Not Quite

Some improvement in graphics, no fog, as others mentioned, but the difficulty setting seems broken and set to hard or worse. Less ammo and map-changes, minor but iconic to the original game: sadly miss the hidden keys on lofts that were not difficult that the original included. Polished but unbalanced, and with the infamous checkpoint save system made for too hard a ride. I reinstalled the original after 20 years, so thanks to GOG for only the reminder. Lol. 3 stars otherwise, and maybe the difficulty is a glitch others do not mind or will not effect their system. Buy only on sale too, the price is too high even with no problem.

Fun romp

Turok is from a time when expectations towards an FPS were different. You play as Turok, a guy we know nothing about, aside from his uncanny ability to run at ludicrous speeds, and even faster when going diagonally. The only line ever uttered by the protagonist is "I AM TUROK!," and the game never goes beyond this state of mind. Not even an attempt at providing a story or purpose for what you're doing is made, and frankly, this is not to the game's detriment. Turok scores where it really matters: the levels are vast and intricate, enemies plentiful, and the weapon roster is extensive to where you'll quickly run out of keys on your keyboard. Turok uses a hub-based level system, meaning you get to to travel to each level from a central hub, and in order to unlock new ones you need to collect keys. These are sometimes more and sometimes less well hidden, though the automap is quite helpful in finding one's way through the levels. Aside from shooting humaoids, dinosaurs, and alien creatures, one also gets to do a decent bit of platforming, which can be nerve-recking at times, albeit in a good way, as the game uses a checkpoint/save station system. In terms of difficulty, the game is somewhat unbalanced. Normal can be beaten without any effort, to where losing health becomes harder than filling it up again. Hard on the other hand quickly becomes stressful, since several hitscan enemies can empty one's health bar in seconds, and once you run out of lives it's game over, not to mention that enemies respawn quickly while ammo does not. In addition, some mechanics such as maximum health increases are not present on hard difficulty at all, making things even trickier. Thankfully, the game allows changing the difficulty at any time, so one can start on hard and switch to normal during the tougher parts no problem. The remaster by Nightdive is excellent as always. The original aesthetic is preserved, and the game runs great throughout. All in all, an easy recommendation.

The classic live again!

Loved playing on N64 and still holds true today. Controls feel good and works on start with no configure with xbox controllers. Default controllers are great too

Good game, like the original

Couple differences between the n64 and PC; no toggle run/walk and some level design differences; otherwise plays as well as I remember.

A classic collectathon shooter

I'm glad Nightdive remastered this old gem of a game from the N64 era. As a kid, I tried (and failed) to play this game on the N64, but found it to be too difficult, given the horrendously short draw distance and awful control scheme. Both of those things have now been fixed in this remaster, and the game is now much more accessible. I had a lot of fun! The levels are huge and filled with cool things to find. My only complaint is that the enemies respawn too quickly. Especially on the later levels, you will often find yourself just running past enemies to save on ammo (which is a limited resource), since they're just going to respawn anyways. As a result, you rarely feel safe enough to do a lot of thorough exploration. And given how obscure some of the secrets are, you will definitely need a guide if you are trying to 100% everything. But aside from that, I wouldn't sleep on this game if you're into old school shooters- the music, the level design, the weapons, the bosses, and the whole overall presentation is excellent and definitely worth playing!
