Wolfenstein: The New Order for PS4 and PS3 is the latest in the Wolfenstein series. The first Wolfenstein game was called Castle Wolfenstein and it came out for Apple II, MS-DOS, Atari 400/800, Commodore 64 back in 1981. It’s a game of avoiding detection and managing limited resources while trying to escape from a Nazi stronghold. Combat was allowed, but bullets were precious, and non-violent options were often safer, such as pulling a gun on a guard and frisking him while his hands were raised. A sequel, Beyond Castle Wolfenstein, was published in 1984.
