Once the game begins you immediately hear the deep, tense background music that reminds you of action scenes from the movie. The opening title sets you up with the classic John Williams movie theme, complete with stars and a crawl of slanted text. The music and sounds in the game are incredible (even more so if you're a Star Wars junkie). Don't forget to strafe! Much life energy can be saved by surprising the enemy - instead of letting the enemy surprise you. You also have the ability to crouch and jump, both necessary in progressing through the game. With the up/down feature, you are able to kill your would-be assassin wherever he may be - or even take out a clueless Stormtrooper and be the assassin yourself!

You'll need to do this! Just when you think you're safely alone as you walk across a cliff face, a shot fires from who-knows-where, forcing you to spend a few moments searching for the sniper. While it may sound like your regular old Doom clone, Dark Forces has more playability, great sound, and most of all, gorgeous scenery.ĭark Forces is the first first-person shooter created allowing you to look up and down, making it easier for you to take out enemies above and below you.

It's another of those blast-'em-all-away games where your mission is to get from one point to the other. Star Wars: Dark Forces is a must-play for any Star Wars fan itching to blast Stormtroopers from a first-person perspective.
