With few he can trust, Tex must try and unravel the mystery surrounding Malloy, and along the way he'll learn the devastating truth behind the greatest government conspiracy of all time collecting puzzle boxes along the way.В The game has a large cast of characters ranging from the deranged to deadly. Tex quickly discovers that Fitzpatrick is not the only one who is looking for Malloy and finds himself dragged into a dangerous situation. Though Tex lives in what is considered a Mutant area of town, he himself is a 'Norm'.In The Pandora Directive, Tex Murphy ( Chris Jones) is hired by Gordon Fitzpatrick ( Kevin McCarthy) to find his friend, Thomas Malloy ( John Agar). Instead of sleeping at night, and being awake in the day, humans have become nocturnal, in a manner of speaking. The events of WWIII still left the planet with no ozone layer, and to protect their citizens many countries adopted a time reversal. Tex still lives on Chandler Ave., which recently underwent a city-funded cleanup. The end to the Crusade for Genetic Purity was a turning point in the relations between Mutants and 'Norms'. After the events of Under a Killing Moon, tensions between the two groups have begun to diminish.

WWIII also left another mark on the world: the formation of two classes of citizens. After the devastating events of WWIII, many major cities have been rebuilt (as is the case with New San Francisco), though certain areas still remain as they were before the war (as in Old San Francisco). Like all Tex Murphy games, The Pandora Directive takes place in post- World War III San Francisco in April 2043.
