Strife did Deus Ex before Deus Ex – sort of.
Reinstall invites you to join us in revisiting classics of PC gaming days gone by. This week, Paul returns to the ambitious Doom-era FPS/RPG hybrid, Strife.
Coming back to Strife is a delight. The hub that sits at the centre of the game is a town within the iron grip of the Order. Armed and armoured guards are posted on every corner, just waiting to strike should you decide the best way to rebel is to fight in the streets. None of these areas are particularly pretty and the years haven't been kind to Strife's grey corridors, but the game's mixture of the historical and high-tech is distinctive. Deep in the bowels of a mighty citadel you'll find huge computer screens mounted across the stone walls, while the private quarters next door might boast no more than candles and a four-poster bed.
Strife is similarly basic in its introduction of roleplaying elements. You can talk with almost anyone, but your conversation choices are very limited, while character improvement is restricted to a few very rudimentary advancements such as improving your weapon accuracy or gaining ten more hit points. There are, however, multiple endings, depending upon the order that you complete certain tasks in, or if you fail outright.
