{{GameInfobox |developer = Creoteam |image = collapse.jpg |publisher = Buka Entertainment |platforms = Microsoft Windows |ww_rel = {{Release|2008|September|25|WW|Microsoft Windows}} |genre = Third-person shooter, Hack & slash |perspective = Third-person }} '''''Collapse''''' ({{lang-uk|Kолапс}}; {{lang-ru|Коллапс}}) is an action game released in 2008 for [[Microsoft Windows]]. It was developed by Creoteam, a company based in [[Ukraine]]. The game is notable for combining [[Quick Time Event]]s and [[Swordfighting|sword battles]] similar to [[God of War]] series, [[Third-person shooter|third-person shooting]], and a setting similar to [[S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl]]. The [[soundtrack]] was written by Kiev-based [[Electronic music|electronic]] band NewTone. ==Story== The setting of the story is [[Kiev]], Ukraine, a city that turned into the center of the Zone. The Zone was created after a strange interdimensional rift opened, leading the city and all surrounding areas to be infested with outwordly beasts and dangerous anomalies. The rift become known as the Hole. To stop the spread of the Zone, a [[quarantine]] was declared, and all the inhabitants of the place become it's hostages. At first, the Zone was controlled by scientists and [[militia]], but due to monster attacks and strong aggression from the locals, the Zone soon become divided between various [[bandit]] clans led by so-called Lords. The city itself and surrounding area of the Zone become known as the Junkyard. Rodan, the main hero of the story, is a Lord of one such clan, who is going to participate in a meeting of Lords. The meeting turns out to be a trap by Lord Mark, the leader of a clan of fanatics who worship him as a [[messiah]]. Rodan is forced to fight back with his swords, various weaponry and [[Telekinesis|telekinetic powers]] granted by the Zone's anomal power. He soon finds out that there is much more to worry about than just a new [[clan war]], as he is forced to confront an enigmatic and very powerful man whose ambitions threatens not only to safety of the Zone, but to the whole world outside. During his journey, Rodan also has to uncover mystery of his past and the secret of the interdimensional rift, the Hole, itself. ==Gameplay== [[File:CollapseShot.jpg|left|thumb|Rodan (left) fighting a boss, Yakir]] The gameplay is divided into sections where a player is encouraged to use either swords or guns. The shooting section is similar to many third-person shooters, while the close-range combat is influenced by the God of War series. Boss battles are usually finished using Quick Time Events. Many of the locations in the game are based on real-life Kiev places, such as [[Maidan Nezalezhnosti]] and [[Kiev Pechersk Lavra]]. ===Patch 1.1=== A [[Patch (computing)|patch]] was released, updating game to version 1.1. The patch fixed most of the problems with gameplay balance and bring some new effects to the game. It was highly recommended to download the patch, as it improves the game drastically. ==Collapse: The Rage== A stand-alone expansion entitled '''''Collapse: The Rage''''' ({{lang-ru|Коллапс: Ярость}}) was released in 2010. It continues the story of Rodan after the destruction of the Hole. The features include improved ranged and close combat mechanics, new special effects and the "Rage" mode. ==Reception== The game received mixed reviews. Many critics{{Who|date=October 2009}} praised the unusual setting, [[Hack and slash|hack'n'slash]] mixed with shooting, and soundtrack. However, the game was highly criticised for simplicity of its combat system, repetitive gameplay and poor design of some characters. ==External links== * [http://www.collapse-game.ru/ Official website] {{en icon}}/{{ru icon}} [[Category:Video games developed in Ukraine]] {{tps-videogame-stub}} {{action-adventure-videogame-stub}} [[ru:Collapse]] [[uk:Collapse]]
