STAR WARS™ Dark Forces (Classic, 1995)

If you like DOOM and you like Star Wars, you'll like this game. I still haven't beaten it, but it's fun to break out and play sometimes. It is built on the DOOM engine, which some people love and others hate, but at least you know exactly the sorts of graphics and maps you will get.

No, I can't pretend it has aged all that gracefully, and the lives system (instead of in-level saves) may not be for everyone. That said, blasting Imperials is still a hoot. Star Wars fans may love their light sabers (maybe a little too much so), but for me running and gunning in this and Jedi Outcast is some of the most fun I've had in this gaming franchise. :)

best fps ever love this game since 1993

The game seems fun but it is almost impossible to play due to fps slowdown. This is a problem with the way GOG 's dosbox. There are ways around it just know that you will have to put work in before you are able to play this game properly.

A package of a mere fourteen levels, but each one possesses a depth and uniqueness of its own. My only real gripe with this title is some of its odd level design, but that's to be expected from Raven Software. Some switches and paths needed to progress are in the most peculiar of places, and the means to get through them can be rather perplexing. It's like a 3D arcade game in some aspects. At times, I couldn't tell if I was supposed to be immersed or not.
