I only ever played Wolfenstein The New Order and was super underwhelmed, to the point where I had to check if there was anything this series offered better than that mediocrity. Suffice it to say this definitely outshines most other FPS games I've played thus far (especially the generic COD wannabes of today) and its weird that this game doesn't get enough praise or attention that it so desperately deserves. Albeit not many care to shill old "niche" games that aren't console specific. This game really has everything I would ever want in an FPS: great shooting mechanics/feedback, fun level designs, differing objectives/playstyles, fun dumb story, actual enemies who fight back, and some pretty swell sound effects. Definitely in my top 10 FPS games list and definitely would recommend it to literally everyone who loves FPS games in general... One thing I WILL say, is that the silenced Sten gun is THE meta for human enemies at almost every distance, making most other guns kind of useless... pretty much used it 100% of the time when I got it and found out its unparalleled potential.
I love point and click games, they've got a lot of charm, a huge amount of interactions, and can test your wits. This game however has none of that. While I do like the aesthetics and animation, I am severly disappointed with this game. From the extremely bareboned attempts to pad out a 30 minute story with terrible logic puzzles that force you to go through a ton of hoops, to a majority of linear areas that have less than 3 interactive parts. It feels a lot like the Bubsy 3D to good 3D platformers... At least I got this game when it was free, yet even then, I think that may have been a price too great to pay.
There's not much here in terms of an actual game, but as a little slice of historical controversial themes of "The Times" I can't really be too mad at it. It really did feel nostalgic to the degree that this would definitely be on one of them 90's quiet kids' desktop... but as a game, it's really not worth the 3 minutes it takes to realize that there's nothing here at all.
