William Shatner's TekWar

William Shatner's TekWar takes the futuristic crime world of the TekWar novels and turns it into a first-person shooter filled with gunfights, technology, and suspiciously dangerous corridors. You play Jake Cardigan, investigating cases in a dystopian future where criminals use illegal technology and law enforcement has plenty of reasons to keep busy. The game combines shooting with exploration and mission objectives, giving the player more to do than simply count ammunition. Its atmosphere is unmistakably mid-1990s science fiction, complete with chunky environments and a serious attitude that occasionally becomes unintentionally amusing. The shooting can feel rough by modern standards, but the setting gives the game character. Fans of retro cyberpunk will probably appreciate its dated visual style and ambitious attempt to create a futuristic world, even if the future apparently has a remarkable number of identical corridors.
