Bioshock (Mobile 3D version for BREW) - Unreleased Mobile Chapter: Fort Frolic
19BioShock was released on the 21st of August 2007 and started a succesful and loved franchise, set in a retro-sci-fi environment.
In 2008, in Mumbai, India, Indiagames secured the rights to release the game on mobile phones from 2K Games - the company which published the original BioShock - to be released in both 2D and 3D. The work began in 2008, to be finished by 2010 when the game finally became available on a range of BREW-based mobile phones on Verizon's carrier. 2D and 3D versions were developed and released on BREW, and a 2D version was made for the j2me phones.
The company made the first part, which covered roughly one third of the original BioShock game for PC. Incidentally, I have made a walkthrough of this part a while ago:

Even less known is that the second part was also in the works, and was finished at around 80% before being scrapped. After the existance of this game was uncovered, I was looking for any information about this elusive sequel.
Then, a source which asked to remain anonymous, contacted me and shared the footage of this unfininished game. It is a development build, run on BREW Simulator on PC. After some discussion the source agreed to make a full walkthrough of the game, which I will be sharing with you after editing, by episodes.
The first episode is set in Fort Frolic and takes place just after the end of the first part of the mobile game. You will have to counter the demented artist Sander Cohen and his friends.
[NOTES]
- The game build version is 0.0.7. It was a simulator-specific build. As I understood there was no build made for actual phones.
- The recorded gameplay featured no music in-game, including in the menu. I have added some music from youtube audio library and background sound from Bioshock Remastered.
- It appears that the audio diaries past the first one were not implemented, so they cannot be picked up.
- There is an IGN article written in 2021 which explains how the game was made and why there are two parts: https://www.ign.com/articles/bioshock-mobile-game-2k-tridev-development
