My friends and I played this a lot when I was little. Spent hours on it. The extremely extremely limited ammo system hasn’t been used much since— probably for good reason. The controls weren’t the greatest either, iirc.

100 sounds low, they tended to be 300-600 per CD, and all shareware not pirated, so perfectly legal and encouraged. I had multiple such disks as a kid… the jank in how to get the games working (dos and win3.1, mostly) was what got me to learn to use computers back in the day.


I loved act 1 of this game, but the rest seemed scattered and unfocused. I would have loved if the story from act 1 developed further over the course of the game, instead of ending abruptly with a boss fight and then basically never mentioning anything in the act again.
Man, I was a Potter fan for years. But the reviews and analysis that I’ve seen of this game mark it as casually and unrepentantly antisemitic… not as a side thing, but core to the main plot and central to what you do in the game. I don’t think I can handle that.
