How it feels

A frantic, arcade-style shooter with absurd weaponry and cartoonish violence, moving at breakneck speed.

What players say

Players are split on this classic remaster: some love its insane traps and dungeon-like levels, while others find the key-hunting and hit-scan enemies exhausting. Many note it pushes the Wolfenstein engine to its limits, but the repetitive design and lack of co-op hold it back.
