Actually, the full title is "Wolfenstein 3-D" (the "Castle" part
only applies to the original 8-bit Apple II versions). As for comments
on the IIgs port, you'll have to wait another two-three weeks, no one has
seen the game other than BurgerBill and any existing beta testers. Vitesse
recommends an accelerator, so one can only assume it's going to crawl on
a stock system, much like "Out of This World" did. I only hope the music
quality is a little better than OOTW (as most will recall it was very
"synthy" sounding compared with the SuperNintendo release). Overall though,
I don't think anyone will be disappointed, in fact, I have a feeling it may
become the new #1 best game for the IIGS. :-)

From what I heard, these will now run under GS/OS, so I can only
assume they'll also be GS-specific in terms of graphics and sounds. Also
look for a re-release of "Tass Times in Tonetown" from Vitesse soon!
