Join me for a complete gameplay run of Vice: Project Doom for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) played from start to finish with no cheat codes, no save states, and fully raw gameplay. Released in 1991 by American Sammy, Vice: Project Doom is one of the more underrated and unique action games released for the NES during the early 1990s.
Vice: Project Doom combines multiple gameplay styles into a single cinematic experience including Spy Hunter-inspired driving stages, Ninja Gaiden-style side-scrolling action, and first-person shooter sequences tied together with story-driven cutscenes between levels. The result is a surprisingly ambitious NES title that blends action, platforming, driving, shooting, and storytelling into one memorable retro gaming experience.
Throughout the gameplay, I showcase the full game while discussing the mechanics, level design, and difficulty of this hidden gem Nintendo title. While the game offers unlimited continues, players lose their score after continuing, adding extra challenge for those attempting a clean run.
At the time this video was recorded in 2019, Vice: Project Doom cartridges remained relatively affordable compared to many other sought-after NES titles, making it a great addition for collectors building a serious Nintendo Entertainment System game library.
Vice: Project Doom remains one of the most overlooked action games on the Nintendo Entertainment System, with a strong mix of classic side-scrolling action, Ninja Gaiden-inspired gameplay, American Sammy history, and vintage Nintendo collecting appeal.
