The briefing

About this game

In Force 7, you lead a specially trained squadron of seven crew members, each with different expertise, into an energy production plant on the planet KARIS. The mission is to rescue survivors and destroy the aliens holding them captive.

Use a flamethrower against the aliens, but take care not to harm survivors. Supplies found throughout the rooms provide additional ammunition, grenades, and health. Prolonged stays can summon an invincible green alien at your exact location, forcing a quick retreat.

Contact with aliens depletes energy. When a crew member runs out of energy, they die and you must select another member. Teleports connected to blueprint readers allow travel between the plant's six floors or to other areas on the same floor.
