31 years ago today, on May 5th 1992, the legendary Wolfenstein 3D was released for DOS. I remember my friend had it on his PC (probably the next year, 1993, when I was 13), and my family had a Mac Performa that I eventually put it on too!
Not surprisingly, lots of people still play Wolf 3D today and are dedicated to making amazing custom maps and levels for it. There's just very few things as satisfying as killing digital Nazis. I still play the DOS version sometimes myself, and I recently put the 360 version on my Series X (one of the only good console versions- the SNES one is terrible!)
And sure, you could buy the original for just a dollar or two on Steam, but you can download it for FREE (or play it for free in your browser via DOSBox) at one of my all-time favorite sites on the web, DOS Gaming dot com, here: https://dosgames.com/game/wolfenstein-3d.
@jake4480 I grew up with the Mac version, that one is so much better than the DOS version. I can't play the DOS version because of that, it feels so wrong to play a game in a worse version than the one you grew up with.
@metalsnake 🤣 that's so interesting! It's been a LONG time since I've played that Mac version but I suspect you're correct, from what I remember. I LOVED that Mac version. Best thing to play on my folks' old Performa 🤣🤣
