Plot
editNerves of Steel is set in the near future in Southeast Asia where ruler Kim Dung Moon is set on purifying the world. Moon plans to carry out this plan through a system of elaborate tunnels called the "Iron Triangle". The player must infiltrate this tunnel system and defeat all soldiers and monsters in their path to stop Kim Dung Moon's evil plans.[3]
Gameplay
editThe game is in a first-person perspective where the player uses rifles, pistols, and a rocket launcher to defeat monsters and soldiers in a tunnel complex. This game has a very similar control setup to Doom. The game has a solo campaign as well as multi-player playing options.[citation needed]
Reception
editNerves of Steel is generally viewed as one of the worst first-person shooter video games of all time.[4] Awkward controls and distasteful graphics are the two main complaints given by most reviewers.[5]
The game was remade in the GZDoom engine by Impie, a member of the Doom community who also adapted Operation Body Count.[6]
