Blade Runner is a point and click adventure game, developed by Westwood Studios for the PC. Rather than re-tell the 1982 Blade Runner film, the developers created a different story set in the same universe, serving as a side story. The game was published by Virgin Interactive Entertainment and released in 1997. The player assumes the role of "Blade Runner" Ray McCoy, who must hunt down a group of replicants—bioengineered beings—in 2019 Los Angeles.

  • Blade Runner is a point and click adventure game, developed by Westwood Studios for the PC. Rather than re-tell the 1982 Blade Runner film, the developers created a different story set in the same universe, serving as a side story. The game was published by Virgin Interactive Entertainment and released in 1997. The player assumes the role of "Blade Runner" Ray McCoy, who must hunt down a group of replicants—bioengineered beings—in 2019 Los Angeles. The new story takes place at the same time as the events of the film. Several of the film's characters are also in the game, with the original actors returning to voice them. Although the film's main character, Deckard, only appears fleetingly in a non speaking role in Blade Runner, he is referred to multiple times, and his recent activities are mentioned by non-player characters. Other parallels with the film include the in-game reproduction of several prominent locations, buildings, and scenes. Blade Runner was advertised as "the first real time 3D adventure game", since it was the first adventure game to use real-time 3D models for the game characters, as opposed to the classic method of hand-drawn/pre-rendered characters. Though games at the time were reliant on 3D accelerators, Westwood created their own technology, called "voxel plus", which bypassed the need for a hardware 3D accelerator. Notably, the player's actions affected the outcome of the game with thirteen possible endings. Blade Runner received generally positive reviews, and was nominated for "Best Adventure Game" of 1997 at the PC Gamer awards.

  • Blade Runner è un videogioco del tipo avventura grafica tridimensionale basata sull'omonimo film diretto da Ridley Scott, ispirato a sua volta da un racconto di Philip K. Dick, intitolato "Ma gli androidi sognano pecore elettriche?". Il gioco si svolge in una brumosa megalopoli del futuro, popolata di esseri umani artificiali, chiamati "replicanti", concepiti per essere usati nei lavori più umili e destinati ad avere una vita brevissima. Il giocatore si cala nei panni dell'agente McCoy, un cacciatore di androidi, che durante l'avventura avrà modo di conoscere la reale condizione delle sue "vittime, anche dal loro punto di vista. Prodotto dai Westwood Studios nel 1998, il videogioco si concentra più sul lavoro investigativo che sugli enigmi di stampo classico. Le decisioni prese dal giocatore durante il gioco si ripercuoteranno sull'esito della storia, portandola ad una delle sei possibili conclusioni.
