Is MURI worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Players who enjoy shooters with both run-and-gun and tactical combat
- Fans of science-fiction stories involving Mars and human factions
- Players seeking games with EGA graphics and PC Speaker sound
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a shooter focused on one consistent combat style rather than alternating between fast action and tactical encounters
- Players looking for a modern audiovisual presentation rather than 16-color EGA graphics and PC Speaker sound
- Players seeking multiplayer shooting, which is not part of the described feature set
Our take on MURI
The retro presentation trades contemporary audiovisual detail for EGA graphics and PC Speaker audio. Combat also changes pace, so play is not limited to uninterrupted run-and-gun action.
What is MURI?
MURI is a shooter with a science-fiction story set after the colonization of Mars.
A group of scientists creates an armor suit with cataclysmic power, sparking conflict among several factions. When Mars disappears, one woman sets out to discover humanity’s fate. Combat shifts between run-and-gun action and more tactical encounters. The game uses 16-color EGA graphics and PC Speaker music and sound. It draws inspiration from games of its era, and an optional TURBO mode is available.
