The original 2003 shooter that set the series template: squad-based World War II set pieces where scripted allies shout over each other and the war feels like it is happening around you rather than to you alone.

A Quake III-engine shooter split between grounded WWII combat and occult nonsense, and it commits fully to both. The stealth missions and the weapon feel still hold up.
