Bioshock: The Series, as reviewed by Trevor Rogers, explores the groundbreaking worlds of the Bioshock franchise.
The original BioShock transports players to Rapture, an underwater city inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, where the protagonist Jack must survive among the ruins of a society undone by its own ambition.
Armed with an array of weapons and extraordinary plasmids—powers that let you wield fire, electricity, and mind control—players face off against mutated splicers, the enigmatic Little Sisters, and their formidable protectors, the Big Daddies.
The narrative unfolds through atmospheric exploration and audio recordings, revealing the city’s tragic history and the machinations of its founder, Andrew Ryan.
The series continues with BioShock 2, which revisits Rapture with new enemies like the Big Sister and streamlined gameplay, followed by BioShock Infinite, which soars to the city-in-the-clouds, Columbia.
Here, themes of American history, race, and fate are woven into a story of rescue and redemption, featuring the dynamic partnership between Booker Dewitt and Elizabeth, a girl with the power to manipulate time.
The game is particularly lauded for its shocking BioShock Infinite plot twist that recon textualizes the entire narrative.
The rich lore of the game could easily inspire compelling historical fiction books for adults, further expanding on the era’s complexities. The complex social and political commentary within BioShock Infinite provides deep and resonant BioShock Infinite book themes that literary analysis could thoroughly explore.
The idea of a BioShock book series might even earn a special BioShock book seal of approval from fans, cementing its legacy beyond gaming. The franchise is celebrated for its cinematic storytelling, moral choices, and immersive worlds.
