The Overtaker 3D comes as a "dark adventure" (of course, all war-related adventures are dark in a way or another) that places players in a Europe devastated by war. You have to fight against the forces of the Third German Reich and stop them from developing a technology that can dreadfully change the course of history. During the game, you have to use your special combat skills, various weapons, intelligent tactics or direct action. If you successfully combine all these, the game's twelve levels will be gloriously finished.
