The game is linear/choice based..

You play as the handsome, fit, and capable Jensen Wenchester, a former Captain in Team 5 Infiltration Unit, Army Rangers, years ago, but now the successful owner of his own business, Wenchester Security Company. You have several homes, a successful company, and amazing colleagues, and that seemed like enough. But there's something happening and life is about to get complicated, and somehow it all ties back to the events forgotten in the past. Somehow you are going to need to uncover things so buried you didn't even know you'd forgotten them. Things are going to be exciting as you begin Retrieving The Past.​
