Is it still worth playing?
id Software's 1997 first person shooter, in which a space marine named Bitterman crash lands on Stroggos, the homeworld of the Strogg, a half mutant, half machine alien race. He is the last survivor of his squad and has to complete missions to cripple the Strogg and stop their plan to conquer Earth. A hub system connects the levels, which are large and open. You carry four weapons redesigned from the first Quake and six new ones, and the Quad Damage power up returns beside new ones. Multiplayer has free for all deathmatch, one on one matches, Capture the Flag and cooperative play through the campaign. It was the first id Software game not released for MS-DOS, and its source code was released under the GPL in 2001. Today the campaign gives you a structure that is clear to follow, with mission objectives and a hub to move between large levels.
