Hellboy: Asylum Seeker is a third-person adventure game in which you play as Hellboy- Mike Mignola's comic-book hero and paranormal investigator.
The game takes place in 1960's Prague, during Hellboy's early work with the BPRD (British Paranormal Research Division). Hellboy and Sara are investigating their missing agent Peter, who lost contact with his team somewhere in Czechoslovakia. It's up to Hellboy to uncover the events surrounding that disappearance, and set things right.
Gameplay is similar to Capcom's Resident Evil series, with adventure-game dialogue and puzzles punctuated with fights. The game is fully 3D, with a bleak artistic style that is unlike the comic.
Take the third-person role of "the big red guy," to keep humanity safe from unnatural evil of all sorts in this 3D action adventure. The game is based on the Hellboy comics, created by Mike Mignola. The demonic hero Hellboy was brought into this existence by an occult Nazi summoning performed in England during World War II, but was taken in and befriended by Allied forces.
Though possessing certain inhuman abilities and attributes, such as a powerful left hand made of steel, Hellboy excels as a detective, solving mysteries of supernatural circumstance. Working for the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense, players will face both action and puzzle-solving in this PS game.
