This is a fun old school FPS that borrows Wolfenstein graphics and an Elder Scrolls inspired plot. If you missed out on some dungeon crawlers from the 90s, you'll enjoy this. Cons: This game is a tad repetitive.

Poor character control. A good attempt at making an old-school game, but the games of the past were more interesting and elaborate.

if a game is repetitiv like that it needs other qualitys that is why wolfenstein was so good at its time they understood the problem thats why they gave "good" weapon sounds and overall combat feedback like death animations screams splatter and stuff like that but tenebrous has not even a good mouse movment wich kills the game instantly combined with no combat feedback at all no way its just a pain to play sry but it was or is a nice try i like the setting and the ground idea but it needs a bit more then it has right now first of all get the mouse to work better then a bit splatter and sound and we will see us in the future maby

Summary: Tenebrous Dungeon is a solid and fun old-school FPS experience that pays utmost homage to the days of Wolfenstein 3D that while tries new things, does need some refinement in places. 7/10 A full detailed video review can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7bHk1vjmec Plot: The plot to Tenebrous Dungeon like many of its kind is quite simple and basic and acts more as a basis to build the world, setting and an objective for the player more than anything. But with that said it has plenty of lore and backstory to sink your teeth into that leaves nothing untold. It is interesting, well-written and well-paced, giving something for everyone to enjoy. Gameplay: Tenebrous Dungeon attempts some new twists on the standard format, but keeps everything that is loved about the Wolfenstein 3D format at the same time. Despite some of the new ideas needing refinement, as a whole the gameplay is solid and addictive and will keep you hooked from beginning to end. Atmosphere: The atmosphere to Tenebrous Dungeon is pretty good. It keeps in theme with the retro design and inspiration with a soundtrack that is equally as fitting. While the soundtrack may not amply the atmosphere…

I loved this game so much! It plays alot like Wolfenstein 3D, but it has it's own unique style and game mechanics. I also really like the shadow effect option the game gives you, but I had to turn it down since I was getting scared of seeing demons pop out of the shadows. This definitely brought me back to the days when I used to play on my old Windows 3 PC as a teenager. I also love that I can use my Xbox 360 controller with this game, it feels very natural. So, if you are old like me and want to take a trip down memory-lane, I'd recommend playing some Nirvana or Stone Temple Pilots in the background while playing Tenebrous Dungeon.
