Runs on Bazzite Linux - to get it running you have to use Proton version 5.13-6 , switch to OpenGL, follow this guide https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3048360046 to enable DirectMusic (via the Protontricks GUI app), fix permissions in order to use protontricks, run the command "protontricks 6900 directmusic" in the terminal and then ingame go to keyboard&mouse config and select "use default WSAD".

This is a childhood nostalgia. I first played this game at my 8th grade at a friend's PC. It still holds as a good game, though some game mechanics and game-play has not stood the test of time. Still pretty enjoyable, that is if you know how to play Hitman Games. The only problem with this game is that, it has some issues related to it's running on modern PCs. I recommend the fix given below to anyone who wants to buy and play this game nowadays: Paste this in the "Hitman.ini" file located inside the main game folder. Include Setup\Locale.zip //DrawDll Render3DFX.dll DrawDll RenderOpenGL.dll //DrawDll RenderOpenGL.dll SoundDll Sound.dll ScriptDll GSC.dll LocaleDLL Locale.dll Resolution 1024x768 ColorDepth 32 Anisotropy 2 AntiAlias DisableLight ShadowDetail 2 TextureResolution 0 StartUpperPos 0,0 After this the game is fairly playable. Just add some resolution fixes if you want to change the resolution to your own desired one. If anyone wants me to rate it. I would rate it a 7.5 out of 10. Hope this helps. Thank You.

The very first in the long line of Boeing: Independent Contractor games. Some people are starting to speak up, you know what to do.

Kiddos these days and normies will never understand how groundbreaking this game was for its time when there was no other game where you could play as a hitman accomplishing missions in all the different ways you can imagine, especially for us in eastern european countries where most people grew up with a low budget ATi card and had to lower all settings to get a passable 20-25 FPS in most games we played, it is as hardcore as any other game from that time, either git gud or play something else, leave the classics to us old farts instead if you can't handle it, the XP era will forever be in my heart <3
