Mmmm...human experimentation...

	Title Obscure: The Aftermath   Publisher Ignition Entertainment/Playlogic Developer Hydravision Entertainment Release Date March 25th, 2008 Genre Survival Horror Platform Wii, PC, PS2 Rating Mature (blood and gore, drug reference, mild sexual themes, violence)

Obscure: The Aftermath takes place just a few years after the events of the first game. The characters have all gone to college and are trying to move on with their lives. One of the college professors has a brother dying from a strange disease, and in order to cure him, is secretly administering the drug to some of the students.An experiment gone out of control contaminates the students and campus, leading to some disastrous consequences….

Continuing with the same tag-team approach that worked in the first game, your team of two will switch off to carry out tasks and battle monsters. Different characters have different strengths, so figuring out the strengths and weaknesses of each of your team mates is paramount to learning the dark secret surrounding the school. Generally each team consists of a girl and boy (dating and making innuendo comments, naturally), so it’s easy to figure out who should move the heavy box and who should seduce monsters….no duh.

Official Description
