Bennett has been watching the situation for a long time. Patiently, like a spider in the center of its web, he's been waiting for his chance to unravel the mystery - no matter how many lives it takes to do so.
