So, the Nazis experimented with occult technologies to try to gain the<br />

edge in WWII. We know that much from Indiana Jones, but we also know<br />

from history that nothing came of it. The question that Übersoldier, a budget<br />

FPS from tiny Russian developer Burut, asks, is: what if something had?<br />

As it turns out, the game tells us, one Third Reich scientist came back<br />

from a trip to Tibet with the secret to resurrecting the dead. The resurrection<br />

process not only makes the subjects supernaturally strong and powerful,<br />

but also unlocks hidden psychic potential in the human mind. Naturally,<br />

the scientists have it in their heads that they can use this process to create<br />

an army of invincible super-soldiers.<br />

Of course, nothing yet says that these soldiers have to serve the men<br />

who brought them back to life, and Übersoldier’s hero, the resurrected<br />

German officer Karl Stoltz, is not exactly the grateful type. He’ll have to<br />

engage in some hot hot shooter action if he wants to take revenge on the<br />

Nazi masters who turned him into an undead experiment.<br />

A standard but pretty FPS, Übersoldier will offer a little variety here<br />

and there in the form of Stoltz’s psychic abilities: a neat-looking bullet<br />

shield and time manipulation. Though its lack of multiplayer mode may<br />

disappoint the truly hardcore, its single player mode should have more than<br />

enough to offer for the budget price. After all, if Wolfenstein taught us one<br />

thing, it’s that you can never shoot too many undead Nazis.<br />
