The Fifth Day

The Fifth Day
Sell Phrase: “The Fifth Day was both an end and a beginning.”
Plot: A fleet captain crash lands with a few other fleet ships on a lush planet moments after a failed hyperspace jump. As the captain, you must recover your crew members and find your way to the only functional ship left. However, the way they must leave the planet causes a massive explosion destroying most life.
The Catch: This “lush planet” is the Earth during the Cretaceous period. The average player will not recognize the correlation despite being shown Pangea during the crash sequence. This causes the player to rethink the future… and the past, upon completion of the game.
Genre: First Person Shooter
