Wolfenstein: The New Order

Date played: April 25th
Platform: PS4
Session fun rating: 9/10

In the heart of Berlin, we found a small resistance group hidden in a building. The ragtag group has a very cool headquarters that includes complex computers, weapons, a memorial to fallen colleagues, a kitchen, a working toilet (!) and some rooms to sleep. I completed a few little fetch quests inside the HQ.

Then the game went completely bonkers... I found a bed and got some sleep only to live through a nightmare, the first level of the original Wolfenstein 3D! It really was incredibly clever and honestly, still a lot of fun. They even still had all the same secrets hidden behind false walls and everything!
Yep, this happened.

I woke up and we had our next objective. We would attempt to steal a prototype helicopter from a Nazi scientific research facility. So far, the mission is pretty standard. I got to use a new weapon, the Marksman. It's not quite a sniper rifle, but it's really close. It is powerful and fun to use, but ammo is limited. I explored the facility, killing dozens of enemies along the way. I reached a really cool room with a giant replica of the moon in the middle and stopped playing shortly after.
