In Cold Blood is set in a fictional state called Volgia, which is under control of General Nagarov. The player takes on the role of John Cord, an MI6 agent sent to investigate. His mission quickly becomes complicated and he soon finds himself entangled in a complex web of intrigue.
In Cold Blood combines elements of adventure, stealth, and shooting game genres. Players progress by collecting items, talking to characters, and solving puzzles. Some conversations feature multiple-choice options, while others require the player to use stealth or violence to overcome obstacles. Combat is straightforward, involving melee punches or shooting.

How to Play
SETTING UP
1. Set up your PlayStation game console according to its Instruction Manual. Ensure the power is off before inserting or removing a compact disc.
2. Insert the IN COLD BLOOD disc and close the Disc Cover.
3. Insert game controllers and turn on the PlayStation game console.
4. Follow on-screen instructions to start a game.
CHANGING DISCS
At the end of disc 1, a screen will appear instructing you to insert disc 2. WITHOUT turning the console OFF, open the disc cover and replace the disc currently in use with the next disc. Close the disc cover and continue on your journey.
OBJECTIVES
IN COLD BLOOD is an adventure set in the memory of MI6 agent John Cord. Captured and tortured by enemy agents, he is weak and fighting for his sanity. All he knows for sure is that he was betrayed - if only he could remember by whom or why.
Your adventure begins as Cord tries to piece together the fragments of his memory. You must reconstruct the events that led to Cord's capture, and use the information to make sense of his current situation as he languishes in a cell somewhere behind enemy lines.
To help Cord, you'll have to start acting like an MI6 agent; think like one, fight like one; and above all, survive. Use stealth wherever possible to avoid raising the alarm. You're no use to us dead.
EXPLORATION
Use the button to explore the environment. Useful items might be concealed inside crates, on shelves or obscured in some way.
Cord can also explore the bodies of terminated enemies. Simply hold down the button to make him crouch, then press the button to search.
INVENTORY
•
BUTTON INVENTORY: Open/Close the inventory in the bottom left corner of the screen.
•
Exit menus.
PAUSE
•
START BUTTON PAUSE: Pauses the game and opens up the PAUSE menu.
MOVEMENT AND STEALTH
Cord has three ways of moving around: his usual walk, which gives him time to respond to threats; running, which is swift but noisy; crouching, which is slow but stealthy. Evaluate the situation and choose the most appropriate.
•
BUTTON SIDE STEP: Pressing the directional buttons will cause Cord to side step.
•
BUTTON CROUCH: Pressing the direction buttons will cause Cord to creep around. This is useful when sneaking up on Guards.
•
BUTTON RUN: Pressing the directional buttons will steer Cord as he runs.
COMBAT
Cord should try to avoid combat wherever possible; he may be a trained agent but he isn't bullet-proof and he is only one man. Sometimes, however, it is unavoidable.
His two methods of dealing with threats are silent, short-ranged unarmed combat attacks and using his sidearm where stealth isn't important or is not appropriate. Deliver a knock-out martial arts blow by hitting the attack button; use the gun by first pressing and keeping down the arming button, then hitting the attack button.
Cord's gun has limited ammunition so be careful and always remember to check guards' bodies for reloads and medical boost packs. Provided he has additional clips, Cord will automatically reload his gun when he runs out of bullets.
Reloading takes time and you might consider that it is better to reload from the inventory by selecting the clip icon and pressing the button, although this wastes any bullets in the current cartridge. Note that Cord can carry a maximum of five clips and will not be able to take more from dead guards. In this case it is worth considering returning to the guard when ammunition runs low later in the mission.
•
BUTTON ATTACK:
•
If pressing the button, Cord will fire his gun, if enough ammo is available.
•
If not, pressing the button, Cord will punch.
•
RT BUTTON ARM / DISARM:
•
Pressing the button will make Cord take out his weapon; releasing the button, Cord will replace his weapon.
ARMED MODE DISPLAY
While in armed mode, the following is displayed:
•
Health bar: This shows how much damage Cord has sustained. Health can be restored by using a medical boost pack. This is done by selecting the boost pack in the inventory and pressing the button.
•
Number of bullets in the gun. Each time a clip is changed, nine bullets are loaded into the breach.
•
Number of spare clips. Each clip holds nine bullets.
If Cord is speaking to someone and is not getting the desired answer he can threaten them by talking to them while armed. Just remember not to fire, or getting an answer may be difficult... impossible, even.
THE REMORA
The REMORA is Cord's wrist-mounted communications and data storage device.
•
BUTTON: Press the button to activate the REMORA device. The default display is the motion scanner. This displays the area around Cord specifically tracking humans and robots.
MOTION SCANNER DETECTIONS
The motion scanner detects:
•
People displayed in blue (dark blue when dead).
•
Robots displayed in orange (dark orange when destroyed).
•
Recharge points displayed in dark green (light green when EMP mine inserted).
•
Doors displayed in orange.
REMORA OPTIONS
Once the REMORA is active, the following options can be selected by pressing the button:
•
Infra Red link: This prompts the REMORA to search for a computer with an IR device with which to interface. If a computer is in range then it will be interrogated by the REMORA and the available options displayed. If Cord interacts with a computer console then the IR link will be automatically triggered.
