The goal of this game is to find a file which is said to hold the cure to the virus.
Later in the game you are chasing this guy named Rais, the bad character of the story. He has the file you are trying to get so you have to find him at the top of his tower before he gets evacuated by the GRE. If you are afraid of heights, this mission can be nearly impossible. Since Dying Light is based around parkour, you actually have to scale the tower while the inside of the building is

When I was climbing the tower, I was afraid I was going to fall off and fail the mission, having to restart all the way back at the beginning.
This fear almost stopped be from completing this mission because I found it nearly impossible to climb this tower. You had to find the smallest ledges to grab onto and if you were off by an inch, you died. You could hear all of the zombies groaning inside the massive structure which was very distracting, along with Rais insulting you on the radio and playing music he said was created by, “His slaves”. The fear I had for climbing that tower, nearly stopped me from finishing the mission. But after about 1 hour of non-stop trying, I finally made the climb and got the package.

This is highlighted through the film noir scenes when dramatic high contrast was achieved by using two extremes of lighting, a lack of light and a heavy amount of light. This was especially shown in the opening interrogation scene. During the scene the light in the room was the only light source present and everything else was in complete darkness.

    Aurora borealis or northern lights form when charged particles emitted from the sun during a solar flare travel with solar wind and penetrate the earths magnetic shield and collide with atoms and molecules in our atmosphere. The collusions result in the production of photons which light up the sky. Collisions with oxygen will produce a green aurora. The northern lights are visible from dusk until dawn as long as it is dark and in this case we see a photograph taken by a citizen in Iceland. Scientist Thomas Stevenson explains that the shape of the northern lights depend on where in the magnetosphere the electrons (charged particle) come from and what causes them to precipitate into the atmosphere.…
