It went on to win the Interactive Achievement Award for 'Computer Adventure Game of the Year,' and was nominated for 'Best Adventure Game' by PC Gamer. The game received generally positive reviews, and was a commercial success, selling over one million units worldwide. Unlike many games of its time, which used polygon-based renderers exploiting 3D accelerators, Westwood opted for their own software-based renderer using voxel technology. The game also features extracts from the film's soundtrack.Д«lade Runner was advertised as a ' real-time 3D adventure game,' since it was one of the first adventure games to use both 3D character rendering and a game world which progressed in real-time (as opposed to waiting for the player's actions). Other parallels with the film include the reproduction of several prominent locations, as well as scenes and dialogue closely modelled on the original. Instead, he is referred to on multiple occasions, is seen several times, and his activities as depicted in the film are mentioned. Although several of the film's characters appear in the game, with some of the original actors returning to voice them, the film's protagonist, Rick Deckard, does not appear in a speaking role. Set in 2019 Los Angeles, the game tells the story of Ray McCoy, an elite detective charged with hunting down a group of dangerous replicants (bioengineered androids designed to look and act like humans). The game is not a direct adaptation of the 1982 Ridley Scott film Blade Runner but is instead a ' sidequel', telling an original story, which runs parallel to the film's plot, occasionally intersecting with it. Blade Runner is a point-and-click adventure game developed by Westwood Studios and published by Virgin Interactive for Microsoft Windows, released on November 17, 1997.
