But, like a lot of FPS games from the time, it was incredibly innovative and also included features that were at least slightly ahead of their time ( eg: an open world environment, in-game FMV etc.). One of the first things that I will say about this game is that it is something of an acquired taste. However, ever since a “roaring twenties”-style party on the island in 1932, no-one has been seen there since…. His Egyptology professor mentions that the owner of the estate, Tess Conway, took an artefact from an expedition she sponsored and that the artefact’s last known location was her private island. “Killing Time” is a horror-themed FPS game which revolves around an unnamed archaeologist visiting a mysterious island near Maine. Still, as intro movies go, this game has a really cool one 🙂 As mentioned above, the gameplay screenshots glitched out to the point of unusability.
Note: This is a screenshot from the intro movie. So, that said, let’s take a look at “Killing Time”: But, written descriptions and a screenshot from the intro movie’s video file (from the game’s folder) will have to suffice. This is kind of a shame since the best way to show what the gameplay looks like is to. Both versions also include a MP3 version of the game’s soundtrack too.īut, due to both my computer and the slightly old-fashioned graphics system in the game, this review won’t contain any gameplay screenshots – since any in-game screenshots I took tended to glitch out like this when I took them, and didn’t reflect my actual experience of playing the game. The Steam version, at the time of writing, seems to be marginally cheaper (at a little under £7).
At full price, it’s about £7-8 or so on GOG.
When I bought a DRM-free direct download of this game on GOG last spring, it was on sale and had been reduced to about £2. So, this is what I’ll be reviewing today. Well, for today, I thought that I’d take a look at a mostly-forgotten FPS game from 1996 called “Killing Time” that I finished a few hours before writing this review.Īlthough “Killing Time” apparently started life as a console game ( from 1995), the PC port is apparently so different that it’s pretty much it’s own game ( modern developers, learn from this!).
