More About Doom

Fight from a desolate military base in space to the Shores of Hell Itself in this violent shooter.

Featured multiplayer over LAN or modem, as well as a multi-episode (and frequently supplemented, both by Id and by an active community of modders) single player campaign. This game was also one of the big shareware successes, selling a ton of copies by mail-order.

It was also one of the first FPS games to feature widely distributed level editors - a LOT of people got started in level editing with DOOM or its contemporaries.
