This game is a lots of fun!

Before we start, I'm playing this game with version 4.3.1 of SWP, ported on mac with a simple wineskin port. Why I use SWP and I don't use dosbox? because with that source port is easier to use the mouse on the y-axis. that said, I love this game. I'm not a nostalgic, I got it for free today and I cannot stop playing this great game. there are lots of weapon, lots of secrets, lots of nude anime girls (LOL), lots of monsters, and Lo Wang is a badass. it is a difficult game, you need to save and load often, and you need to use that key in the right door. But once you have done it one time is really easy to do it again. The level design is awesome, I love it. the 2.5D graphics is not that bad, there is some style in this game, I would love to see some new games made with that technique. Just get it and try, right now is free but this game was already free on steam (and this classic version is also drm-free on steam).

Lo Wang there, Lo Wang here, Lo Wang GOG

You, as a gamer that doesn't shy away from old games and also a Steam user, I had so much Wang in my life that I don't feel like talking about all the Wangs that I have. It's kinda a Duke Nukem 3D like game, albeit with worse balanced but still rewarding. When you figure out that you should lob grenades around corner and use inventory-grenades for ambushes, that is. Otherwise, higher hitscan rate than true old-school shooter should have. Well, Doom era ones. But eh, here is a GOG Wang. It's a free Lo Wang, so it's a fine Wang. Shadow Warrior Classic Complete is indeed Complete as it comes with two free expansions packs already packed in. If you fiddle with settings you should have it up and running in comfortable modern controls way, albeit you have to tolerate lower mouse sensetivity for vertical than horizontal. And it's all good, but first, you have to manually use DOSBOX to setup.exe the controls for Shadow Warrior and Watson Destruction. Twin Dragon expansion uses it's own setup.exe that GOG actually has a link to it in "other" category, but not for others. Eh. Oh, and for some reason everytime in Twin Dragon you have to turn on music through in-game options. Wacky. Overall, you probably should go for Redux due to small differences but these differences are so small that actually maybe you should stick with this free deal instead. Plus, Redux has no multiplayer while it looks like this one does have it. Maybe sorta have it. Not sure if it works or if it's stable. But yea. Too much Lo Wang for me.

Worst Port Ever

This game has a lot of goddamn problems! Just get it as a collection, because this version got a defected control issues. You cannot use WASD or any thing because f@#k all! Just buy the REDUX or wait until it's free and not like this one.

Can't customize controls

The game is great with allof of potential and I really want to like it. It seems fun, the music is great and Lo Wang is cool but I cannot get over the inability to customize the controls. They are what they are and there's no changing them. I am used to a certain layout of my controls so this just doen't work for me.
