The Counter Terrorist Unit is under attack and an agent will die within 24 hours unless you, as Jack Bauer, can save the day. Taking place in between seasons four and five of the hit television series, 24: Agent Down combines puzzle-style mini-games with stealth-oriented action, as players infiltrate CTU to neutralize enemies and rescue hostages. Joining Jack Bauer is Curtis Manning, who can be called upon to take out terrorists with his sniper rifle. As Bauer carefully makes his way across CTU, he can plant explosives to use as decoys, fire a dart gun, or slit an enemy's throat with his knife. Puzzles involve hacking into computer systems or defusing traps so you can safely continue the mission before time runs out. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
