Return to Castle Wolfenstein is set during World War II, located somewhere in Germany. It blends warfare and the occult mixed in with science fiction, bringing together battles waged between opposing regular armies, mummies, undead warriors, demon bosses and mutant horrors. This makes for some very exciting & interesting game play. Single & Multiplayer games to choose from:

• Single Player:
  • You are B.J. Blazkowicz on a desperate mission behind enemy lines.
  • Use your wits, agility, and firepower to defeat the enemies awaiting you.
  • There are times for stealth and there are times for all out firepower.
  • Half the battle is figuring out which works best.
• Multiplayer:
  • The multiplayer component of Return to Castle Wolfenstein is a team-based game that pits an Axis team against an Allied team in one of three gameplay modes:
    • Objective (wolf MP) the default multiplayer mode.
    • Stopwatch (wolf SW) Switch mode, swap sides after each round
    • In Checkpoint (wolf CP) Battle for flag control.
  • Not all of the play modes are available on all of the maps.
  • You play as a member of the Axis or Allied team, as one of four classes:
    • Soldier
    • Engineer
    • Medic
    • Lieutenant

  See also: Timegate and Project 51, two user-made single player scenarios.
