NAME: The Chaos Engine series (2 titles) AUTHOR/VENDOR: Bitmap Brothers/Renegade RELEASED: various TYPE: Shooter LANGUAGE: English PREMISE: One or two player can choose from an assortment of mercenaries to do battle with a wide variety of mutants in an apocalyptic setting. Collect money along the way to buy new and improved gear. IMPRESSIONS: The original did for sci-fi shooters what Gauntlet did for fantasy action games. The second is a letdown on all fronts save for the two-player split-screen mode, which allows better freedom of movement. VARIATIONS: The Chaos Engine (1993, states the original premise and lets you choose from six mercenaries) The Chaos Engine 2 (1994, only four mercenaries left to choose from, and more reminescent of a dungeon crawler than a shooter - this was never released, although copies of a partially working beta do exist)
