I love oldschool FPS’s, but somehow the whole boomer shooter resurgence just passed me by. I just finished Boltgun on the hardest difficulty and had a great time, would love to hear some other suggestions

    There are a lot to sift through, but I recommend:

    • Nightmare Reaper It has tons of fun weapons, enemies, and challenges. You play as a woman sent to an asylum and the battle is against the horrors within her head.
    • AMID EVIL A magic themed FPS that reminds me a lot of Hexen/Hexic. It has a superb soundtrack as well.
    • Forgive Me Father A horrific adventure to fight a cult and its otherworldly summonings. Has a perk progression system that sets it apart from most.

      Seconding Amid Evil, it’s a lot of fun. Sometimes I fire it up for a quick game. Cool weapons.

      Nightmare Reaper is an absolute blast. I found it scrolling YouTube a year or so back and have enjoyed almost every minute with it.

      I haven’t tried Amid Evil yet, just the VR edition. The VR version has been incredible so far.

      If VR is of any interest Compound is another great game. It gets more into rogue-like territory but the Doom era inspirations are apparent immediately
