After catching a breathtaking view of what's below, you're sent into the secret underwater city of Rapture. Who in their right mind would put a lighthouse this far out? You swim closer and discover a small submersible called a bathysphere waiting to take you underwater. But there's a lighthouse on a tiny island just at the edge of your view. One mysterious plane crash later, you're floating in the water, apparently the lone survivor, surrounded by the flaming wreckage of the aircraft. The year is 1960, and you're flying over the Atlantic Ocean. Rapture is an amazing city that sits at the bottom of the ocean, but something's gone horribly wrong down there.īioShock opens with a bang, but the overall plot focuses more on making an emotional impact than an explosive one.
All of it blends together to form a rich, interesting world that sucks you in right away and won't let go until you've figured out what, exactly, is going on in the undersea city of Rapture. Sure, the action is fine, but its primary focus is its story, a sci-fi mystery that manages to feel retro and futuristic at the same time, and its characters, who convey most of the story via radio transmissions and audio logs that you're constantly stumbling upon as you wander around. While on the surface it might look like little more than a very pretty first-person shooter, BioShock is much, much more than that.
