It's one one those games that you can't review now without taking into account the historical context. It's a game that launched a franchise and an empire, that has been so deeply optimized by speedrunners that the difference for the world record between human and machine is measured in frames. Should you play it in 2023 if somehow you haven't? Yes, probably, if only to witness where it all came from. It's a bit rough, it's difficult, it has puzzles that aren't very well explained... but at this point, it's a historical document more than a game.
