Players face battles in helicopter, tanks, jeeps, and on foot as they enter the politically unstable nation of Arawas -- the setting for Operation Shadow. Players take the role of an operative in Team Shadow, a secretive organization formed to protect global security from the threats of extremist organizations and corrupt regimes. This N-Gage exclusive third-person shooter is designed with enemies that develops more challenging tactics as gamers progress through the single-player game. Multiplayer games, for up to four, are supported by the handheld's built-in Bluetooth wireless networking technology.
