Sanity: Aiken's Artifact - Full Game Walkthrough

Sanity: Aiken's Artifact is a sci-fi action RPG video game developed by Monolith Productions and published by Fox Interactive exclusively for Windows, originally released in September 2000. The game is set in a futuristic version of the 21st century, when a revolutionary discovery of a psionic serum that greatly enhances the power of the human brain is made by Dr. Joan Aiken. However, the serum eventually begins to be used maliciously by renegade criminals, and the government is forced to create a regulatory department to oversee the serum's production and use, called the Department of National Psionic Control (DNPC). Players take on the role of DNPC special agent Nathaniel Cain, a genetically engineered human who possesses enhanced psychic abilities, called Talents, to fight rogue psionics and unravel the mysteries behind his own origins and the world around him. The game features a bird's eye view perspective, a card collection system largely inspired by Magic: The Gathering and Pokemon, which features a total of 100 talent cards divided into 8 classes called totems: Fire, Sun, Illusion, Science, Demonology, Death, Storm and Truth. Some talent cards are hidden in maps and others could be purchased or downloaded as booster pack add-ons from Monolith's website and various gaming magazine websites shortly after the game's release to be used on the multiplayer mode. ===== Mods Used ===== • dgVoodoo2 (by Dege): https://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgV... • FOV Fix (by Automaniak and myself): https://community.pcgamingwiki.com/fi... ===== Game Info ===== • Developer: Monolith Productions • Publisher: Fox Interactive • Initial release date: September 22, 2000 • Platforms: Microsoft Windows • Genres: Adventure, Action, ARPG, CCG, Puzzle, Shooter • Themes: Fantasy, Sci-fi • Engine: LithTech 2.0 (Direct3D 7) ===== Walkthrough Info ===== • Platform: Microsoft Windows • Recording: Bandicam • Difficulty: Hard • Editing: VEGAS Pro 21 ===== Additional Info ===== • Plot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanity:... • Essential improvements: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/San... ===== Timestamps ===== 00:00:00 - Logo Intros 00:00:44 - Main Menu 00:01:01 - Intro 00:04:09 - DNPC Headquarters 00:26:42 - Pharaoh Village Trailer Park 00:47:56 - The Psychic Link 01:14:05 - Priscilla Divine (Boss Level) 01:24:20 - Back at DNPC Headquarters 01:49:00 - The Grand Theater 02:22:56 - Deathtrap 02:39:04 - Adrian Starr (Boss Level) 02:56:04 - Aiken Pharmaceuticals 03:37:09 - Aiken Research Level 04:37:22 - Joan Aiken (Boss Level) 04:56:02 - Professor Krebspawn's House 05:15:54 - The Catacombs 05:51:35 - Elijah Krebspawn (Boss Level) 06:13:43 - Dead City 06:38:45 - Waterfront 07:27:13 - The Bone Priest (Boss Level) 07:34:47 - Power Station 08:05:18 - Meat Plant 08:38:02 - Golgotham (Boss Level) 09:12:06 - Aftermath 09:22:09 - Credits
