Wolf3D is the OG first person shooter and an important footstep in the genre. The game is still a ton of fun for a game this old and I highly recommend giving it a try.

About the game
World War II rages. The Nazis are planning to build an unstoppable, mutant army. On a mission to steal the secret plans, you were captured and imprisoned. Now, a lucky break gives you the chance to escape, but a maze of passages and trigger-happy Nazis stand in your way.
