The FarCry Total Conversion modification from seven students of the University of Salford is now ready to be played by the world. In development for 7 months from concept to final version, this mod is not your traditional FPS.

Take control of bio-chemical scientist Lucy Rhea as part of the Extra-terrestrial Reconnaissance Authority (ETRA). On a routine mission to the planet designated "Hestia" all dropships mysteriously lose control and crash land on the planet.

Either I need a new prescription for my eyeglasses or the graphics are really fuzzy in this mod. I think they did that deliberately for 'atmosphere' but it would drive me nuts!

very cool mod. The setting is very different than most out there. Almost myst like. If you are expecting a shooter, think again. but there is some fun puzzle solving and and lots of exploration.
