This was apparently supposed to be the sequel to Wolfenstein 3D, but it really only retains the three-firearm loadout and the fash baddies. The grenade guys and the monks are some of the most annoying enemies that I've encountered in a boomer shooter, as their earsplitting grunting can only be avoided if you splat them with explosive weapons—you can only hold one of those at a given time, an element that distinguishes this game from other contemporary titles in the genre. There's some interesting uses of verticality and one really good boss fight against NME, a robot equipped with a bottomless arsenal of explosives. Other than that, Dark War is a bit messy. I played it via the Nightdive port.

A marginal improvement over the previous mission pack, but the last couple of levels are a serious pain in the ass.

Definitely a subpar offering when compared to Wolfenstein 3D and Spear of Destiny, but it is twenty or so levels with a new coat of garishly ugly paint, so it's not irredeemable garbage or anything. The sound effects are pretty funny.
