Excellent LAN Party Game

Once upon a time, between the original Team Fortress and Team Fortress 2, there were a lot of team-based shooters--each with their own quirks. Enemy Territory has always been free and has always been huge fun. It's running on the Quake 3 engine, and if you're familiar, then you know what you're in for. The bunny hopping, gibbing, and arena gameplay are all there, but with a really well-done coat of WWII paint: Axis vs Allies. Each team has classes (just like Team Fortress) but instead of capture the flag, each map has different objectives which normally consist of capturing specific strategic points or blowing up targets. The maps take a while to learn, but even total noobs can have a ton of fun due to the simple gameplay and controls. The entire install is tiny, and servers can install mods which will load on the fly. This is a game you can play with friends (or your entire office, school, etc.) in minutes. This was actually the pick for my highschool LAN parties back in the day, and it was always a blast.

Office LAN party gem

Excellent game to play at a LAN party (at the office in my case). Just to clarify you can play LAN only without internet.

It is offline and amazing

I played RTCW and ET for years, both for fun and competitively. They are amazing games that are absolutely simple to mod with unending mods out there. For both games there are bots such as Fritzbot that really feel like playing with other players. They can be dumb, but you can fill a server and they will play the objective, even doing some of the stuff common of the time like getting in your face and shaking around, tking during warm up, and tea bagging. The bots even work for the hundreds of custom maps out there for both games MP. This is the pinnacle of the Quake engine and tons of fun. There are still MP servers running, or just grab the bots and have fun!

A MUST-PLAY classic shooter!

It's funny, I literally JUST wrote a review for this game on Steam, only to see it came to GOG as well. I'm down with it, though, as I'll always take games on GOG over other platforms when given that choice! There's a high chance that if you have been on GOG for a while, you're part of the audience that'll absolutely adore this game. Many of us can agree that shooters from the early 2000s had a special spark to them that made them truly unique. That spark has, for the most part, been lost in the decades since. Perhaps it's nostalgia but I'm not so sure about that because even today, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory has that spark. This game comes from the era before tactical strikes, before battle royales, back when the goal was to be both fun AND believable. As such, this game has a fantastic blend of elements you'll find from both the arena shooter genre and some of the more objective-based elements present in later shooters. Combat itself feels slightly floaty like an arena shooter, but the map layouts and objective gameplay make you feel more like you're a soldier than an athlete in an arena. This blend is done so well and the result is that Enemy Territory is just a straight up FUN experience. Add to that the fact that it has countless custom maps and mods, as well as fully player-run servers, and you get a game that allows a lot of player freedom. Whether you play the more traditional objective-based maps or goofier maps like the legendary Cortex, you're always going to have fun and you'll never be lacking in choice on what sort of gameplay you want to get. Then, there are QoL mods such as ET Legacy, which help to bring the game up to speed with the modern age. No matter what, because it's open source, you can pretty much choose how to approach this game. To summarize, if you enjoy old school shooters, you really have to play this game. There really aren't any words to describe just how much of a blast it was to play this, both in LAN and online matches!

Still a great multiplayer shooter

Really fun concept of teams trying to complete map defined objectives while the other team defends. You might want to check out the open source version of this game called ET: Legacy.
