Serious Sam Croatian is a video game available for PC and for the system Unix. Developed by Croteam and distributed by 2K Games, has been qualified for over 16 years.
In his first adventure, Serious Sam: The First Encounter the player plays the character Sam "serious" , with 1.83m tall and weighing 116 kg, brave warrior who is entrusted with the mission to save the planet Earth back back in time to change the past and thus save humanity. The entire game takes place in ancient Egyptian civilization.
In a period in which the FPS were becoming more sophisticated and less linear, thanks Half-Life to , where the player is constantly ran into film sequences, it appears this game is a return to the roots of the genre. Closer to Doom that of his contemporaries, the emphasis is again placed in destroying thousands (literally) of enemies per level, leaving aside all the trappings that gender was acquired in recent years. Extremely powerful weapons, a sense of absurd humor and very special, lots of secrets to level and, especially, the ability to play multiplayer mode cooperative, either in split screen, network, or through internet, made this a classic game instantaneous.
should be emphasized cooperative multiplayer mode of this game, because it can involve large numbers of participants at the same time (the amount is limited by the server), the possibility of reaching more than 16 simultaneous players. In the PC was not common to find a FPS game that allows players to play split-screen mode, as is customary in the console.
Due to the success the following year (2002) launched Croteam Serious Sam: The Second Encounter , which continues the adventures of our hero, caught again in the past, but this time trying to kill his enemies in three different historical periods (the only reasonable criticism he received the first game is that all levels were similar enough to spend in Egypt).
In 2005, he launched a true continuation of the original game, simply titled Serious Sam 2 . For the creation of the game, we developed a new graphics engine called "Serious Engine , which harnesses the power of new graphics cards. This game was not so welcome by the press as if he had his predecessor, although most of the followers of the first part of the saga has been expressed for this new release.
In 2009 was released a remake of the first Serious Sam, entitled "HD Serious Sam: The First Encounter" with next-generation graphics and high definition. In this case, the publisher of the game was Digital Return and is currently available for Xbox 360 and PC via CD or Valve's Steam platform.
