Classic gem with some flaws
An interesting hybrid of the FPS genre with exploration/metroidvania elements. The weapon power idea is just bad though. The game is not at all difficult, though after playing through Heretic on black plague, I'm kinda numb to most things. The only truly aggravating parts were two stupid laser trap sequences in the later game where the developers leaned hard into your character being the size of an inflated hot air balloon, so guessing whether your hit box is going to clip into one of the instant-death lasers was a constant source of frustration. That having been said, there's a fair amount of opportunity for cheesing fights, sequence-breaking and other fun stuff that lets you dominate the enemies and levels in the game. Always keep some grenade weapon power handy for grenade-boosting to normally inaccessible areas :P

The Powerslave you're looking for
Having played the original DOS/PC version, Powerslave EX (by Kaiser, a prototype of Powerslave using KEX), and some GZDoom mods, this is the superior version to play. If you haven't played the PC port (which I rate 4/5 stars), do it first, and then play the remaster from Nightdive. Whereas the PC port feels like an Egyptian reskin of a Doom/Duke Nukem run-and-gun clone, and a good one at that, the PS1/Saturn gives the player some abilities (jumping higher, floating in the air, etc.) that fit right into the supernatural theme of this game. Instead of the more linear levels of the PC version, these levels have obstacles that can only be overcome with the abilities mentioned above, Metroidvania style, which means you'll replay some levels again (the good news: the levels are short). This Nightdive remaster is very balanced: it looks like you're playing a '90s game, but with higher resolution, 120fps, better lighting, and more advanced options for you to tinker with (even CRT emulation). Feels smooth, plays smoothly, and isn't constantly reminding you that this is a sHinY rEmAstEr. Well done, Nightdive!

A Neat Classic, No Longer Lost To Time
I heard about this a while back in a YT video, but it was exclusive to the Saturn - a console I never owned - so I thought it was neat, but that was about it. Fast forward a few years later and NightDive drops "PowerSlave Exhumed" - a remaster of the classic game for modern platforms. Now that I've had a chance to play through it (even went far enough to get the good ending), I can say that it was worth experiencing. It's not without some issues - navigation can be difficult at times, and a few of the hidden items needed to get the good ending would have been very hard for me to find without relying on a guide - but overall it plays very well. The TLDR description of "It's Metroid Prime, but if it were made 5 years earlier on the Build Engine" is pretty accurate. You run through levels shooting enemies and grabbing keys to open doors like in lots of other FPS games from that era - but then you also gain new traversal abilities over time that let you explore new stages and previously inaccessible parts of old ones in order to find new exits and goodies. Overall, I'd say it's worth a try if it looks interesting to you.

One of My Best Boomer Shooter Game
I never played at this game before, but after I bought this and installed the game. I was surprise. The game got me hooked on many hours. And I spent very well to kill enemies inspired Egyptian Mythology. Especially I liked shooted with M60 to Egyptian fly. Bosses in this game was very easy to kill and even I played at Pharaoh difficult. I didn't have fun to defeat them. Egyptian atmosphere in game made I wasn't bored during overcoming another maps in game.
