[h1]Storyline – Rescue Your Buddy who is in danger[/h1]
In this first-person shooter video game, the player can assume the role of the main character named Ozgur, whose ultimate objective is to save his friend from one of the leading mafias of Istanbul Dalyan. Daylan has stolen a cryptex, containing some sensitive information regarding something. The Mafia is struggling to find a way to unlock it but failed because it requires a password. The protagonist knows a way how to unlock it, and maybe it belongs to him. Bad guys abducted the protagonist’s friend, and start forcing him to find the required password to open it.
Furthermore, the protagonist loves his friend and wants to save him at any cost. Therefore, he gets ready to find and open the cryptex. As mentioned above, up to six scenarios are there, and each one requires the completion of objectives to provide the information you are looking for. Once the Mafia assigned you a job, start navigating the environment from a first-person viewpoint, as you are only limited to watch the protagonist’s hand holding a pistol in it. Interaction with other players may reveal a lot of secrets regarding the Mafia and cryptex.

CRYPTEX is a rich, deep story that keeps on giving, even after the player has completed his first walkthrough. Each scene of the video game is packed with meaning, and working out where the player should go next is rewarding because each subplot is gripping.
