Plot

The player assumes the role of John Anderton, a man on the run after "Pre-Cogs" predict him murdering a man named Leo Crow. The player treks through different parts of Washington DC, from the Pre-Crime HQ to the slums and factory areas, to clear John's name and solve the mystery behind his murder accusation.

Gameplay

Minority Report: Everybody Runs uses ragdoll physics to make the fighting much more realistic. You can also use futuristic weapons both from the movie and by Activision. All weapons in the game are non-lethal due to the world being completely murder-free.

Weapons

Some weapons used in Minority Report: Everybody Runs are made up by Activision and some by the movie. All weapons are Non-Lethal. They are as follows:

  • Concussion Rifle - A small one-handed gun that works almost like a sawed-off shotgun; fires a concentrated blast of air that blows your enemies back so hard that it knocks them out.
  • Riot Shotgun - A miniature, futuristic version of the common Bean-Bag Shotgun that fires small pellets that instantaneously render the subject unconscious. Both the recoil and pump action make this gun very slow.
  • Riot Machinegun - A small, almost Pistol-Like machine-gun that fires bullets that make the subject convulse and eventually lose consciousness.
