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.

An N64 Acclaim Gem

Turok: Dinosaur Hunter is a fantastic shooter. It's not particularly deep, but it's a solid entertaining time, and you can really see how the FPS genre was inspired by this game. This PC port is comparable to the N64 version, but with cleaner graphics, and a bit smoother. The array of weapons is good, the soundtrack fast-paced and well-suited, the enemies are designed well, including the bosses. As for some negatives, some of the levels can get a little to labyrinthine for their own good (which can also make it hard to find the keys as well as hinder navigation), and a couple are probably a bit too similar, with there being a heavier theme on natural and tribal settings than more overtly fantastical sci-fi, but nothing too. I kinda wish there was more focus on the story, as the backstory and universe is really interesting, but it's fine without that. Finally, the sound effect when you collect health and triangles can get annoying real fast. To finish, I highly recommend this game! If you're a fan of shooters, this'll keep you entertained for days, and I can guarantee you'll probably only yell at your computer a little. ;) Also, $20 dollars is hardly a steep price. I think it's a perfectly reasonably one.

Dated but Enjoyable

The graphics didn't age well, but the gameplay and even the sound did. The ambiance is enjoyable, the levels are challenging, and the design is excellent. The controls are a little wonky, but once you get used to them it works well.

Fun Classic FPS Reborn

I distinctly remember playing this on Nintendo 64 and while it was fun, I could never beat it with a 64 controller. It then came as a complete surprise hearing about this game being re-released back in 2015. And now being able to play it again with updated controls definitely makes for a fun, but brief run-and-gun shooter. The combination of level-exploring with key and weapon-hunting still feels like a joy to play. The music is also pleasing to listen to, with funky weird beats while circle-strafing Velociraptors! It never gets old. Is it worth it for the price? In my humble opinion, yes - if you intend to play it more than once. All in all, one play-through took me about 8 hours total. What's the game about? - Being a Badass Kiowa-Apache on a super sweet quest involving shooting Dinosaurs, Ancient Warriors, and Robots! - Shooting Dinosaurs that SHOOT back! - Ninja Circle-Strafing a Raptor with a Knife! - Platforming levels that are so vertical that your fear of heights may get triggered! - Intense Boss Fights! A T-Rex shoots lasers out of its EYES dude! - Music worth jamming to man. - Plenty of secrets to find. The game's plot is: You are Tal'Set (a descendant of Pal'Seg'Na'Saquin) on a quest in the Lost Lands to defeat the Evil Overlord known as the Campaigner, whom seeks to find an ancient alien weapon that could forever destroy the barriers that separate realities throughout the Universe.
