Cyberia is an action game with puzzle sequences set in a world controlled by two rival superpowers. In the year 2027, the Free World Alliance and the Cartel are engaged in a struggle for power, and Zak, a cyber-hacker freed from prison, must infiltrate the Cyberia Complex to uncover the truth about a mysterious weapon being developed there.
As Zak navigates through the complex, he faces numerous challenges, including Cartel forces sent to stop him and genetically engineered creations that have taken over the area. The game features scripted events, cutscenes, and limited navigation between locations, often leading to puzzle sequences or action scenes involving shooting down planes or navigating flying vehicles.

Manual
Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is a sci-fi action-adventure game where you play as Zak, a hacker forced to undertake a dangerous mission for the Free World Alliance. You'll pilot a TF-22 aircraft through hostile sectors, engaging in aerial combat and infiltrating a mysterious complex to uncover its secrets. The game features customizable difficulty for both arcade combat and puzzle-solving elements.
Story
Setup
Setup your PlayStation game console according to the instructions in its Instruction Manual. Make sure the power is off before inserting or removing a compact disc.
Insert the CYBERIA disc and close the CD door. Insert game controllers and turn on the PlayStation. Follow on-screen instructions to start a game.
Entering Identification
If you receive a warning that your memory card is full, simply return to the Sony Memory Card Manager to copy or delete saved games.
To enter a name, move the hand across the keyboard with the control pad. Then press "X" or square to enter the letter. When done press enter on the keyboard.
If you wish to start the game over with the same "Identification name" but with different difficulty levels, you must enter the Sony Memory Card Manager and delete the file that contains the "Identification name" you want to use.
Background
Earth, 2027, five years after the global economic collapse. The fracturing of the world economy brings about swift changes in the global power structure. Now the Criminal Cartels struggle against the Free World Alliance (FWA) for control of the planet.
You control ZAK, an outlaw computer hacker with some very useful skills. Unfortunately, they do you little good while sitting in an FWA confinement cell, awaiting trial and sentencing for treason and espionage.
William Devlin, head of the FWA, gives you a choice. Work for the FWA on a covert mission, or sweat out whatever time you have left in your cell. Some choice...
The Mission
Devlin and the FWA have your mission planned. After being released from your confinement cell at the Pentagon, you are taken to a waiting hovercraft. From there you will be transported to the North Atlantic, where you will rendezvous with the Rig. The Rig is a mercenary operations base run by a man known only as Santos. The FWA has contracted with Santos to provide a jumping off point for your trip to the Cyberia Complex.
Once on the Rig, your orders are straightforward; meet with Santos and take possession of a waiting TF-22 aircraft. The TF-22 has its autopilot set for the optimum route to the Cyberia Complex, as well as an onboard tactical computer for combat.
Once the TF-22 delivers you to the Cyberia Complex your orders are to infiltrate the base and find out just what the hell is going on...

Difficulty
There are two difficulty parameters for a game of Cyberia. You can individually set the difficulty for the arcade portions of the game and the puzzle parts of the game (BLADES as shown below).
Airborne
In order to reach the Cyberia Complex, ZAK will have to cruise the skies in the TF-22 TransFighter.
The TF-22 is equipped with AutoNav, a computer controlled piloting and navigation system. However, this particular TF-22 has a weapons system glitch. You will have to fire the weapons manually.
The route to Cyberia will take you through seven hostile enemy sectors. Before entering a sector you will be shown a mission briefing, along with current tactical data essential to completing the mission.
Mission Objective
β’
SECTOR 35
β’
LONG RANGE SCAN DETECTS AN ENEMY HOVERCARRIER.
β’
DESTROY THE SHIP BEFORE IT CAN CALL REINFORCEMENTS.
Tactical
Each mission has a specific goal that must be accomplished, and the mission is not over until that goal is fulfilled. If you fail a mission, you will start over at the briefing screen.
You get a cockpit view of the approaching terrain and bogies. The computer will often verbally inform you when a target is acquired.
Zak's Background
17/05/27
Start from the beginning. That's the hard way, it's always easier to start from the end and back up, retreat, that's the easy way. But I don't do things the easy way, so I won't tell the story the easy way.
The beginning was about 2010, maybe earlier, I don't remember. I was born, and some people say they remember being born, but I don't. I was brought up, and I should remember more of that than I do now, never mind why, maybe I could explain, maybe later I will.
There were apartments, schools, houses, people who called themselves aunts and uncles, people who didn't. There were people who might have been a family. They're the hardest to remember.
Some years back, couldn't be too many, how old am I, after all? I'm probably still a "teen-ager," what they said in the old videocassettes. Anyway, my memory starts to burn about then, scooling through dark alleys into abandoned basements, I can remember from then on. Probably be better if I remembered the first part and forgot the later years. Not my choice, though.
None of it is anything anyone would be glad to remember. I've done old videocassettes, even seen some library books. I'd be very glad for some of those memories, the lemonade under the shade trees, the ruby sunsets: so glad to see red in the west like rubies and not like blood. Nothing's glad any more. But I need to get back to my story.
We were in the basements, crawling the wires, grabbing tubes and boxes, hooking wires to boards, boards to wires, things to things. Some of us knew some things, others knew other things. Things
How to Play
Project Description
Difficulty can be set to Easy, Medium, or Difficult. Easy arcade and easy puzzle cannot be chosen together, as this would make the game too easy.
Experienced gamers are encouraged to choose difficult levels. Medium and easy levels are designed for people new to video games. Difficulty cannot be changed once a game has started.
Movie Sequences
To skip movie sequences, press "start" to bring up the options menu.
β’
For the opening movie of Cyberia, select the "Load" option, then press "X" or square.
β’
For other movies, press "start" and select the "Password" option. Then enter the password of the next level.
Walking
Use the direction pad to control ZAK. Cyberia uses a nodal system for ZAK's movement. A node is a decision point where you can change direction or perform an action.
ZAK walks (and sometimes runs) from node to node. To move ZAK to the next node in the direction he is facing, press the up (forward) direction pad. Pressing left and right will rotate ZAK at a node if other paths are available.
Once you move ahead, ZAK will walk in that direction until he reaches the next node. While walking, you can turn around 180 degrees and head back to the starting node by pressing the down (backwards) arrow key.
ZAK will automatically stop at the next node unless you hold down the up direction pad, in which case he will continue to walk forward.
Walking Tip
Once you know your way around, you can walk and turn without interruption by keeping the up (forward) direction pad pressed and simultaneously holding down either the left or right direction pad. This only works if a pathway is available in the direction you wish to turn.
Node Exploration
Whenever ZAK stops at a node, it is highly recommended that you use your direction pad to discover all possible directions ZAK can move.
Taking Action
If an object or item of interest is directly in front of ZAK, press the up (forward) direction pad to explore or examine it further.
If a character confronts you with a verbal request, you have two options: comply with their request, or try to blast them with your arm-gun.
Combat
The "X" or square button fires your weapon. You can only fire your weapon if there is someone to fire at.
While in combat, aim your weapon by moving the direction pad toward your enemy and then pressing the "X" or square button to fire. In most cases, ZAK will be able to duck behind a wall or object to avoid being hit. ZAK cannot fire while ducking for cover.
BLADES
ZAK wears BLADES; Bi-optic Low Amplitude Displayed Energy System. These special cybershades allow ZAK to perform three distinct functions. The "triangle" button enters the scan selection mode. Use the control pad to highlight the desired scan and press the "X" or square button.
β’
InfraRed/Thermal Scan - Detects emissions in the InfraRed spectrum and traces of heat. This is a very sensitive scan, and the BLADES on-board computer will determine accurate levels for any InfraRed or Thermal energy found. This scan also causes minor heat flux in the scanned area.
β’
Magnetic Resonance Imaging - Allows you to "look through" an object and can reveal important clues about how an item works.
β’
BioScan - Scans the immediate area for traces of BioMass (organic matter). The BioScan has a very limited range.
Each time you use a BLADES function, it drains the built-in battery system. The system recharges quickly, so if you run out of power, walk around to allow it to recharge. To exit BLADES, press the "triangle" key.
Manipulation
In some instances, you will need to press buttons or perform similar tasks. It will be clear when this is the case. You will see ZAK's hand in front of you on the screen. Use the direction pad to position ZAK's hand, and press the "X" or square button to perform an action, such as pressing a button.
TransFighter Controls
Move the targeting crosshair with your control pad. Press L1 or L2 to switch between standard mode and aircraft mode.
β’
In aircraft mode (L2), pushing up on the direction pad will move the crosshair down.
β’
In standard mode (L1), pushing up on the direction pad will move the crosshair up.
β’
In both modes, left is left and right is right.
TransFighter Weapons
Fire the TransFighter's weapons by pressing the "X" or square button. The computer will box targets with horizontal brackets. It often takes more than one hit to destroy enemy targets.
Enemy targets are bracketed with yellow brackets. Some targets require multiple hits. When you score a hit on such a target, the yellow box will change to dark red. If you hit an enemy and the targeting box disappears, the enemy has sustained critical damage and is no longer a threat.
Blue Target Boxes
During some missions, there may be blue target boxes. Check the Mission Orders for specific information regarding blue target boxes.
Heads-Up Display (HUD)
Your HUD contains information about the status of your ship.
β’
The gauge at the top right displays your Shield Levels. This gauge fluctuates depending on the amount of enemy hits your ship takes.
β’
The gauge at the top left shows the energy available to your firing control system.
β’
Shield and Weapon Systems automatically recharge when not in use.
