Synopsis

A first-person shooter in which the time-traveling warrior Turok fights dinosaurs, aliens and cyborgs across six huge levels to stop an ancient evil. Each level asks you to complete several objectives, such as freeing captives and activating beacons, while you collect a large arsenal of strange weapons. The remaster also brings back the split-screen and online multiplayer modes.

Developer: Iguana Entertainment, Nightdive Studios
Released: 1998
Best version: Play the 2017 Nightdive remaster, which adds quicksaves, objective markers, modern resolutions and removes the heavy fog of the 1998 and 1999 versions.
Genre: Action, Adventure
Where to get it: Steam

Reception

Critics welcomed the remaster as a clean, well-optioned port, with Gaming Nexus praising its enemy variety and quicksave and Destructoid calling the campaign padded and hard to navigate. The few PC reviews range from 60 to 88. Steam player reviews remain very positive overall.

Controls feel natural on a modern controller or mouse and keyboard
Mouse and keyboard controls are fully remappable with adjustable sensitivity, and controllers work with remapping and on-screen prompts for Xbox, PlayStation and Switch pads. Source: pcgamingwiki.com.
Menus, text and interface are clear on today's screens
The remaster redrew the HUD for widescreen, supports 4K and ultrawide, and adds on-screen objective markers to track level goals. Source: pcgamingwiki.com, gamingnexus.com, destructoid.com.
Saving is fair: free saves or frequent checkpoints, little lost progress
The remaster adds a quicksave that works anywhere, on top of the original checkpoint portals where Adon refills ammo and health. Source: gamingnexus.com, destructoid.com.
Hard to make progress without a guide
Primary objectives sit behind hidden walls or well off the main path in levels with generic layouts, so a missed goal means combing the level again. The remaster's objective markers help but did not stop reviewers getting lost. Source: destructoid.com, gamingnexus.com.
Pacing drags: grind, filler or forced backtracking
Each level runs about an hour, and most levels need a power-up found in the following level, which forces backtracking through earlier stages. Source: gamingnexus.com, destructoid.com.
Camera and movement never fight the player
The first-person view offers a field of view from 45 to 179 degrees with Hor+ widescreen scaling. Source: pcgamingwiki.com.
