First-Person Shooter in Cappadocia Settings


I thought it might be a cool idea to use the underground or cave cities in Cappadocia as the backdrop for a First-Person-Shooter.

It's a weird atmosphere there... kilometers of quite narrow tunnels, then suddenly small chambers, hidden doors... and at some point you are back overground. I think with a good scenario it would make an excellent game. Actually when looking deeper into the historical background of the cave cities, one can find interesting materials for a good scenario. According to one story, these cave cities have been built for resistance again alien invaders. Another, more realistic story claims that these cities were build by Christians as a place to hide from the Roman administration. Whatever, it could be a setting for a cool Sci-Fi story or a Horror/Mystery game a la Silent Hill. Or maybe a medieval detective story like Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose.
