Call of the Dragonfly

Call of the Dragonfly is a cancelled Xbox game by Lost Boys Games. It was to be a spooky mystery spy thriller.



Plot
In the year 2050, southern England is in a state of dread. Young women have been vanishing. Police have no clues.

You play as Angel, a female member of a covert operations team. Your task is to investigate these disappearances.

Following a tip off, your prime suspect is a secret underground corporation. You would have needed to infiltrate the heavily fortified complex and find the truth.

Sometime in 2001 the plot was changed.

You are Chrys Lane, a female member of a covert operations team. Your task is to investigate Meditech, a shady technology company. They are suspected to be involved in the abduction of several British scientists.

During her investigation, Chrys is infected with an experimental nano-virus. Instead of killing her, it gives her special powers. You would have needed to infiltrate the Meditech facility and find the antidote.

Gameplay
Both version of the game both had a heavy emphasis on stealth. The game would have played in a third-person view with cinematic camera angles.

Cancellation
Every publisher turned down the game, so in the end Lost Boy Games declared defeat and did not bother. In 2003, Lost Boy Games was sold to Media Republic. Lost Boy Games became Guerrilla Games, known for the Killzone series.
