How it feels

A tense, atmospheric shooter where you are hunted through a dark, claustrophobic Mars base by demonic monsters, relying on flashlights and heavy weaponry to survive.

What players say

Opinion on Doom 3 is split: players either love its slow survival horror style or dislike that it abandons the series' fast action. The separate flashlight mechanic is a point of tension, and many call it a cult classic or a proto-Dead Space rather than a true Doom game.
