The game has not aged particularly well, especially compared to Doom which came out the following year, but you do get to kill Hitler, which is a big plus. I would highly suggest downloading ECWolf and running the game through that rather than launching it through Steam for a much better and more polished experience (this is why my Steam playtime is only 13 minutes, that's how long it took me to give up on the Steam version (note that this suggestion is not advocating piracy as you need to have purchased the game on Steam or elsewhere to play ECWolf)) Overall (if playing through ECWolf) it's a solid 5 or 6/10 for people who like retro FPS, though I would only really recommend it to people who like Doom and want to see what its predecessor was like.

Whenever I try older games, I tend to bounce off them pretty quickly and not finish them. So even though I love Doom and Doom II I didn't expect to like Wolfenstein 3D. I expected I might play one episode then move on but I wound up finishing the entire base game and Spear of Destiny. I think Wolf3D holds up really well and I thought it was a ton of fun. Please note that I'd recommend downloading the fan made mod/launcher EC Wolf which enables the map viewer and gives you the option of using a controller.

First game I ever played, I remember playing the first levels over and over again when i was 6. Controls are a bit clunky, but its still addictive to this day. So many good memories...

Wolfenstein 3D. A great game with a huge legacy. I'm not going into that. This will just be a simple review of the game itself. Firstly, get a sourceport. It helps the playability of the game a lot. It adds true 3D graphics, better mouse controls, strafing and an automap. Ok, now for the review. Wolfenstein 3D is simple. Really simple. You have 4 weapons, about 7 enemies total and six bosses. That is used over 60 levels in maze like levels for you to solve and find the exit in. That's it. The first three episodes are the best. The levels aren't too mazey and the enemies are placed in a more balanced way. The last 3 episodes are much more maze like. Each episode starts you off with a knife and pistol. You get ammo and health from pickups. You can get n machinegun and a chaingun. Each weapons is a flat upgrade over the previous one. You never have a reason to go back. Sometimes doors are lockd and requires keycards. And that's pretty much the game. Get weapons and ammo, go though mazey levels, get keycards, shoot Nazi's and get to the boss level. It's very basic and repetitive but I love it. It's so much fun. I'd recommend it.

My typical Wolfenstein 3D experience: 1. Start level. 2. Run around, killing any enemies I find. 3. Get lost. 4. Start wall-hugging and mashing 'E' to find any hidden walls. 5. Somehow get even more lost. 6. Finally find path to exit. 7. Get shot and killed by off-screen enemy. 8. Cry.
