I can’t remember when I first played this one, but I’m fairly sure it was the DOS version sometime in the 1990s. When I played it in 2017 I was somehow already familiar with it so I must have already played it!
I quite enjoyed it the last time I played it. The locations are nice, the atmosphere is OK but the story is fairly trite and the puzzles are not great, with too many deaths. For a few years I actually had this game confused with Delphine Software’s Future Wars – which is absolutely a game that should be covered – as they share some graphical similarities.
I’d like to suggest MDK – a graphically and musically very impressive ‘third person shooter’ (although I hate that term!) by Shiny Entertainment from 1997. I have very fond memories of this one. If you haven’t tried it you should – it was pretty unique at the time and still looks and plays great today.
This is the only boxed DOS game I still own, with both 3.5 and 5.25 inch floppies included. I bought it sometime in the early 1990s and played it in on the PC in my dad’s office! I would definitely like to go through it again.
