| A CITY CRAWLING WITH CONFUSION |
Imagine a normal mid-western U.S. town, built at the base of a vast forest. Business thrived here, especially with the advent of several new industries. Heck, you can't find a more peaceful wilderness getaway than Raccoon City.
Then the trouble began. And it leads back to when the corporation arrived.
Rumors began to spread, and the town was overcome with odd occurrences. Unidentifiable creatures appeared out of nowhere, and fatal accidents happened at an alarming rate. Word got out about a severe accident at a mountain lab. Not one of the townspeople knew what was happening to their quaint, formaley serene hamlet.
The Raccoon Police Department, in an effort to calm the growing fear among locals, recruited several new officers. Leon S. Kennedy is one of the promising new recruits. As Leon prepares to join his new unit, he attempts to contact the captain who hired him, but has no luck reaching him. Unfazed, he continues into Raccoon City to his new job.
At the other side of town, a distraught Claire Redfield searches for her missing brother, Chris. Claire begins her search in Raccoon City, the last known location of her brother nearly two months ago, only to learn about the "accident" in the forest. Is Chris still in Raccoon City?
Sadly for Leon and Claire, they are completely unaware of the overwhelming world of horror and despair they are both about to enter. . .
Now the intensity of that horror, from mild to nightmarish, is yours to control. When you start the game, the intensity feature allows you to set the level of violence and color of blood. See page 5.
