1917: The Alien Invasion DX Remastered (Nintendo Switch)
The year is 1917 – war engulfed the earth. Billions were killed at the
hands of unprecedented technology in the name of fanaticism. Yet all
previous atrocities were as preambles to an even greater, unforeseeable
catastrophe. When on the 15th April, a host of aliens descended from
war-torn skies and opened fire indiscriminately on soldier and civilian
alike, the foundations of the world were shaken and mankind would face
his darkest hour. Against such a terrifying, overwhelming foe, the
scrambling, exhausted nations of Earth had no choice but to put aside
their old grudges and fight side by side if they wanted to avert total
extinction – or worse. Still, courage and unity were not enough to
match the sheer power of a species so advanced that the very
cosmosproved no obstacle to them. Meanwhile Dr. Brunhild Stahlmüller,
an accomplished scientist, worked tirelessly with her assistant,Harmuth
Griesgram, on developing an experimental airplane codenamed the Red
Beezlebub. Based not only on existing aeronautical technology but also
on fragments of alien wrecks from the recent battlefields, this new
invention is capable of prolonged atmospheric flight as well as deep,
interstellar travel. Finding no pilots left in any condition – bodily
or mentally – to take the pilot seat, the brave doctor dons the helmet
herself and takes the Red Beezlebub on her virgin flight, to the
battlefields of Verdun. Her target: the hessmaster, the new, self –
crowned king of humanity. A usurper and abomination. Fuel led by
gasoline and hatred, her Valkyrie’s flight will end either in victory
or glorious death. Little did she know that he himself is only a piece
on the real player’s board, and she is watching Brunhild’s every move
with greedy, leering eyes…
