[DOS Game Club] Episode 93: Wolfenstein 3D
You’re in a Nazi prison, with a dead guard on the floor in front of you. You take his gun. Now you can fight your way out. This is the exciting premise of 1992’s Wolfenstein 3D, developed by id Software and published as shareware by Apogee.
Now we all know Wolfenstein 3D was not the first FPS game ever made, or the first FPS id Software made, or even the first Wolfenstein game. But it’s definitely one of the most foundational games for the first-person shooter genre, so all the more reason for us to finally check this one out for March, which is when we try to do a big blockbuster FPS game every year.
We have two guests joining Martijn (“Tijn”) and Florian (“rnlf”) for this episode. First of all long-time DGC veteral Bjorn (“TigerQuoll”), who not only joined the discussion on the forums for this month, but who also made a Wolfenstein 3D level pack for us all to enjoy! See the links below to get these. Also joining is first-time podcast participant Jake, for whom Wolfenstein 3D is one of their favourite games ever.
We also got two voice messages, one by watchful and one by Albrot. Thanks a lot for those! Also many thanks to DGC member console, who helped us again to edit this episode. All your support is much appreciated, we couldn’t make this show without it.
Enjoy!
