The REAL Right Stuff.

***First off - Highly Recommended *** For just £4 currently you can own and play Return to Castle Wolfenstein Where as the latest Wolfenstein has stunning graphics for it's time, they lent heavily upon a more technologically advanced vision of the Nazi war machine, with Robots and Cyborg Super Soldiers Add in imposing concrete structures containing mysterious research labs and atrocities, along with gothic castles dawbed in Teutonic symbology and Swastika faced banners hanging. You have the reciepe for the nightmare B.J and his Squad face. The atmosphere of Return to Caste Wolfenstein initially feels a more tradional WW2 setting. As you lose yourself into the story and setting, you are greeted by a flashback occurring long before events of the current day, what implications could those events have on this time ? The scene is further revealed as you watch a meeting within the wood panelled offices of the OSA discussing the current situation. The quest begins. Here you are in an Old school FPS Adventure, you won't find any markers showing you where to head next, no cut scenes introducing a new threat, no red markers above enemies heads magically showing positions, just you and your wits. The German forces are dressed initially in their traditional WW2 uniforms and equiped with weapons for the time, you could be in Where Eagles Dare. You can take on the task utilising stealth, preventing soldiers from hitting the regularly placed alarm boxes on the walls, which call in back up. What is cool is, whilst lurking in the shadows you can overhear guards holding conversations discussing rumours and strange events occurring at other parts of the castle and down in the village. I would love to continue but your better off just playing this classic. Yes there's superbases and the hightech mixed with the unholy. Yes you will recognise characters, names and enemies . This game really holds up magnificently. At £4 too

Great game with some annoyances

Ever since I played Wolfenstein: The New Order, I started to play other installments in the franchise, like The Old Blood and The New Colossus. But recently, I finished beating Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Coming from someone that has never played this game before, I enjoyed it despite some flaws. What I liked about this game was that the story did keep me interested in seeing what would happen, since the other installments have been known for Nazis doing all kinds of crazy stuff to win the war via dark magic or robotic soldiers. The gameplay was also good, and I enjoyed using the weapons used in the game, including the one where you shoot electricity to fry your enemies. It's also pretty cool coming across some secret areas and discovering hidden treasure. While the character models do look weird, they're not too awful, and the animation for them, when they move around, is good. Also, I love how diverse the levels would be because you'll end up in areas ranging from a castle to a temple. One more thing that did annoy me about this installment of the Wolfenstein franchise and I know this will sound more like a nitpick, but I have to say it: To play it, you have to download a mod to play it, and it took me about a year to install it correctly. I wish this didn't happen, but sadly, there was nothing I could do except download the mod and do it correctly. Overall, while this game did have some flaws that annoyed me, I still enjoyed it for what it was, and if you want to play any of the older Wolfenstein installments, this one is worth your time and money.

Thru iortcw for Linux

I enjoyed Return to Castle Wolfenstein years ago on Windows XP with an old 64MB PCI GPU. Like most Quake 3 engine games, the graphics have aged so-so yet allow much for the modding crowd. Also like some Quake 3 engine games, there are source ports for running RtCW on newer OSes including Linux (iortcw). Enemies are varied in look and attacks. Environments are varied and encourage a bit of strategy. Weapons all have uses, with environments and enemies encouraging you to switch things up. Multiplayer (thru iortcw's "WolfMP" launcher) can connect you to matches against other aging Gen Xers! I'm glad I saw this puppy on gog.com with no DRM and scooped it up!

I invite you to Castle Wolfenstein.

What can I say, the game is good but it could be better. The first stages are delicious, but all that later paranormal envelope, super soldiers, bosses and those jumping mutants unfortunately detract from this game. The stages in which you fight Hitler's soldiers are great, they behave quite intelligently, they try to surprise the player and even on the easiest difficulty level they are quite a challenge. The best of the whole game is probably the first level during which we escape from the dungeon in the castle. The game maintains its high level to the mission in which we face these jumping mutants, later, unfortunately, it loses a lot of its beginner atmosphere. Nevertheless, it is a good production and I can recommend it with a pure heart. And my last pain is the ending, let me just say that I was a bit disappointed.

My all time favorite FPS

This title was a game changer for me when it came out in 2002. The single player campaign was very cool, but the multiplayer was what set this game apart from all others. It was the first time I ever played online and I was immediately hooked... not just a fan, but obsessed. Unfortunately, the Master Server has been down for a few years and the multiplayer game is practically useless. But the single player campaign is worth the price of admission.
