A supernatural horror action game with a story devised by the master mythmaker, novelist and filmmaker Clive Barker. Mingling the darkest elements of Barker's horror fiction and films, Jericho deals with the mysterious reappearance of a lost city in a remote desert. When a form of evil that goes right back to the dawn of days resurfaces from there, a Special Forces squad, trained in both conventional warfare and the arcane arts, is sent in. Their mission: hunt down and destroy the evil that lurks at the heart of the city before it destroys humanity.
Clive Barker's Jericho is a game that could have made a name for itself 2-3 years ago but ultimately falls short in the current game market. Although the controls are relatively good and the ability to swap between team members relatively early in the game are nice, eventually the novelty wears off and becomes tedious.
The enemy AI itself is rather mindless and killing just about anything takes entirely to long.
So it's definitely more artificial than intelligent... The enemy's AI is doing fine for itself; but your teammates' AI is non-existent!!! They keep getting themselves killed and that is, for me, the game's worst flaw. Control is easy, the character swap is fun, storyline is interesting, graphics are OK. But you have to revive your squad ALL the time.
