MDK

I played a demo of this when I was ten years old, and I remember thinking it was great. When I saw it on GoG, I bought it right away, thinking five dollars would at least be worth the nostalgia it would provide. Turns out the game doesn't really change after the first half-hour on display in the demo. I probably could've lived with the dated control scheme. Even the rather mindless combat (hold down shoot and zigzag) and repetitive gameplay would've been tolerable. But in a game with levels that last from half an hour to an hour, a complete lack of checkpoints or any kind of intra-level save system is tantamount to a mortal sin. All these factors combine to make MDK an exercise in frustration. The game's aesthetics are certainly top-notch, and it's sense of humour is a nice addition, though it's never laugh-out-loud funny. But all that can be gleaned from watching someone else suffer through the game on Youtube. I'm told it's short, only six levels long. I only made it through four before kicking it off my hard drive.

I use to have this game on Playstation and played it multiple times, then a friend from highschool sold me his copy of MDK for PC which I still have but cant run on any modern PC then later bought it on Steam but then it was glitchy and unplayable on modern PC so finally i bought it on GOG and it works perfectly fine. No tricks of making it run on a fake video card from 3DFX just instals and it plays. Thanks GOG for living my childhood games and Theres still Giants Citizen of Kabuto which I have a physical copy but I am going to rebuy it on GOG so it can be working perfectly like this game.

Still, remember that this game had a great zoom and you could shoot limbs. Great fun, will revisit.

Funny stroy with fantasy world,Level design is the most goodness of this game, puzzle is interesting and challenging.Hope this series will continue.

Used to play this bad boy on my 166MHZ monster of a machine. Those were the days with the internet just coming out. I think I got this bundled with the Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro Joystick or with some sort of gateway 2000 or Dell bundle. anyways i spent countless hours playing the game and it was pretty fun and had a lot of cool mechanics in it, like gliding. The game style is very unique and different than most games, it also featured many comedic scenes, even the basic enemies reminded me a lot of the grunts in the Halo series that came much later. I really hope some sort of remake or remastered version comes out!
