A tropical paradise seethes with hidden evil in Far Cry®, a cunningly detailed action shooter that pushes the boundaries of combat to shocking new levels. Freelance mariner Jack Carver is cursing the day he ever came to this island. A week ago, a brash female reporter named Valerie had offered him an incredible sum of cash to take her to this unspoiled paradise. Shortly after docking, however, Jack's boat was greeted by artillery fire from a mysterious militia group swarming about the island. With his boat destroyed, his money gone, and the gorgeous Valerie suddenly missing, Jack now finds himself facing an army of mercenaries amidst the wilds of the island, with nothing but a gun and his wits to survive. But the further he pushes into the lush jungle canopy, the stranger things become. Jack encounters an insider within the militia group who reveals the horrific details of the mercenaries' true intentions. He presents Jack with an unsettling choice: battle the deadliest mercenaries, or condemn the human race to a maniac's insidious agenda.

The game is pretty broken out of the gate.. HOWEVER- you can mod the game a LOT because the scripting is done through Lua. I've already gone in and changed things I thought would make the experience better. :D
Ok the things this game still has are good and bad. Good things: -Campaign allowed you to approach the goal in non linear way meaning a lot of missions could be completed in multiple ways with multiple approaches meaning you want to sneak or kill everting in site. The story is cheesy it gets you in at least and you get Jack Carver the cynic to become a hero of the hour. Mixed Some of the lvls are pretty good and some are dam crap. The graphics was once boarder pushing but it shows its age. Tough for me its ok. Bad. Some ai difficulty spikes really spike hard, also in just simple installation without mods etc the enemy seas you behind cover ei if you go around tents they shoot trough it with surgical precision. All in all I do recommend this game for me its a bit nostalgic. When this was up I was starting high school, dam I'm getting old.
Still in 2026, this game is still very enjoyable. Could not stop playing the campaign ontil finished. Be careful around difficulty. "Medium" is the way to go first time. "Challenging" you can do another time, cause that ♥♥♥♥ is hard :) 8.5/10 game, and probably 10/10 for the time it was created.
