Quake II

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A landmark sci-fi shooter: a lone marine fights through the industrial hellscape of Stroggos against a cybernetic alien army. It delivers fast gunplay, interconnected hub levels, a pounding metal soundtrack, and influential deathmatch multiplayer.

Overload

Sci-fi setting

Overload is a six-degrees-of-freedom shooter that revives the Descent formula: you fly weightlessly through tight mine complexes, blasting robots and hunting for keys and secrets. Precise controls and fast, frantic combat are the core appeal.

Descent II

Sci-fi setting

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.

Turok 2: Seeds of Evil

Sci-fi setting

A classic late-90s first-person shooter where you play the dinosaur hunter Turok through huge, sprawling levels filled with prehistoric beasts, aliens and outlandish weapons. Hunting for keys and secrets matters as much as the shooting.

Descent

Sci-fi setting

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.

PowerSlave

Lots to discover

A 90s first-person shooter set in an Egyptian city taken over by alien invaders. Sprawling levels with key hunting and secrets give it a touch of Metroidvania-style exploration.

Halo 3: ODST

Sci-fi setting

Instead of Master Chief, you play a fragile ODST trooper roaming a dark, occupied New Mombasa, piecing together your squad's fate through flashback missions set to a moody noir-jazz score. The cooperative Firefight mode adds wave-survival battles against the Covenant with friends.

Metal Garden

Sci-fi setting

A short, atmospheric single-player shooter that takes you through an overgrown megastructure. Exploration and light puzzles accompany the action as you seek out what lies beyond.

Descent 3

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A six-degrees-of-freedom shooter where you fly your ship freely through tight tunnels and caverns, fighting hostile robots. Fully three-dimensional movement with no fixed up or down makes it distinctive and demanding.
