BioShock is a dynamic, unique, and unexpected first-person shooter. You uncover a rusting bathysphere and dive into Rapture, a city buried beneath the sea after your plane crashes into unknown waters.

Rapture was designed to be an isolated paradise by corporate magnate Andrew Ryan, but the revelation of ADAM, a biological substance that can be utilized to confer superhuman abilities, started the city's chaotic collapse.

BioShock is a 2007 first-person shooter game published by 2K Games and developed by 2K Boston, later Irrational Games. It's the first entry in the BioShock franchise. The game is seen as a worthy successor to the System Shock series, on which several members of Irrational's crew had previously worked.

BioShock is a first-person shooter featuring stealth mechanics and role-playing game customization, similar to System Shock 2. You play as Jack as he is led through Rapture to accomplish various goals. As you go through the enemy troops, you gain a variety of weapons and plasmids.

You may switch between one active weapon and one active plasmid at any moment, allowing you to create combo strikes against certain foes, such as stunning a Splicer before striking them down with a wrench.

Many guns have alternative ammo types that may be used instead for extra advantages, like bullets that inflict fire damage. A lot of guns are limited by the ammo you collect through Rapture.

Plasmid usage depletes a serum called EVE, which may be replenished using EVE syringes you gather. You have a health bar that decreases when you take damage. Medical kits may be found everywhere across Rapture to help you regain your health. You will be revived in the last Vita-Chamber that you traversed with limited quantities of health and EVE if your health drops to zero.

The game gives you various possibilities for overcoming problems. You can utilize plasmids to lure enemies into traps or turn enemies against each other, or use stealth techniques to evade detection by hostiles such as security systems and turrets, in addition to direct combat.

You may hack into any of Rapture's automated systems through a mini-game similar to Pipe Mania in which you must link two spots on opposing sides of a grid with a limited number of pipes in a given period of time, failing to accomplish it in time will cause losing health and perhaps raising alarms.

You can get money through exploring Rapture and looting the bodies of killed enemies; this money may be spent at vending machines to refill ammo, health, EVE, and other things; vending machines, like security cameras, can be hacked to lower the costs of items purchased from them.

Completing various objectives, as well as saving or killing the Little Sisters after beating their Big Daddy, can earn you ADAM. ADAM is used to buy new plasmids from the Gatherer's Garden machines that can be found all across Rapture.

In addition to plasmids, you'll obtain and purchase tonics that give Jack passive benefits like increasing his strength, making EVE more efficient, or making him more damage resistant. You will only have a certain number of plasmids and tonics active at any given time, and you can switch between them at various stations throughout Rapture.
