was made in 1991 : Crusader No Remorse https://www.gog.com/game/crusader_no_remorseI installed it on my XPS13 and it plays wonderfully well, I remember giving it a try some ten years ago using DOS BOX, but on a desktop it did not run that well, on a notebook it is much better, in size closer to the original experience. I remember when and where I bought it, 28 years ago - amazing.

Crusader had the funkiest PC controls in history. I played it recently and while awesome, the controls got in my way. For nostalgia: Tom, you need a setup like this.

I'd buy a remake of Crusader with modern controls in an instant. with some higher res textures as well - but it is fun as it is. I finished the first level : well designed and you need to plan what you are going to do or you won't survive. I was at the end of my health and ammo when I finished.

Retro-gaming can be fun. My most recent experience was replaying "Knights of the Old Republic". I would gladly pay $60 or more for a new version with updated current day graphics. There were some fans working on a remake called Apeiron but they were hit by a C&D and forced to stop working on their port.
