About

Bioshock is a critically acclaimed video game developed by Irrational Games and published by 2K Games. Released in 2007, this first-person shooter is set in the fictional underwater city of Rapture, which was founded in the 1940s by Andrew Ryan, a wealthy industrialist who sought to create a utopia for artists and scientists. Players take on the role of Jack, a passenger on a plane that crashes in Rapture, and must navigate the city's crumbling infrastructure and battle against the city's inhabitants, who have been genetically modified to have superhuman abilities. As Jack delves deeper into the city, he discovers that Rapture was founded on the principles of Objectivism, which emphasizes individual freedom and rejects government intervention. However, the city's descent into chaos and decay is revealed through a series of audio diaries left behind by the city's inhabitants, which provide insight into the city's dark history and the motivations of its founders. Throughout the game, Jack must make difficult moral choices and confront the consequences of his actions, all while uncovering the secrets of Rapture and the true purpose of his presence in the city.
