Suitable for Mature Audiences 16 years and over

The whole world lies in ruins. Humanity is almost annihilated. Due to the high-level of radiation cities became unsuitable for living. Outside cities, as rumours say, there are endless burned out deserts and wilds of mutated forests. The survived still remember about the past greatness of human. But the remnants of the civilization gradually become just memories, spin with stories and turn into legends.

Since the last plane took off the land more than twenty year has passed. The corroded railroads lead to nowhere. The air is silent, and the radiomen hear only the cheerless howls while million times tuning in frequencies on which broadcasted New-York, Paris, Tokyo and Buenos Aires before. Only twenty years has passed since IT happened. But human yielded the supremacy on Earth to new species. The mutated by radiation and other consequences of the happened creatures are more adapted to the changed world.

The human epoch elapsed. But they do not want to believe in that. There are only some tens of thousand of them, and they do not know whether somebody else survived, or they are the last people in this world. They live in Moscow metro the largest anti-nuclear shelter ever constructed by a human and the last shelter of humanity.

Almost all of them were in metro THIS day, and this fact helped them to survive. The hermetic locks protect them from radiation and monstrous creatures on surface, the worn out filters purify water and air. The assembled by skilled craftsmen dynamos produce electricity, in underground farms champignons are cultivated and pigs are raised, but the poorer people do not bother eating rats.

The central control system collapsed long age, and the stations turned into diminutive states, where people are grouped by ideas, religion and water filter or by the basic necessity to defence from enemies.

The VDNH is the extreme northern populated metro station in its line. It is the northern outpost of humanity and civilization. Here live some hundred of strong, friendly people, who treat the station as their sweet home. It was one of the best in metro while it was safe. But now the station is attacked by hordes of mysterious animals, descending from the top and named Darkness by the citizens of VDNH. The citizens, for the moment, succeed in countering the offence, but it becomes more and more difficult If the station is seized, the avalanche may overflow the whole metro.

Artem, a young guy, who lives in VDNH, is given a task to reach the heart of the metro, the legendary Polis, in order to warn all people about the terrible danger and to ask for help. In hands of one man appears the destiny of VDNH, the destiny of the whole metro, and may be, the destiny of the whole humanity

In this world an extremely dynamic game play awaits players. They will have to face different political regimes (democracy with market economy, totalitarian sects, military communism, primitive society with proper culture and beliefs); to fight with dangerous enemies and new intelligent life forms, born by catastrophe and mutations; to explore the enigmatic and at the same time quite known world and its laws (groupings and their interrelations, fractions animosity and trade, anomalies and enemies with extraordinary abilities); to handle various types of weapons, as common, as assembled from variety of well-know to modern people types, which posses some properties of their prototypes; to drive unique peoples machines in the new world : hand cars assembled in armoured personnel carrier manner etc..

  • Location post-apocalyptic Moscow, the life of humanity gleams in metro (subway) tunnels, and the stations turned into small states with different political regimes.
  • Variety of game play styles possibility's to play as a heavy strike fighter, as an inconspicuous killer.
  • A player, who attentively follows the events in the game world, will find out ways to influence the advance of the plot and may reach the non-standard end. Besides the basic plot, there is a variety of non-obligatory tasks.

  • The high-level AI empowered to model the NPC behaviour in close combat similar to real people actions. The enemies may conduct simple and aimed fire, avoid line of fire, hide in covers, ambush and attack suddenly, call for help, and mention a character hidden in shadow.
  • mmo-money. Fire off money or be economic, use tactics.
  • Variety of mini games.

5 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 12/06/2010

This game is simply awe inspiring in both graphically and gaming, based on the post apocalyptic world from the book also called metro 2033 with 10 hours of game play spent struggling to survive in this world will have mutants jumping at them form virtualy everywhere and the constant need to search fiercly just for ammo will have anyone at the edge of there seat, brilliant game recommended.

4 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 05/04/2010

You are one of the few survivors of the human race. Living in the underground tunnels of what used to be the Moscow metro. The surface of the earth is in ruins after a devastating nuclear war that destroyed the greater part of the world. Metro 2033 is a realistic FPS set in a post apocalyptic world. Metro 2033 has nearly no HUD other than ammo amount, this helps give a more realistic feel to the game also forcing players to stay aware of their surroundings. As and interesting twist to the game ammo, which is rather scarce, is used as money as well as for weapons making player have the tough decision of what to use their ammo for. I found Metro 2033 a very realistic game (despite being set in a post apocalyptic world) and enjoyed the challenging game play it offered. It also has some stunning graphics, if your computer can handle them set on full.
