IF YOU WANT TO IMAGINE THE FUTURE, IMAGINE A BOOT

STAMPING ON A HUMAN FACE FOREVER.

- George Orwell: 1984

Three weeks into the future. One teeming city. Seven street gangs.

Unlimited criminal opportunity.

Society is in rapid decay. With the crime rate soaring and bio-chemical dependency in healthy proliferation, you are about to have the time of your life. The city is on the edge of collapse, with law and order beginning to break down completely. People are running wild, half-addled on food-additives and semi-legal pharmaceutical pills. A giant corporation controls every aspect of society, from entertainment to organ transplants. Everything is polluted, dirty, unpleasant. Life has never been cheaper.

Fuelled with desire to make a dishonest dollar any way you can, there’s a lot of work available from extremely amoral individuals looking for anyone who knows their stuff. With the police just beginning to lose their patience, this city is never going to be quite the same again.

The only thing that's organized in this town is crime. Every shady activity from brewing moonshine to blackmailing politicians is controlled by one gang or another. Every neighborhood has local hoods that don't appreciate some new guy taking whatever he fancies. So you've got to make these gangs respect you, and give you work. If you're any good they'll employ you, and eventually trust you enough to do some serious work. But if you screw up a job or double cross them, they'll treat you accordingly - like pet food. Do whatever you want, and work for anyone who will have you, but always be careful that the city doesn't bite back. You're not the only tough guy in town, and you're not the only guy looking to borrow vehicles without their owner's consent.

In the meantime, the police have not only become more aggressive, they've now got the help of the Special Agents and the Army, should things get way out of control.

Things are going to get way out of control.
