TRON: Catalyst

The TRON franchise has been around for more years than I've been alive and started by telling the story of Kevin Flynn, a videogame developer and computer programmer who is pulled into the world of a mainframe computer.

Developer Bithell Games brings a new adventure set in this iconic universe with TRON: Catalyst. I couldn't wait to try it out and see if it captures the feel of the original movie.

Before jumping into the game, we have a few housekeeping items to take care of. The most important thing is that you will have to select the type of experience that you would like to have: Story Driven is for when you want to experience the narrative and meet the unique characters of the ARQ Grid; Action Orientated is for those who want a bit of a challenge to test their skills with the Identity Disc and are ready to fight; or Challenge Focused, which is for seasoned players who want to test their skills to master the ARQ Grid.

When we begin TRON: Catalyst, you take on the role of Exo, a courier program who has to make deliveries around the city. This day is different from all the others, as she has an odd package to deliver that is glowing with a blinking light. If you've played videogames in the past, you know it's not a good sign when something blinks. Exo has a bad feeling and tosses the package to the side; it explodes on the busy street, causing massive damage.
