Abandonware DOS title

Doom

Doom was released by id Software in 1993. It is widely regarded as one of the most influential and groundbreaking video games of all time, particularly within the first-person shooter (FPS) genre.
Set in the future on the moons of Mars, the game follows the player-controlled character, known as the "Doom Marine", as they battle through a research facility overrun by demonic forces unleashed through experiments in teleportation. The game features fast-paced, intense gameplay, with players navigating through labyrinthine levels while battling hordes of monsters using an arsenal of weapons ranging from pistols and shotguns to rocket launchers and plasma rifles.

Doom reviews

All Game Guide: "If you like Quake and Duke Nukem, there is no way you can't like Doom, one of the original first-person shoot-em-up games created (Wolfenstein started it, baby!). The good thing about game designers is that they know what the public wants: a place to release their pent-up aggression and frustrations. What better way to express your inner rage than in the corridors and catacombs of Doom?"

Computer and Videogames (1994): "There have been several recent 3D action games on PC - Terminator Rampage, and the 3D parts of Jurassic Park spring to mind - but none of them are in the same league as Doom. It looks better, sounds better, plays better and is altogether meaner, nastier and harder than all of them put together. Technically and visually it's awesome, you get hours and hours of gameplay for your money - not only that but you can also try it out as shareware for incredulous first - and the action is incredibly intense."

Retro gamer collector's corner:

The popularity of Doom led to the development of expansion packs and alternate versions based on the same game engine, including The Ultimate Doom (1995), Final Doom (1996), and Doom 64 (1997).

    DosBox is a great way to run older games on any OS. It also has full Gravis Ultrasound and Roland MT-32 emulation.

    @Dunkin: There are many source ports out there to play Doom on Windows. Probably the easiest port out there is ZDoom.
