thanks for your magazine search, as always pix 🙂
In relation to the magazines, they ran a lot of ads to explain what mdk meant, such as ‘mounties demand kangar8oa’, if someone has a few of these, it’s worth showing how much this was advertised.
Interesting, the articles mention not being able to save until the end of the level, but the gog version I’m playing lets you save any time. Was this feature added while the game was still contemporary, or is it just for the gog release?
This was later patched in ‘F2 to save’, by itself and in all the 3D patches, I think.

My big box special edition also has the ‘F2 to save’ on DOS. So it was definitely added at some point to the release version.
I recall a cameo of the game in an X-Files episode too.
Anyways, much thanks for everyone mentioning F2 to save. I’ll have to try that next time.
According to this page, the X-Files episode in question:

Hey gang (yes, I’m still here – just being a massive lurker). I don’t have a proper scanner, nor am I particularly good at HTML, but I have uploaded some pretty horrible scans from PC Gamer UK March 1997 onto Mastodon (you will probably need to open the images full screen for them to be legible).

I think calling this review “mildly hyperbolic” is being generous (“a work of genius”?), but I’ve definitely had some amount of fun revisiting this one.
