- ―Map biography
Asylum is the second (chronologically the third) map of The Search saga. It takes place at the Zürich Asylum in Zürich, Switzerland.
Overview[]
Asylum is a small map, taking place in the yard around the asylum. Much of the yard is littered with Unit 14 equipment and utilities, with the site being previously owned by Unit 14. All of the gates leading to the main streets around the asylum are completely blocked off, trapping the player in the asylum grounds during normal gameplay.
Story[]
Arriving at the Zürich Asylum with suspicions of Unit 14 activity, the four discover the site has been completely overrun by the undead, with no Unit 14 soldiers or scientists to be seen. As soon as they drop into the courtyard, they alert several zombified scientists, who alert more zombies before being shot in the head by Doc. As the undead begin to break into the asylum grounds, the four are forced to defend themselves once again. During their fight with the undead, they discover the audio logs of a Unit 14 scientist, who in one of his radios cryptically states that "the cycle must continue at all costs". He also states that if the asylum was to be overrun, two of the test subjects recently captured would be brought to the secondary location while the other two were sent to a Unit 14 prison located in the countryside of Switzerland. After locating a document written by a Unit 14 scientist to the countryside prison, the four manage to identify the prison's exact coordinates in Seealpsee, Switzerland. Taking a chopper left behind by Unit 14, the four head for the prison to find the two test subjects.
