Tap phone lines, crack complex codes, defeat computerized defense systems. Track suspects around the globe as you put together the pieces to a worldwide criminal plot. A seasoned veteran of modern, high-tech undercover operations, Remington always obeys the two main rules of Covert Action: 1. Use your intelligence. 2. If Rule One fails, use your other weapons.

* Take on the role of CIA agent Maxine "Max" Remington or her male counterpart, Maximillian.
* Travel to over 45 cities on 3 continents.
* Enjoy unlimited number of cases to solve.
* Infliltrate buildings, break codes, unravel plots and sub-plots! Decide which leads to follow, and which to ignore.
