Marathon's lack of ambient sounds, surplus of ambushes, and Art style, music, and Enemy intelligence combine to create a surprisingly scary, yet enjoyable game. I have to say, it's really well done. Bungie should do a remake. I'd love to be able to play online. Xargon or Gex are also up there, as classic side scrollers with amazing art style.
Is Myst freeware?
Negative. It's like £5 on gog.com
Surprisingly pricey for such an old PC title, but it is one of the best and influential games ever made.
£3.69, I was close.
