controlling it. It is feared that if it stops or crashes into a populated area
it could disastrous. Connie, an exec suggests derailing it but the man in
charge refuses to do that on account of what it will cost. When attempts to
stop it fail, there's fear of what they can do. But when Frank and Will have a
close call with it, Frank decides to stop it themselves by coupling on to it.
Will is not sure about it but sticks with Frank.
How could we gamify this film?
Make it a 3rd Person
Action Adventure. Copy all the elements of the game, control the train, drive
cars to catch train, pilot helicopters, control the 777 Train, quick time
events, running, failure elements.
What genre world you choose and why?
3rd Person Action
Adventure - This would give developers to really grasp the story, give a
seemless feel to the game and feel like you are controlling the movie, you
could could use different game play elements to tell the story from different
situations. You could initially play as Dewey and Chase the train, then control
the train with the school children on, less cut scenes and more action, an
almost fully playable game which be an intense and immersive experience
and really could get the best out of the plot and give use the all the
characters in the game.
