Cool Game for Fantasy Fans

Heretic is a first person shooter game that features a dark fantasy theme. The game was originally released in 1994 and over the years it has attracted a huge number of dedicated gaming fans from around the world.

Exploring the World

For those who are not already in the know, the main aim of Heretic is to explore the large world and take out any bad guys that you come across in any way possible. Players are given a large number of different types of weapons to make use from and working out which weapons work best on the different enemies can be fun. As the game progresses there are several types of items to locate that can help players to become successful, while there are plenty of surprises to discover.

Going Back in Time

Although Heretic took the gaming world by storm when it was first released, it has not managed to withstand the tests of time as well as some of its contemporaries. While older gamers are likely to want to revisit the title for the feeling of nostalgia that it delivers, younger gamers are likely to find that they become frustrated by the less than impressive graphics and the rather clumsy game controls.

  • Pros

  • Cons
