Although in retrospect it could have worked well, there is no relevance between the game's title and the gameplay on offer - for instance, there isn't a 'point' in the game where you're anger 'boils' creating some sort of power-up ability or anything, it's just a catchy name. Available modes of transportation range for taxicabs to military helicopters, offering enterprising players a variety of ways to get around the jungle.īasically, Boiling Point is a game about rescue and revenge. Players morally disciplined to simply steal whatever they need can earn cash by performing side-quests for NPCs.
Grand Theft Auto III-style elements are also in play, as the hero can roam the levels as he sees fit, and hire (or commandeer) vehicles he finds for transportation assault runs. Small towns, hidden mercenary bases, and isolated shops and homes can be found in Realia's wilderness, providing role-playing opportunities. Covering a virtual area of over 25-square kilometers, the game world is streamed, to allow players to traverse it with no load times. Players take the role of legionnaire named Saul Meyers, who now fights as a one-man army to protect his threatened family and his own life. Continuing guerilla warfare in the region makes it extremely dangerous, as do common attacks by wild animals.
Boiling Point is a first-person shooter set in the expansive jungle wilderness of a fictional South American country called Realia.
