However, the SS guards are smarter than that, and will usually expose the player as an impostor. Once an enemy soldier is dispatched, his body can be searched for bullets, keys, grenades and bullet-proof vests.Īn alternative to the player shooting his way out of the castle is to find a uniform (either in a chest or from a dead guard), at which point the normal guards will think the player is one of them. The guards die with a scream of "Aieegh!", which is in the form of a digital sample.
Alternatively, a grenade can be used, though this will also attract the attention of nearby guards. The first is to shoot the enemy, but this expends bullets, a scarce commodity, and risks raising the alarm if another guard is present. The player has two means of killing enemies. They require a large number of bullets or a grenade to kill. The SS guards are much smarter and once alerted, tend to chase the player from room to room. Additionally, they are unable to leave the rooms they are stationed in. The basic guards are not very intelligent, reacting only to the sounds of gunshots and grenades, or after seeing the player wandering around without a uniform. There are two styles of guards, the basic guards, and the SS Stormtroopers who wear bullet-proof vests marked with the SS insignia. He must either run from the guards, or kill them. Once the player starts moving, he attracts the attention of the guards, who will try to shoot or apprehend him. Upon starting the game, the player is equipped with a gun and bullets, which were taken from a dead cellmate. Castle Wolfenstein can be controlled with a joystick, paddles, or a keyboard. The player traverses the levels by sneaking past guards, impersonating Nazi soldiers and sometimes even killing opponents. The game is played from a top-down perspective, though the characters are seen upright like in a platform game. There are 8 ranks, beginning with Private, culminating at the rank of Field Marshall. Progressively higher military ranks are earned upon each successful escape with the war plans, and the game becomes correspondingly more difficult as each higher rank is achieved.
