What is DOOM?
A fast-paced first-person shooter set in a demon-overrun research facility on Mars and in Hell. As the lone Doom Marine, you move through a single-player campaign, using guns, upgrades, and melee attacks to kill demons; multiplayer arena modes and the SnapMap level editor provide other ways to play.

- +you want a campaign, arena multiplayer, and level creation
Not for you if...
- −you dislike graphic gore and violent melee finishers
- −you tire quickly of repeated arena-style combat
- −you want extensive storytelling between firefights
