Doom 64

Sci-fi setting

A classic first-person shooter where you blast through 30+ grim levels of demons, hunt secrets and track down the Mother of Demons. The remaster of the N64 original delivers retro pacing, key-hunting level design and an eerie atmosphere.

Descent II

Lots to discover

A classic six-degrees-of-freedom shooter where you pilot a ship in every direction through twisting alien mines full of hostile robots. Key hunting, new weapons and disorienting 3D navigation make for intense action.

Aliens versus Predator 2

Sci-fi setting

An atmospheric first-person shooter where you play three distinct campaigns as Marine, Predator and Alien, each with its own playstyle. The dark Alien-universe setting creates tense horror built on ambushes and hunting.

Star Wars: Dark Forces

Lots to discover

An early Star Wars first-person shooter where you play mercenary Kyle Katarn aiding the Rebels, starting with stealing the Death Star plans. Its maze-like levels, key hunts and vertical design set it apart as a Doom contemporary with its own identity.

Abuse

Sci-fi setting

A 1996 side-scrolling shooter where you move with the keyboard and aim freely with the mouse. You battle swarms of mutants and solve simple switch puzzles across dark sci-fi levels.

Descent

Lots to discover

A pioneering six-degrees-of-freedom shooter where you pilot a ship in every direction through twisting mine tunnels, destroying hostile robots. Disorienting true-3D mazes and the hunt for keycards give it its unique appeal.

Half-Life: Uplink

Realistic visuals

Uplink is a short standalone Half-Life demo built from content cut from the main game. It delivers classic shooter action with familiar weapons and enemies in a research facility setting.

Receiver

Challenging difficulty

A minimalist first-person shooter where every gun action is manual: ejecting the magazine, loading rounds one by one, cocking the hammer. Randomized levels and scattered tapes tell a dark story in fragments, while turrets and drones punish every mistake.

Alien Breed

Sci-fi setting

A classic top-down shooter where you fight through an alien-infested space station, juggling scarce ammo, health and mission objectives. Its tense sci-fi horror mood is clearly inspired by the Alien films.
