The premise, in the publisher's words
Metro 2033 is a 2010 first-person shooter survival horror video game developed by 4A Games and published by THQ. The story is based on Dmitry Glukhovsky's novel of the same name, where survivors of a nuclear war have taken refuge in the Metro tunnels of Moscow. The player controls the silent protagonist Artyom, a man who must save his home station from the dangers lurking within the Metro. In the game, the player encounters human and mutant enemies, who can be killed with a variety of firearms. They must also wear a gas mask to explore areas covered in nuclear radiation, both underground and on the surface.
