    "Project Warlock is a first person shooter that fans of Doom, Hexen and Wolfenstein cannot miss" is what the summary text of PROJECT WARLOCK reads and that is the problem: it mixes everything, present, medieval and sci-fi and that just doesn't work. Stick to ONE theme!
    The graphics are "old school" with a cartoonish look which I did not care for. The level design is poor as well. There

    The graphics are "old school" with a cartoonish look which I did not care for. The level design is poor as well. There are other "old school" shooters out there that do a far better job as WARLOCK like DUSK, ION FURY, APOCRYPH or WRATH: AEON OF RUIN.

    While not being an indie games enthusiast myself, I do wholeheartedly recommend this game – both to fans of pixel art aesthetics, and to those who just want to shoot a lot of stuff in an old school FPS. [13/2018, p.68]

    Project Warlock is a Doom-like that packs a punch. The levels are full of secrets, the enemies have a great range of behaviours, and the weapons – boy, the weapons – are a joy to use. Add all of that to the 60 levels to learn and explore and the challenges provided by the higher difficulty levels and you have a winning formula. Even if the pixel graphics aren’t your usual cup of tea, Project Warlock is more than worth your time.

    Project Warlock is an excellent old school fps that brings back the genre to its roots of the 90s. Search colored keys and kill hordes of ruthless demons in a frenetic and fast paced shooter that is really fun to play.
