On this eve of Christmas, it's finally time to tune up a game that's long been gestating in the depths of the Collection Chamber. Wheel of Time (1999 Legend Entertainment & GT Interactive) is an excellent action game with a sprinkling of strategy that topped my Top 10 FPS Hidden Gems of the 90s video a while back. I wasn't happy enough with its performance back then to release it from the Chamber, but that all changes now! If you've enjoyed the slightly clunkly, but no less compelling Amazon Prime show based on Robert Jordan's original novels, you're in for something special.
Enjoy!

I remember this game being one of those titles that deserved way more attention than it got. The mix of FPS action and a bit of strategy made The Wheel of Time feel quite different from the usual shooters of that era. It’s also interesting to see it mentioned alongside the newer Amazon series, since that definitely gives the game some extra context today. The Collection Chamber sounds like a great place for rediscovering games that slipped under the radar. Definitely a nice choice for a Christmas catch-up post! spin mama
