Heretic was the first game to use the Doom engine outside of id. Produced by John Romero in cooperation of Raven Software, Heretic promises to be a great fantasy blastfest in a package! Fight off Gargoyles, Golems, Wraiths and Weredragons with your Dragonclaw, Phoenix rod, Hellstaff and Firemace! This game also introduces a new item system that's become a general must for most games, using with the familiar bracket keys. Items include Wings of Wrath, Polymorph Egg, Chaos Device, Disc of Repulsion, and everyone's favorite Tome of Power, that supercharges your weapons!
The Wait is over. If you are a fan of the Diablo Series games, Check out this Classic Doom clone heretic and its Total Conversion mod Diablo3D. This brings the atmosphere of the diablo series to classic FPS style. Stroll through the Tombs of Tal Rasha, or the Traverse the River of Flame in first person.

Unknowing to everyone Malthael created a being to So terrifying that no angel can control, while Malthael flees to exile upon creation of the of The Realmwalker and its corruption by an unyet discovered prime evil, Its up to other angels and the hero to stop the Unmaker from forming holy undead army to destroy all mankind.
