Stuck in Castle Nessenstein

Platform: NES
Year: 2005
Developer: Micol972

For another games inspired by Wolfenstein 3D, see Wolfenstein.

More the demo test, than the game, however, Stuck in Castle Nessenstein also can make fun.

The genre of the game looks like FPS, but because this game was never ended, it's hard to give the genre to this game.

Actually the game has only title screen and the first level. The in-game GUI looks like the version in the Wolfenstein 3D (DOS) game, but it's actually fake. You cannot change your weapon, increase or lose health (it's always "6502 %"), life (you'll always have 3). You cannot fight, and the sprite of your fist can't move. The GUI shows the sprite of Mario from Super Mario Bros. (NES) istead of Willian Jozepf Blazkowicz.

There are no enemies - only the map and the first level. No sprites on the level, no chance to exit without the reboot of the system or emulator itself. The walls have no shading or picture on it - only colored with one or two colors. But the game is the very nice trying of making Wolfenstein 3D engine-style pseudo-3D raycast on NES platform.

Due to this features, this game may be barely considered as the NES port of Wolfenstein 3D (DOS).

The title of the game is obviousle the play-on-words between "Castle Wolfenstein" and "NES" platform.

This may be the reason that's why they choose the name "Stuck in Castle Nessenstein". Really stuck!

Music

The in-game music has nothing with the original music of Bobby Prince or Koji Kondo. Actually, it only consists of the covers from other video games, namely Lemmings (AMI) and Last Ninja 2: Back with a Vengeance (C64). But due to the clever programming of NES sound chip, both track work like they were original ones, made exclusively for that demo.

Recording
