This game is better than you think it is. Nitemare 3D is the final (thus far) chapter in the adventures of the intrepid Hugo (of House of Horrors and Whodunit? fame). Instead of a Sierra-clone adventure, it's now a Wolf-clone first-person shooter. The levels are fairly well done and the graphics are decent, but the soundtrack really sets it apart; the moody music sets the tone perfectly and is some of the best Adlib music I've heard since Vibrants.

Just go ahead and download it; admit it, you can't get enough of Hugo.

I really hate this game. An action game needs some semblance of control over the character. The problem with Nitemare is that the movement is choppy and the trajectories are all wrong. I find it highly irritating when I fire a projectile at, say, Frankenstein's monster, only to find it move excruciatingly slowly. It's like walking around an enemy-filled labyrinth and trying to peg everyone with a baseball. How tedious!

This general game will always hold a place
in my heart. After I saw my friend
playing what I found out later was Doom,
I was so excited to jump in and explore
that I got a compuserve account and started
downloading everything 3D I could find.
N3D was one of them, and the first FPS I ever
played. The music was quite good, spooky
funky, and dirgey- and i've always fantasized
of exploring haunted manors. David Gray (and later
Id) seemed to pick my brain and find
that hidden Haunted Manor explorer i'd lost
somewhere in childhood. Now I still have that
bug, gladly. I love the decorations
and wall paper. I love the sounds. It generally
gives me the chills. I wish David Gray would get
to work on more first person games. I even told him
so.
