Is it still worth playing?

Kurt Hectic, a janitor, reluctantly sets out to save Earth from giant strip mining city vehicles called Minecrawlers, in this 1997 third person shooter for Windows. His suit has a chaingun on one arm and a sniper rifle on his face, and in sniper mode he can zoom in up to 100 times. Each level starts with a jump from his space station, then he fights through the Minecrawler, solves rudimentary puzzles and reaches the control center to eliminate the pilot. A ribbon chute in his suit can be used without limit to make long jumps and survive falls. Picking up an airstrike lets him call a bomber, and The World's Smallest Nuclear Explosion opens locked doors. There are six levels and it takes about four hours. Each level has its own enemies, layout and way of beating the pilot, which still keeps the run varied.
