The plot of

The War of the Worlds: Siberia presents an alternative version of 1896, in which the Earth was invaded by Martians. The production takes us to Czarist Russia, more precisely - to St. Petersburg, where the aggressors entered in early autumn.

During the gameplay, we play the role of a young student separated from his relatives. Facing danger from both aliens and hostile humans, the protagonist must leave the city and travel to the eastern end of the Russian Empire.

Gameplay

In The War of the Worlds: Siberia the action is viewed from a third-person perspective (TPP). As we traverse the locations and complete the tasks set before us, we gradually push the story forward and meet various characters; while some turn out to be allies, others - quite the opposite.

In addition, we often come to solve environmental puzzles, sneak, melee or, finally, reach for weapons. Although we can deal with hostile humans, acting quietly is essential to avoid encounters with alien invaders, whose triggers (giant robots on three long legs) patrol locations and kidnap anyone who comes within reach of their tentacles.

As for the weapons put at our disposal - we are talking about sabers, black-pistols, Maxim machine guns and even explosives, among others.
