The year is 2016. You are a member of a highly-

secretive, homeland security defense unit, known as

PRISM.

P.R.I.S.M. (Pre-emptive Reconnaissance and

Identification Security Mainframe) is a sophisticated

computer system which allows the government to

wirelessly hack into video surveillance equipment

across America. From traffic light control cameras to

home webcams, the system is constantly watching -

taking pictures of anyone-and-everyone, then matching

them with a database, using a highly sophisticated face

recognition system of known terrorists.

The PRISM system will provide you with constant information regarding the threats you will encounter

during the game. You will also need to draw upon your own unique and specially-designed equipment to

help combat terrorist forces.

PRISM Main Game

PRISM is an action game with stealth elements. The PRISM operative can approach each of the single-

player missions using all out, run-and-gun tactics, or employ a more stealthy approach, using a variety of

specially-designed, high-tech equipment to help them.

Blending a mixture of action and stealth, the single-player campaign will take the PRISM operative on a

rollercoaster ride across America, where they will identify and neutralize terrorist cells which threaten

homeland security.

During each mission, the PRISM operative can collect intelligence

points as part of an optional objective.

The Mission Select screen details how much intelligence must be

gathered before the mission is stamped as ‘Intel Complete’

Intelligence comes in many forms, each marked with an ‘I’ symbol.

The amount of intelligence gathered by an operative will be shown at the end of a level, along with a

performance ranking.

FORMS OF INTELLIGENCE

LAPTOPS

Terrorists often use laptops to collate data and communicate through the

Internet via secure channels; it is a vital asset in the fight against global

terrorism.

A laptop’s intelligence needs to be uploaded to PRISM, so requires the

player to be stationary for a time whilst this function is performed.

All forms of intelligence are marked with this HUD symbol

DOCUMENTS

STUNNED TERRORISTS

Every enemy in the game carries intelligence information – however, for this

information to be extracted, the terrorist will need to be interrogated by

PRISM after a mission has been completed. The player will have to restrain

an enemy without using lethal force; ideally with the Stun-gun.

NOTE: Any terrorist fatally harmed will not provide any intelligence!

Documents are scattered throughout levels and contain blueprints or data

outlining potential terrorist attacks.

Simply walk over these documents to add to your intelligence-gathered percentage.

CAMERA JACK OPERATION

Active Camouflage

Once collected this will work to make you virtually invisible for approximately 45

seconds. During this time it is impossible to use the night vision equipment.

Camera-Jack

With a fully-integrated system (available for call-up on the PRISM operatives H.U.D at all times),

the Camera-Jack is an invaluable piece of technology.

With this device, the PRISM operative can hack into security cameras and use them as surveillance

tools, allowing them to monitor rooms and areas remotely before entering and engaging any

enemies.

Technical Points

Effective range of 20 meters with picture-in-picture display

Automatic camera detection sensors

Target selection abilities

“HackSoft” technology that allows security camera snooping

The PRISM operative can toggle the view from the camera to full-screen by pressing ‘#’ at any

time.

Night Vision

A built-in capability of the PRISM operative’s suit, night vision mode can be accessed at any time, but may

only be useful in darker areas of an environment.

Night vision is available for use at all times. Once active, the PRISM operative will be able to look around

with increased vision capability in darker areas.

PRISM in multiplayer mode offers the player a selection of

game play types.

HOST GAME

To set up a game of PRISM in multiplayer, the user must create

a server. To do this, click on “Host Game” and set up your

server details (score, map rotation, etc) on the following screen.

JOIN GAME

Use this option to join a currently hosted game, either online or

on a Local Area Network.

CO-OPERATIVE

Up to 8 PRISM players take on the computer-controlled terrorists in a single customizable mission. Enemies are

deployed at random vantage points, so you’ll never know where they’ll attack from. Use the utmost in caution and co-

operation to complete your mission objectives, which can be configured to include bombs, hostages and terrorists.

DEATH MATCH

Up to 32 PRISM players compete in a head-to-head game where there are no rules; the winning player is the

operative who reaches the Server’s score limit. Kill or be killed in this frantic, action based game.

TEAM DEATH MATCH

You’ll need to co-operate with your team-mates to take down the enemy team. The team who reaches the servers

score-limit first is declared the winner in this strategic combat mode.
