What players say

Players describe it as a competent Wolfenstein 3D clone with some improvements like a minimap, but note it feels dated and has tanky controls that only allow horizontal aiming. Many recommend using a source port for quality-of-life enhancements. Reviews highlight an obsession with secrets, as the game hides them several layers deep.
