Olympics 2012 - Terror Descends

A bus carrying athletes from many countries is hijacked by a terrorist cell. The athletes are locked up at the terrorist's base compound, and held pending the release of one of their own, held by the US.

The negotiations are at a standstill, and the terrorists begin killing the athletes one by one.

They decide they can't wait around for a rescue, and break out. They must escape from the compound alive. Players will control groups of four athletes, and will be able to cycle through the characters at will.

Drawing from their diverse physical skills they must progress through the high security base. They must avoid detection, solve environment puzzles, kill the enemy and fight to survive.Athletes could include those with skill sets in Swimming, Fencing, Shooting, Boxing, Gymnastics, Judo, Weight Lifting, and Table Tennis.

The Table Tennis athlete is present largely for comic relief, and will seem useless, until just the right time when only his skills can save the team.

(I was gonna call it Terror Rising, but that sounds too much like Terrorizing... Unless that seems a witty play on words?)

This could make a good action movie too.
