How it feels

Blasting through pixelated mutant hordes in a fast-paced retro shooter with a sci-fi B-movie feel.

What players say

Players see this as a short expansion rather than a full sequel, taking around 90 minutes. The map now appears on the HUD with a zoom that reveals secrets, which some find too easy. It still runs on the Wolfenstein 3D engine and players agree it cannot match Doom.
