Overview
A complete list of all the true Retro FPS games available on Steam. I use these lists for my own reference but I’m happy if it helps anyone else too. I thought DUSK would be a good place for this guide due to DUSK players being fans of the true Retro FPS genre.

Additional Notes:
Anything missing? Let me know. I’ll add it. 🙂
Found a game eligible for the list?
Please make sure it matches the following requirements:
• Must be a proper First Person Shooter (I do not class games such as Descent as FPS games, they fall under the 6DOF category.)
• Classic/Retro style movement similar to Quake/DOOM/Heretic etc
• End level stats such as Enemies Killed and Secrets Found
A game such as Turok meets all of these requirements whereas a game like Half-Life, as brilliant as it is, does NOT.
