Is it still worth playing?
Kyle Katarn, a mercenary working for the Rebel Alliance, uncovers the Empire's secret Dark Trooper Project, in this 1995 first person shooter for MS-DOS and the first Star Wars shooter. The Jedi engine adds levels with several floors and the ability to look up and down, duck and jump. Each mission has objectives tied to the story, in places such as the inside of a Star Destroyer, Jabba the Hutt's yacht and a computer vault on Coruscant. You fight with fists, mines, thermal detonators, blasters and other weapons, and every weapon except the fist has a secondary mode. A head lamp lights the way but gives you away in dark rooms, and ice cleats and an air mask help with hazards. There are multi step puzzles, such as mazes controlled by switches. Missions with their own objectives and puzzles beyond the shooting still give each level a task.
