BIOSHOCK INFINITY (2013)




Commercial Heaven flying with fun, products, and shops seems to be a complete lesson about how to decorate public places in a city. People are controlled by Comstock the prophet figure also controls slavery to build the city. Mr Booker Dewitt entered the city Name Columbia baptized to pay off his gambling debts in New York. The mission is to rescue the abducted bastard daughter of prophet Comstock and hand her over in New York.  

The game starts with picking things from bins, shops, restaurants, and roadside benches by Mr Dewitt who might be wondering how happy people are in the flying city. The mission has a photo of a destination called monument island where the daughter Elizabeth is abducted and a key to free her from the Monument Tower. Trouble starts with a fight with police at the Raffle fair after the welcome centre of the city and since then Mr Dewitt keeps fighting against various kinds of characters including police, guards and the army of Comstock. Characters like fire man, patriot, crow man, giant robot the Handyman are stubborn in nature. As like as other two parts of BIOSHOCK, the mad machine guns are in every corner. A very common nature of this game is characters move very fast and randomly, the aim was barely visible to kill them. I would say some fights are designed to use your sixth sense to kill random enemies. Flying boats, flying balloons with machine guns, no end of catastrophe in this game.   

On your side, you have 8 kinds of vigour; you can use two at a time selecting from them also can update their effectiveness. I found the crows trap and electric shock most useful. In your right hand, you get plenty of variety of ammo. The thing is the game is printed in colour sketches, so guns are looking like toys until you start using them seriously. The job in BIOSHOCK is to slow the enemies down with left-hand vigour and then shoot them with right-hand guns. There is a button for melee attack when they come close and also a button to get directions arrow on the screen. Also, a magnetic device is given in this part to fly on skylines. 

As usual, after rescuing Elizabeth, it became difficult for Dewitt to take her out from Columbia to New York even though she wanted to be free. Once Dewitt told her about his mission in the First Lady Ship, Elizabeth simply ran away putting him into another gambling. The boat they need to travel to New York is now in the hands of slave leaders ( Vox & Daisy Fitzroy) who will only give it back if Dewitt can find the gunsmith Chan Ling who can supply guns to free the slaves. Elizabeth was really useful during fights because she was picking up supplies. The game has tear(s) in the screen which Elizabeth can open and bring supplies from other worlds. Finally gunsmith was found, slaves were freed and now Elizabeth had to leave with the Songbird to save Dewitt as the big metallic bird was about to kill him. Now Dewitt picked up a code from the ghost of Elizabeth’s dead mother which finally helped them to capture the big metallic Songbird which used to be the guardian of Elizabeth in the monument tower. Here I must say that the discovery of the ghost mother (Lady Comstock) of Elizabeth in the graveyard started a disturbing episode where dead things started coming alive. Until you can have some good aims in the source ghost it keeps growing in the scene. In three episodes Lady Comstock was killed.  

As like the first two parts, the game doesn’t end at the last scene of unprecedented fighting in the command deck of Comstock’s zeppelin. Finally, the prophet was killed in the deck of his zeppelin then the escape gets stuck and probably will let you finish the whole army of Comstock and Vox before you leave. Here to mention, “Vox Populi” the people freed from slavery become enemies as the game was entering different worlds through tears. Anyway, I have been playing chapter by chapter backward to upgrade everything up to the end to find out how to end the game.
