Broken Helix is a 1997 third-person action-adventure game for the PlayStation, notable for starring Bruce Campbell as explosives expert Jake Burton. Set in a restricted military research facility, the game features a real-time narrative with multiple intersecting storylines where your choices and speed determine which of the four unique endings you experience.
How to play
Your main objective is to navigate the chaotic facility to disarm explosives, complete varied mission objectives, and uncover the truth behind the incident. The standard PlayStation controls are mapped to your keyboard: use the arrow keys to move, Z and X for the primary action buttons (Cross/Square), Enter for Start, and Shift for Select.
Tips
- Time moves continuously in the game world. Prioritize your active objectives, as lingering in one area can cause you to miss key events or fail time-sensitive missions.
- Pay attention to the radio calls from your commander and scientists. They offer crucial context and alternate solutions that can change the direction of the story.
