Description
November 2008. NATO intelligence services report that, for unknown reasons, the Russian military has destroyed Gorky 17, one of the old Soviet Secret Cities. A year later NATO takes over a former Russian secret base built on Polish soil. Diggers discover a laboratory complex in the completely demolished town. After examining the wreckage, NATO decides to leave the lab as it is. But shortly afterwards the town's previously deserted streets are suddenly teeming with hordes of grotesquely deformed creatures. Word soon gets out to the media, making it impossible for NATO to simply destroy the site. So troops are ordered to hermetically seal the area. Nobody is allowed in or out. Will they discover the terrible secret of Gorky 17? And more important - will they live to tell about it?

Be prepared for intrigue, betrayal and even some romance. You will need clever fighting tactics and some brainpower for solving puzzles. Moreover you can search offices, shoot locks and communicate with other characters.

Gorky 17, a different game, but good

It is heavily flawed, has loads of glitches, even when the original game was released it was bugged, and i never saw any patches for them. Xp only ,and the graphics hardware mode is okay only with a few graphic boards. When i got myself a brand new PC, it also meant the graphics board was new. And the problems arose: lots of games like gorky needed to be run in software mode, which is painful for the eyes, cause the hardware mode was best. The videos crashed the game , thats true... but all in all the game has very good atmosphere. I have loads of old games on retail cd, to bad lots of the wont work on my win7 64 bit, luckily i still have my old xp :D

Needs work

On a slow computer the sound will repeat and stutter, this can get very annoying. Only being able to shoot in 8 directions (+ and x) is silly, as you can move in the standard circle pattern that most tactical games let you move.

Flawed, but amusing

Hasn't aged well and has quite a few design flaws - not to mention a nonsensical story - but can be fun for a while if you're in the mood for 90s tactics RPG.
