Is it still worth playing?
id Software's 1999 first person shooter for Windows, the third in its series, with no story campaign and a focus on multiplayer. Played alone, it pits you against computer controlled bots in tiers of maps of rising difficulty. With others there are Free for All, Team Deathmatch, Tournament and Capture the Flag, with up to 16 players on deathmatch maps. The weapons each have a role, such as the railgun for long range and the lightning gun for close quarters. On death you lose all of them and respawn with the gauntlet and machine gun, while weapons and items on the map respawn at fixed intervals. Movement is a skill of its own, with strafe jumping and rocket jumping. Weapons with clear roles and feedback that makes them feel good still give every match a readable rhythm today.
