Fantastic game, solid remaster.
Blood is considered best game using Build engine, and for a good reason. What it lacked in a visuals, it delivered in gameplay and atmosphere. First and foremost - this game is hard, but it's not an unfair challenge. Enemy and weapon roster is varied: you will fight against cultists, zombies, gargoyles and other monsters. Your arsenal consists of shotgun, dynamite, voodoo doll and even a lighter with spray can. You will need to learn not only how you use your weapons efficiently, but also which monster is more resistant to which weapon. Levels are very well designed, despite being complex you won't get lost. The more memorable maps are opera house, burned home near swamp, haunted hotel, funfair, lumber mill turned to people-killing facility... The list goes on. And each map is filled to the brim with secrets and easter eggs (my favourite: jukebox, which instead of music plays screams of murdered people). Sound effects and music are just marvelous. Game comes with two soundtracks (CD Audio and MIDI), and both of them just drip with atmosphere of dread. It's easily the best horror music I've ever heard in retro FPS, only Hexen comes close. Game is filled to the brim with chilling SFX. Graphics, despite using dated engine for a 1997 standards, maintain the gloomy mood. Sprites are detailed, and some of them can be replaced with 3D models made with voxels. So, what about the remaster itself? I've been playing latest version (1.9.10) and experienced no crashes and glitches. However, comparing to work done by Nightdive with Strife, I wish that there was native Linux/Mac support. Thankfully, Wine works great with Blood. Moreover, with Strife devs went extra mile with additional sidequests and eye-candy, which is missing there. Anyway, right now it's stable reconstruction of original game engine. And if you want original DOS version, then it's also included in the package (it used to be sold separately). If you have never played it before, get it now!
