                         Video Cirrus VGA, 1 meg video RAM, Sound 144AM (no sound card for FREE.LMP)

Controls used           : Keyboard

Free interpretation     : E2M2 Tyson-style, E2M3; only 1 pistol shot used in E2M2 to wake up a Demon - the rest is fist and chain-saw until E2M3 when I used heavier stuff to get at monsters behind bars - then I die trying to chain-saw a Baron.  I get off to a bad start, and at several points my health goes below 20%, but I always manage to come back.

Comments                :  Main excitement is in E3M5, where I do in a Baron with a pistol and take on the three Cacodemons in the center courtyard with the same weapon.  Some nice chain-saw work on Imps, too.  It's OK stuff for a keyboard-only man.

Author info             :  I'm a biology professor with an obsession for DooM - too many late nights playing DooM while the rest of the family sleeps and I should be working on a lecture or sleeping!  I'm also a marine combat vet of Vietnam.  One of my DooMed friends thinks this game is like the real thing - it's not.  It is a hell of a fun game.
