Uncharted rip-off FPS looks intriguing

It’s hard to not love Uncharted. The series has sparked other developers to kick it into gear if they want to compete with Naughty Dog’s cinematic action/adventure franchise.

Polish studio The farm51 definitely love Uncharted, even if they don’t want to admit it. Their new game, “Adventurer”, features a good-looking male treasure-hunter and elderly moustachioed sidekick as they travel into a jungle in search of a lost artifact. Hmmmm… sounds familiar.

Innuendos aside, it’s a lot like Uncharted – but that doesn’t matter, because it looks good, as the Adventurer takes the form of a first-person shooter with puzzle elements and exploration, mixing it up with some supernatural elements along the way.

“Adventure shooter in first-person perspective allows players to feel like treasure hunters and adventurers. The combination of dynamic gunfights, engaging storyline, ingenious traps and mechanisms ensure an unforgettable experience of a native of Indiana Jones movies,” reads the game description on the official site.

Multiplayer will also play a role in Adventurer, and although details are scarce, the game will release for Xbox 360 and PC next year, unless Sony steps in and cries “copy-cat”.
