Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the secret level within episode 1, "Knee-Deep in the Dead"?

Answer: Military Base

Each episode of "DOOM" has a secret exit buried somewhere, in which the player gains access to unique secret levels.

2. Which is the hardest difficulty in "DOOM"?

Answer: Nightmare!

Nightmare! mode is notoriously difficult as it means enemies will constantly respawn, often not dropping any ammo at all. This essentially means players must race to the end as methodically killing enemies is a futile task.

3. "DOOM" introduced gamers to the Super Shotgun.

Answer: False

"DOOM II: Hell on Earth" was the first game in the series to let players go wild with the Super Shotgun. This weapon is considered the game's main workhorse as it's essentially effective against any enemy the game throws at you.

4. What is the name of the monster who doesn't shoot any projectiles, but will rush the player in a frenzied state?

Answer: Demon

Also commonly known as a "pinky", "bull demon", or "pig", the Demon is capable of doing large amounts of damage, especially if the player is stuck in a corner.

5. How many episodes did "DOOM" contain upon its release in 1993?

Answer: Three

The original release of "DOOM" contained a total of three episodes. On April 30, 1995, id Software released "The Ultimate DOOM", which contained a brand new episode called "Thy Flesh Consumed", alongside the original three episodes. "Thy Flesh Consumed" was also Tim Willits' first contribution to the original "DOOM". Willits bedcame the lead designer and co-owner of id Software.

6. What does the Health Potion do upon being picked up?

Answer: Grants the player 1% of health (if the player has under 200%)

The little blue potions are often littered around most maps, and contribute to the item percentage at the end of each map. So if you want 100% on each level, make sure to pick them up!

7. Who is the final boss of episode 3, "Inferno"?

Answer: Spider Mastermind

Often known as Spiderdemon, the Spider Mastermind is a hit-scan boss that rapidly fires at the player with no intention of missing. In "DOOM II: Hell on Earth", a new enemy is introduced, known as Arachnotron, who according to the "DOOM II: Hell on Earth" manual, are offspring to Spider Masterminds.

8. "DOOM" is the first FPS game id Software released.

Answer: False

Released in April, 1991, Hovertank 3D was the first ever FPS released by id Software. Whilst lesser-known that "DOOM", you can see the importance and major influence Hovertank 3D had on the development of "DOOM".

9. What is the name of episode 2?

Answer: The Shores of Hell

Whilst all maps within episode 2, "The Shores of Hell", are officially credited to Sandy Petersen, it was Tom Hall who actually started various maps within the episode.

10. What is the name of Doomguy's pet rabbit?

Answer: Daisy

Whilst it is not confirmed the name of Doomguy's rabbit to be Daisy at the end of "DOOM", it becomes known at the end of episode 4, "Thy Flesh Consumed", that Doomguy's decapitated pet rabbit is in fact, Daisy. Poor rabbit.
