About

Prepare your mind, body and soul for a horrific game of hide and seek, where you are the hunted! From the people at Psygnosis comes this bone-chilling, mind-numbing strategy title that will make you dive into your brain and cringe with fear. The game is Sentinel Returns for the PlayStation. You are a scientist, exploring the mysteries of an unknown substance. When this mysterious substance is given to an equally unknown specimen, a world dominated by The Sentinel is revealed. In this unreal universe, the battle for life's very essence is in motion. Possibly, when you finish with the hundreds of specimens that you have, you will seek the answers to your questions. However, failing this task has unknown repercussions....
