The game is based loosely on the film the running man with the same kind of ideas, there is 20 levels to play and 4 extra levels to unlock as well. The game is played in the third person perspective.

You play as James Earl Cash a death row inmate awaiting execution by lethal injection in the fictional city of Carcer, the game starts with journalist reporting on your execution. After the execution is shown you awake in a room to find that you have only been sedated and a person known only as the Director offers you your freedom if you follow their directions. You get released and have to try and escape the neighbour whilst the action is all recorded by the Director for entertainment. After being betrayed by the Director you have to escape from the police, gangs, mercenaries and a swat team and try to find out who is behind this.

Game Play - A good story with a good plot and decent action that moves along pretty quickly.

Graphics - The graphics are good and the camera angle works well, the game uses the lightings and background well to set a good atmosphere.

Difficulty - The game itself is not really that hard to complete as none of the enemies are really that hard to complete, although you might need to practice a bit for some of the more harder areas.

Summary: easy to play with a good story not for the faint of heart
