A must have for old FPS fans.

This is a personal favorite of mine from when I was a kid or a teenager or whatever I was when it first came out. Come to think of it I may still have the original disc laying around somewhere. Younger people might be turned off by it, but I think it still holds up quite nicely. Fun, challenging, and fairly lengthy.

never heard of it but surprisingly good

Eradicator is an obscure FPS of the 90' era that offers gameplay (and gunplay) similar to its big names of the same genre, but with interesting implemented puzzles, objectives and creative gameplay. on top of that, the game offers probably the most unique variety of guns both in function and feelings, and it offers theme in abundance (i think it is safe to say that Eradicator it's the fps that offers the most numerous numbers of guns of all time? I played almost all of the doom-like( 90' fps) and fps in general, and I have never see such abundance). In addition, it also offers 3 different characters with different starting levels, and also said characters have different guns! ( Gun-inception!) Downsides? the game graphics are really old (actually, it goes beyond outdated), final cutscene needs working with the dos box in order to work and the levels are simply too dark in general. Still, completely worth it since it offers some very unique gameplay and approach to this genre.

Not worth your time

Ok first, let me start with graphics. The game is horrendous. Probably one of the worst looking games i've ever played. Wolf3D is a visual masterpiece compared to that pile of rotting pixels. Controls work well enough but i feel the characters move too fast making it a bit weird. You move like you're on ice. Level design is all over the place... Overall, a very poor experience and i wouldn't recommend playing this unless you're a die hard fan of oldschool FPS starving for more.
