What is Alias Underground?

ABC Television released this promotional episodic videogame to hype the TV show starring Jennifer Garner as an undercover CIA spy named Sydney Bristow. The training mission plus 9 more episodes were available for download on ABC's website initially prior to and during the second season of the show. It is a 3D third-person stealth/action game and episodes came out on a monthly basis between September 2002 and June 2003.

From both 3rd or 1st-person perspective, Sydney can run, jump, duck, climb, and interact with objects. When encountering a bad guy, she can punch, kick, or shoot if she gets hold of a gun which will allow you to zoom in when in first-person mode. Sydney must use various disguises and act covertly, so as not to blow her cover, while infiltrating various areas.
