With this being my first time playing Blake Stone, I enjoyed it overall. The experience back at the time of release probably would have been more astonishing, but Doom was still quite a bit better than this.
The story being rather simple, Blake Stone is an agent that is tasked with stopping Dr. Goldfire from controlling the world with his soldiers and monsters. With levels being designed very much like Wolfenstein 3D, the player must blast through about 60 levels to stop Goldfire's plans. If you have played Wolf 3D, this sounds daunting, but I feel the levels and game play of Blake Stone are better. There are about 30 different enemy types, 5 weapons, more detailed textures, and much more developed levels. While Wolfenstein 3D can be fun, it is very tiresome as it can get stale quickly and the levels feel too maze-like with too few variation in graphics or landmarks. Blake Stone still has maze levels, most rooms aren't simple boxes most times, and have plants or tables or other environmental uniqueness to help one remember where a room is. It isn't as good as Doom's map, but it is still more helpful than not having one.
There are quite a few features that stand apart from Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Heretic, or Quake. Blake Stone showcases some natural textures for natural levels, but most are space station and military or research facilities. There are vending machines around levels that can give you some health for a ration. The 5th weapon is an explosive type, unfortunately all weapons share the same ammo pool like Wolf 3D. Secret push walls, keys, and fast-paced shooting similar to other games of the time.
The music and sound design are great (Apogee were pretty strong in this area). Very distinct sounds for each enemy and good feedback for everything happening in the game.
No bugs found when playing through, but quite a few issues to note. I would highly recommend using a source port to make the experience more enjoyable (more options and settings to mess with) Turning the heartbeat sound and the annoying game over scenes are reason enough to download it. Aside from that, it will take some time to get use to. Especially in 1x1 hallways where you are as wide as the corridors. If you are a retro shooter fan or are looking for an experience similar to Wolfenstein 3D, this game is for you.
I honestly can't believe someone made Blake Stone work on a modern PC. I was obsessed with this game as a kid. Today, not so much. After playing it for a little bit, I have to admit it does not stand the test of time. What a weird jank-fest of early 3D FPS. That said, if you are looking for early 3D FPS jankery, I highly recommend this game.
"You cant throw a Blake Stone without hitting a secret wall in Blake Stone, and when you're inside of a secret, keep up that wall humping because there's probably a secret inside of that secret. And that secret? There's also probably a secret inside of that one. THIS SECRET IS FIVE SECRETS DEEP. This game is hiding more secrets than the CIA!"

What the fuck is a Blake Stone?
Fun shooter built in the Wolf 3D engine (which is crazy considering all the things it has in it) that holds up.
