WitchavenDeveloper: Capstone Software
Release Date: September 1995
Source Code Release Date: August 2006
Witchaven, based on a pen-and-paper RPG supplement, was the first game to use the Build engine. Although not nearly as successful or technically advanced as its successors, it nevertheless attempted to pull off a combination of first person action and role playing elements.
The source was released by a former Capstone programmer in 2006 and the JFWitchaven project arose from that.
This game is definitely not nearly as polished or advanced as later Build games but it's still an intersting artifact of the mid-90's FPS gold rush.
