One of several FPS games that came out around this time that is this awkward mix of tactical shooter and the earlier more arcadey ones. See also Soldier of Fortune II or Project I.G.I. I don't particularly care for any of them. It's not really satisfying as a shooter, filled with bullshit difficulty and design.

The opening missions at the castle are fun, but the further you get the more it becomes about peeking through the rifle scope taking potshots at long range and it's just no fun. This has a fervent cult following who love it, nostalgic or not, but to me i think it is pretty weak compared to other FPS games of the time, not to mention other games in the Wolfenstein series.
