Call of Duty

Overview
Call of Duty for the Nokia N-Gage follows a similar story and mission path as the original Call of Duty for PC and Mac, but in a drastically reduced form. What levels have been ported over have been streamlined to force more straight-forward progression and to compensate for the limited field of view.
The game has generated notoriety for its technical shortcomings, such as its single digit framerate, three-frame reload animations, tight field of view, low draw distance and AI quirks in addition to interface oddities leading some reviewers to speculate that the game wasn’t completely finished prior to shipping.
Missions
11 missions comprise the single player campaign and are split across three different countries (USA, Great Brittan and the Soviet Union). Additionally, there is one secret level only obtainable via the use of the level select code.
