Burn Cycle is a CD-i game with full motion video released in 1994, with a PC/MAC CD-ROM port following in 1995. Publisher Philips Interactive Media announced that in 1996 all of its CD-i games would be ported to the Sega Saturn and PlayStation - Burn Cycle would have been the first, but despite being advertised, neither version ever materialised.

Gameplay

In its original CDI form, Burn Cycle uses pre-rendered 3D FMV for the play enviroment. like D and Yumemi Mystery Mansion, the player has to complete the game in real time in a 2 hour time limit, (although the player can save proogress at anytime) and assumes the role of cyberpunk antihero Sol Cutter, a data thief attempting to clear his brain of a digital virus he unwittingly downloaded. unusually for games of the FMV point n click 3D adventure genre, there are lightgun style shooting segments, perhaps comparable to Snatcher or Maximum Force.
