The first episode of Wolfenstein 3D was released to the Software Creations BBS by id Software at 4AM on May 5th 1992. For its 30th anniversary, I thought I'd finally get around to restoring my IBM XT 286 (model number 5162) so I could enjoy the game on the very lowest spec machine it supports - just as many people (myself included) played this legendary DOS FPS back in the day!

In addition to the restoration, upgrades will include an AdLib sound card, XT-IDE hard disk support and a network card.

Big thanks to @RMCRetro for his voice acting skills in this one!
