Cold War is a video game developed by Czech developer Mindware Studios and published by DreamCatcher Games (Linux Game Publishing for Linux). The game is similar to the Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell series of games in that it uses a stealth-action system of gameplay. The game distinguishes itself by adding an item invention system where the player can use seemingly useless objects to create new tools and weapons. Also, the story of the game centers on a civilian reporter, so no extremely acrobatic moves are available to the player. Another aspect of the game is that the player can take many different approaches to winning the game. The game was released in North America for Microsoft Windows and Xbox on September 27, 2005. The Linux version was released on August 4, 2006.
Plot
Cold War takes place in 1986 and follows the story of a freelance journalist Matthew Carter who finds himself in the midst of an international conspiracy that aims to control the U.S.S.R.. Twelve hours after arriving in Moscow in hopes of gathering material for a Pulitzer Prize winning story, he finds himself thrown into KGB's political prison and framed for an attempted murder of the president. The reason for this was unknown, however, a unidentified female agent placed a prototype X-Ray camera in replacement with his original one. Carter noticed this unknown device and decided to capture a fire extinguisher for testing, but the chemicals in the flash powder caused the object to explode, making him visible to the guards.
Inside the prison, he met a former Soviet agent whom he agreed to accompany with. The two escaped by using a shaft to go to the outer areas of the prison. With each investigation, the agent helped Carter by assisting him from conspiracies.
Using only recovered weapons and improvised gadgets, he must now evade or overcome elite Soviet forces and defeat the conspiracy before he is sent to a Siberian prison camp or killed.

L'intrigue se déroule au milieu des années 1980, quelque part derrière le rideau de fer, dans l'atmosphère étouffante de l'ancienne Union soviétique communiste. Le journaliste Matt Carter devient le proverbial grain de sable dans les rouages d'une conspiration internationale visant à dominer l'URSS de l'époque. Il est précisément ce genre de grain de sable qui pourrait facilement faire capoter la machine ou être écrasé par elle.

Mettez-vous à la place d'un journaliste qui n'a à sa disposition que son bon sens et plusieurs gadgets qu'il a fabriqués à partir de choses ordinaires. Entrez dans les couloirs sombres des enceintes communistes, mettez-vous à l'abri dans l'ombre et utilisez votre ingéniosité pour prendre votre ennemi par surprise au bon moment. Utilisez votre incroyable caméra qui peut voir à travers les murs. Devenez aussi invisible que la nuit, aussi rapide que le vent, et aussi silencieux que la mort.

💡️ Commentaires généraux:
Les distributeurs TuxGames / LGP ayant fermés leurs portes, ce jeu n'est plus disponible à la vente.
Il sort donc de la comptabilisation des jeux Linux. Néanmoins nous conservons cette fiche dans l'alternative où il serait ré-édité en version Linux (Gog.com ?).
