Is it still worth playing?

Adam Randall, the son of a Cornish pastor, is plagued by nightmares after his father's death. He finds a house full of doors to other universes and himself the Chosen One who has to stop a last battle. This 1996 game for MS-DOS was its studio's most expensive project, three years in the making. It is two games at once, a point and click adventure of puzzles and exploring and a first person shooter, on Antony Crowther's True3D engine, which lets you roam the rooms and look at them from any angle, with swords, guns and magic as weapons. Live action film plays between, and a partner, Rebecca Trevisard, helps uncover the secrets. The doors still hide a universe behind every one, in a haunted house that is also a shooter.
