My typical Wolfenstein 3D experience: 1. Start level. 2. Run around, killing any enemies I find. 3. Get lost. 4. Start wall-hugging and mashing 'E' to find any hidden walls. 5. Somehow get even more lost. 6. Finally find path to exit. 7. Get shot and killed by off-screen enemy. 8. Cry.

You want to be a hero, don't you? You don't like Nazis, do you? You want to shoot Nazis, don't you? Well, what are you waiting for? One of the first First-person shooters, and the one that started the Genre, Wolfenstein 3D has a very simple premise: Shoot Nazis, don't die, and find the exit. Of course, there's a bit more to it than that, but that's the general idea. Find keys to open doors, scour levels for secrets and hidden treasure, health kits to keep you alive, and most importantly, weapons and ammunition to take down those goose-stepping goons. The action is fast-paced, and while extremely primitive by today's standards, it's the classic that launched Id Software on it's meteoric rise, and spawned the absolute beasts that are Doom and Quake. You get six episodes with ten levels each, four weapons of increasing lethality, and an assortment of enemies to take down, from guard dogs to common soldiers to elite SS units, and bosses that can both take and deliver a beating. Included is the followup prequel: Spear of Destiny, in which you infiltrate Castle Nuremberg to wrest the holy relic that pierced the side of Christ out from Hitler's grasp. From the deepest dungeon to the highest tower, it's up to you to find and retrieve the Spear to bring it safely into allied hands. Keep that Gatling gun handy as you're going to seriously need it to survive this campaign.

Great remake of the original Castle Wolfenstein Apple II game from 1981. The addition of a third dimension truly brought to life the struggles of POW allied soldiers that where subjected to the horrors of the macabre Castle Wolfenstein during the second of the Great Wars of the 20th century. Thankfully during his escape B.J. Blazkowicz puts an end to the plans to flood the human race with mutants hellbent on the destruction of all democracy and most likely... all unmutated life itself. Remember, those who forget history are doomed to get mutated... by bomb or/and mad scientists, the outcome is dire.

For anybody on here saying "its good but you cant walk left and right". You can strafe left and right by holding alt, and then using the buttons you use to look left and right to instead step in those directions. Pls like this comment so more people see it and can enjoy the game. A lot of old FPS games used the alt to strafe style, including doom 93.
