Red Ocean is a 2007 first-person shooter video game developed by German company Collision Studios.
Plot
Jack Hard hires a fellow diver to explore an old World War II submarine. He soon finds that there is an entrance to an underground complex nearby. An operative contacts him over the radio telling him that his fellow diver is actually a member of the CIA. Jack then soon finds him dead and must take up the fight. The plot takes place in an abandoned, underwater, secret Soviet base that has been taken over by terrorists.
Gameplay
In much the same vein as other games of the genre, Red Ocean could be considered a traditional first-person shooter. The game tries to introduce some innovative elements like water effects including rooms that flood and underwater diving sequences. Ultimately, game play involves the player exploring various sandbox map locations, all while defeating enemies to accomplish tasks related to the single player campaign, which is roughly ten hours long.[2]
