The Brookhaven Experiment

Mechanics

The Brookhaven Experiment is a first person shooter with survival elements. The game requires virtual reality goggles to work, and the player has the ability to freely look around by moving their head. The title also uses motion controllers, thanks to which we not only interact with the environment but also shoot with firearms and use objects and tools found along the way. The game focuses on the elimination of hordes of opponents including both humanoid creatures, as well as hypertrophic insects or huge masks acting as bosses.

The aforementioned survival aspect also plays an important role. Players must control not only their ammunition supplies but also batteries for the flashlight. In addition, all the tools used on the battlefield can be improved, thus increasing their impact power. Eliminating the waves of opponents, we gain special rewards, thanks to which we can increase the number of health points of the hero or ammunition stored.

Game modes

The game's main focus is on the single-player campaign, in which the hero gets a chance to unravel the mystery behind the titular experiment and close the portal that allows the monsters to appear on the Earth. The game also has a Survival Mode, where we face waves of enemies.

Technical aspects

The Brookhaven Experiment on PS4 and PC requires virtual reality goggles to work. The title is based on Unreal Engine 4 technology, which provides a high level of visuals. This applies to enemy models as well as to environmental elements and a complex lighting system. Soundtrack composed for the game adapts to the events that take place on the screen, repeatedly enriching the gameplay with so-called "jump scares".
