You are Quaid (aren't you?). You have a good job (Your life as you know it no longer exists), and a lovely wife(She's on their side).
You're about to take a dream vacation to Mars (they're trying to kill you). It should be fun (deadly secrets are being unlocked by your mind implant), and exciting (only you can activate the oxygen reactor and prevent an interplanetary catastrophe).
Nothing is what it seems in this sci-fi action adventure - and no one can be trusted. Danger is everywhere: secret government agents, ninja hitmen and futuristic robot drones attempt to destroy you. But you must keep going...the human race is at stake.
Have a safe trip. (You'll never make it alive...)
The cement factory holds a deadly secret - find it.
You'll need plenty of firepower once inside the hidden Martian caverns.
The reactor is set to self-destruct...and you're out of time.
Based on the 1990 Schwarzenegger film of the same name, Total Recall for the NES generally adheres to the movie's plot across its nine levels. Unlike the various PC iterations, this title was created by Interplay and published by Acclaim.
Players control Doug Quaid as he platform hops across Earth and Mars in search of his stolen memories and the responsible parties. A collection of police, soldiers, and creatures will try to stop him. Quaid's default attack is a strong punch, though guns can be knocked away from some guards and picked up for use. Cutscenes between certain levels tell the movie's plot, and feature likenesses of the actors from the film (including Arnold).
Sequences in the film are also replicated more tightly than in the PC versions. Quaid will be chased by henchman Richter in the first level, and must battle his wife inside their apartment. The security x-ray scanner takes up a level, as does the subway battle after. The player will also commandeer a Martian taxi for a driving level inside the colony, and windows can be shot out on Mars, sucking out any unfortunate baddies nearby.
