    Lots of content included in this game but in honesty the game itself has not aged very well and truthfully only the die hard first person pc shooter fans will likely get any enjoyment out of this game these days due to punishing difficulty, archaic level designs and cheap deaths which take you back to the beginning of level.

The game is an exercise in frustration and I grew tired of the gameplay, it also shows as a reminder as to the progression of modern FPS games and how quality of life features and improved game design have vastly increased the fun factor of this genre. I completely disagree with critics reviews of this game and it makes me question whether they were just living on nostalgia. Expand

    Quake is an old title, but a must play if you like fast paced first person shooters. The essence of Quake is in it’s gameplay, being the main reason to give this title a chance.

    If you missed Quake back in the day, this port is a fantastic way to experience this genre-defining work, especially for fans of 2016's DOOM. While a lot of the old-school design choices may feel simple by modern standards, it results in an elegantly intense game that's still an addicting delight to pick up for even a short session of a few minutes.

    Quake's remastered port to Nintendo Switch is proof that big video game companies don't need to treat their fans with disrespect when it comes to bringing back old classics. The level of content for such a small price is unmatched, and that is forgetting a whole new expansion pack was created for this release, too. The fact that everything can be completed cooperatively in multiplayer means less skilled players can enjoy getting through with the help of others, and then there are deathmatches for some of the best arena FPS action around. Well done to all involved in this.
