The Idea

This is the main plot basis (not revealing what happens IN the game demo though).


Date 2068
Elita (our female lead), once a military nurse who fell far behind enemy lines, now a spy for MI9 (Once a covert group set up during WW2 covering military intelligence, disbanded in 1945; now reformed) protecting European interests and lives. War has raged between the three superpowers of the world; China, Russian and the USA – the battleground being Europe. (For a century the three largest superpowers were fighting a cold war. First was the space race, second the net race and finally a fight for the European continent.) 
Elita was promised an extraction to safety, to her family, in reward for her services. Her motivation starts clear; to help others and fight for freedom. But who is she working for and what will they make her do or become.

Demo Plot
Elita is tasked with finding military codes within a highly guarded base currently occupied by the Chinese, set into a mountain in the Alps. She's working for MI9 to serve her continent, but also waiting on them to get her to safety Рsomething they haven't been doing, as she is quite useful for them. After a communiqu̩ with the commander of MI9, she enters the base.
On entering Elita, masked and kitted out for stealth (though unarmed) must traverse through the maze of tunnels, sneak past guards, find key cards and operate the correct terminal to steal the data.

How the game will work:
A lot will go wrong, and rather than dying/game over Elita will be transported back to the beginning, ready to start sneaking and finding items again. This is so that the game will not be considered 'too hard', as some of the puzzles are quite tricky. There will be quite a few set-piece animations and cut scenes, to build the atmosphere and reality of what could happen..
