Alien Trilogy

Story

In the role of Lieutenant Ellen Ripley, the player experiences a story loosely based on the first three films in the Alien series. Aside from occasional CGI cutscenes, the plot is told through text-based mission briefings that guide the player through an extended, action-oriented story based on the settings and characters of the trilogy at the time, rather than the specific plots of the films themselves. The game starts out essentially like Aliens: Ripley - here a Marine herself - travels to LV426 to re-establish contact with the colony there. The other Marines are wiped out, so Ripley must travel through the contaminated colony, the prison, and finally the crashed alien ship itself to destroy the aliens and escape.
