FEATURES
Retro look, modern era
Shooters past and present collide with graphics that combine today’s high-quality 3D tech with retro visuals. Experience over-the-top explosions of lo-fi pixels and hi-tech particle effects as you clash against the Prodeans and forces of Chaos.
Pure retro FPS chaos
Steel yourself for fast and frantic nonstop action. Blast and blaze your way through hordes of chaos-spawned creatures using an arsenal of classically over-the-top weapons.
Raining red
Splatter the steel walls and alien halls with the blood of your enemies. Experience the gory thrills of the elder shooters, dialed up to 11 thanks to Prodeus’s delightfully demented dismemberment system.
Community-crafted levels
Unleash your inner map designer with Prodeus’s powerful but easy-to-use level editor, and keep the visceral combat fresh with a built-in browser filled with community-created maps.
Multiplayer Mayhem
Team up and go head-to-head in a variety of multiplayer modes. Take on the campaign in 4-player co-op, and dive into the fray in 16-player Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, CTF, and more—then take things to the next level by creating and sharing custom game modes.
Frag to the Music
Burst blood vessels listening to a supercharged metal soundtrack by retro FPS composer Andrew Hulshult that dynamically changes gears to accompany your actions.

Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
Okay, so this will be a short one: You like DooM & DooM II? Do you like Brutal DooM? If you answered yes in these questions just go buy this right now. It's the game you want. Lots of difficulty levels so everyone can enjoy it, challenges, extra online maps (thank you community!) with a built in editor, plus all the potential you can think of. This "early access" can put many commercial titles to the shame. All your favourites are here and yes, there is an on purpose homage to the classics, but hey, the team wears their influences on the sleeve and you can feel the love that has been poured in the game. Also music by Andrew Hultshult. Just go buy this thing, now.
I think this is a somewhat unpopular opinion, but Prodeus never really clicked with me. Don't get me wrong, it is a good game - but it's not amazing or outstanding
What I do like:
- The graphics. This game just looks really good in my eyes and the gore is really neat.
- The weapons. Basically what you would expect from a Doom-like shooter. They pack a punch and feel good to use.
- The map-editor. Things like that are always very welcome in my book, even though I have not really used the one in Prodeus
- I remember liking most of the levels. They were interesting to explore and varied from one another.
What was meh:
- Variety of enemies. Honestly, I felt like the variety of enemies was just a bit too underwhelming and they never really posed any danger. Usually there is only 1 or 2 types present at the same time and you just shoot them, there seems to be little tactics or thinking involved, like prioritizing a certain type of enemy. Also I really hated that in the later parts of the game most enemies were just buffed up in terms of how much damage they could take - but they are still as unthreatening as before.
- The music. Honestly, I just felt the music was somewhat weak and not very memorable. There was not much variation overall.
- I did not like the concept of the store you have to visit to upgrade your guns and buy new equipment. Just let me do it at the start and / or end of a mission and don't make me visit a certain spot on the world map.
Personally I never really resonated with this game. In my humble opinion DOOM 2016 is a better choice to sink your teeth into.
The game requires creating a separate ProNet account, but for unknown reasons, when trying to create an account, an error appears and it is impossible.
... would have saved me the disappointment of Doom TDA.
Absolutely great game if you dig the original Doom games. Lots of additional (user generated maps available. Integrated level editor.
Sheesh. This rocks :D
