Summary

Completely awful

The Good

I actually like nothing about this game. Only a madman would like this game.

The Bad

Everything, the gameplay is utterly dull, the graphics look insanely ugly, the sound effects are completely dull. The game feels like a very bad mod for the game Duke Nukem 3D, which is indirectly true, since before the game was released the game was a half-completed TC for Duke3D with the name Platoon, the irony is that the original TC was actually better. Which had fine hand-drawn graphics (replaced with the awful pre-rendered 3D sprites in the commercial game), and the TC actually had good fun levels (of course, for the commercial game, they made new horrible levels). How they managed to ruin everything in the commerical game is completely bizarre.

The Bottom Line

Run away if you see it... no, burn any copies you may see of it. The game's a sin. If you want a good Build (the Duke3D engine) game, try out Shadow Warrior or the fantastic Blood. Do *not* play this game. Never ever even look in the same direction.

The bizarre thing is that the game did actually spawn a sequel (WW2GI), how the authors got permission to do that is a big mystery, but the sequel is actually worse.
