Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Quarantine is a First-Person Vehicular Combat Game developed by Imageexcel and released by GameTek in 1994 for MSDOS and the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer. It was part of the wave of first-person games that followed the release of the original Doom in 1993.The game is set in the 2040s in a cesspool of a burg called KEMO City. Criminals roam the streets in armored hovercars, terrorizing citizens without fear of retribution. OmniCorp rules the city with an iron fist, via a massive wall around the city under the guise of a "defensive measure". The wall has only one -sealed- exit, so essentially the entire city is one big prison for everyone who lives within it, criminal or otherwise. Construction of the wall started off in 2029 and was completed in 2032.Just prior to the events of the game, Omnicorp decided to test the behavior-altering chemical Hydergine 344 on the citizens. This chemical was supposed to pacify them, and was distributed through the city's water supply. Unfortunately, OmniCorp failed to predict the chemical's reaction to the stagnant water, resulting in massive brain damage and insanity in many citizens. More than half the population became crazed killers overnight.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })You are Drake Edgewater, trash-talking, hard-drinking cab driver and one of the lucky few unaffected by the spreading virus. You drive a '52 Checker "hovercab", armed with an assortment of lethal weaponry. Your goal is to deliver passengers and packages for what money you can scrounge, buy upgrades, and eventually escape.The game later received a sequel, Road Warrior, which featured largely the same gameplay but a more mission-based, story focused campaign. Both of these should not be confused with the films of the same names. | |

Gatling Good | |
| Quarantine (Video Game) / int_128e4ba8 | comment |
Gatling Good: The Punisher (no, not that one [even though he probably will get wet dreams about the weapons and psychos in this game]) is a miniaturized Gatling-style revolver cannon that can hold up to 300 rounds. Then there's the even more powerful variant, the Banshee, which eats up ammo like a starved animal and will not appear until the third level. | |

A specific upgrade (the C4 Bumper) instantly kills any vehicle you run into. It only has four shots, however, and it's expensive to "reload". | |

Ramming Always Works: Subverted. Ramming sometimes works. When all else fails and you run out of ammo, its all you have. You can end up taking tremendous damage however from some collisions so it's impractical, and on timed missions it's inadvisable. | |

Unwinnable by Mistake: A horrible glitch can be triggered just before you fight the Hoverboy boss, by bizarrely looking at your own map of all things. Doing so registers the boss as 30km away from you (way outside the boundaries of the game's world), and his health also goes off-the-scale, making him impossible to engage, let alone fight. | |

Body Armor as Hit Points | |
| Quarantine (Video Game) / int_7e8a8eac | comment |
Body Armor as Hit Points: The armor that you buy in service shops serves as extra points for your rather fragile cabbie. There are three varieties of armor in the game, but even then the protection isn't enough to deter bullets and explosions that your cabbie will endure. It seems that armor here in this game is Made of Plasticine, as if the game wasn't hard enough. Oh, and the other two armor versions won't be available until you finish all missions in the respective level that you're on ( the second version of armor isn't available until you're in the second level while the third won't be available until you're in the fourth level). Skirts dangerously close to Armor Is Useless. | |

Macross Missile Massacre: You can mount missile launchers for your cab, but only one particular version that is only available once you reach the third level can launch a missile which has the ability to split into multiple warheads that can ravage a vehicle in one hit depending on what vehicle you're facing, and it's rather pricey to get, especially its ammo. | |

Shotguns Are Just Better: You can mount a shotgun for your cab and it does pretty much what you expect a shotgun to be. Except it's not a Short-Range Shotgun and it skirts into Game-Breaker territory thanks to its near-unbalanced power and dirt-cheap price for its ammunition. It is available once you get to the second level and appears in the later maps from that point on. | |

Car Fu: Not very effective here, curiously enough, as ramming other cars is as likely to damage you as them. Pedestrians on the other hand... A specific upgrade (the C4 Bumper) instantly kills any vehicle you run into. It only has four shots, however, and it's expensive to "reload". | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Quarantine (Video Game) / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: In the ending Drake unleashes the dangerous Hydergine 344 upon the outside, to give the civilized world a taste of their own medicine. Now the problem here is, that's infecting millions to billions of innocent people with a hate plague. This is supposed to be a punk game. Punks rage against the establishment, the corporations, THE MAN. Only thugs target the general populous indiscriminately. Then again, given how human life is valued so little in Kemo, this outcome was probably inevitable. | |

Gangland Drive-By | |
| Quarantine (Video Game) / int_d46a809e | comment |
Gangland Drive-By: Probably the first video game to feature it long before Grand Theft Auto III. Purchasing the machine gun upgrade from the Weapon King shop gives you an Uzi SMG which allows you to fire out from the side windows of your cab to clean out both pedestrians and vehicles alike to make your life easier. | |

Multi-Platform | |
| Quarantine (Video Game) / int_dcff8307 | comment |
Multi-Platform: The game was functionally identical in both the DOS and 3DO versions, but the 3DO version included Full Motion Video cutscenes featuring Drake in his cabnote The PC version did include these cutscenes as well, but they were only accessibly with specific technology and software installed, which was actually kind of rare at the time. It also features an odd collection of tracks by Australian alt-rock bands that really don't sync well with the gameplay, although the game also includes the ability to play your own CDs instead. | |

Death Course | |
| Quarantine (Video Game) / int_e53a34aa | comment |
Death Course: Early in Road Warrior, Drake must negotiate a desert in the midst of a sandstorm, and filled with hostile tanks. His cab stands no chance in combat against said tanks, and the player's only option is to speed past them and hope you don't crash directly into one, thanks to the low visibility. They can't see you too well either, so they're firing wildly trying to hit you- and just might. And if you don't hurry, you'll run out of battery power. | |

Expy: Although Drake Edgewater is hardly given any characterization, he's essentially Travis Bickle with an Iron Woobie streak who justifiably thinks himself as the Only Sane Man in KEMO city, and wants to get the hell out of the corrupt city for good which he eventually does. OmniCorp is a riff on Omni Consumer Products from RoboCop, complete with a near-identical logo. | |

The Taxi | |
| Quarantine (Video Game) / int_e9fcaa | comment |
The Taxi: Quarantine was the original Crazy Taxi, long before Crazy Taxi came along. It would have been more aptly titled since this game has you gaining fares in a city run amok and your car equipped with the best weaponry the city can offer. | |

Watch the Paint Job: You may have a classic durable yellow cab with a wonderful array of on-board weaponry, but it is most certainly not invincible. You will get shot up to hell and back for just driving through the wrong neighborhood. | |

Emergency Weapon: Your headlight-mounted "Hood Guns" are fast-firing machine guns that are useful for a little while as your main weapon. You're going to want to upgrade to something better fairly quickly. You always have these equipped, however. | |

Hover Car: All the cars in the game use anti-gravity propulsion, save the tanks seen in the sequel. They are tied to a power grid embedded in the roads and run on batteries whenever they go off-road. | |

Drives Like Crazy: The mooks in their cars do this to you if you get in their way. You, too, can likewise do the same, though it's better to do it on pedestrians unless they wave their hands at you for a fare. | |

Cut Scene: Road Warrior had these, in the form of comic-book pages. Typically, they involved Drake complaining about something. The 3DO and PC-CD versions of the first game had working Full Motion Video cutscenes for both the intro and ending of the game. | |

Everything Trying to Kill You: And yes, the spike traps, mines, and walled defenses at the edge of the maps can harm you too if you're not careful. Although it's partially averted with other taxis and some pedestrians either minding their own business or calling you to hitch a ride. | |
