While you were battling the evil forces of D'Sparil, the other Serpent Riders were busy sowing the seeds of destruction in other dimensions. One such dimension is the decaying world where Hexen takes place. A world littered with the mangled corpses of nonbelievers and inhabited by the undead followers that executed them. Only three humans &endash; a warrior, a mage and a cleric &endash; have escaped the leaders' vicious spell. Now these brave souls have sworn to crush the evil regime that threatens to destroy the world forever. Separated upon entering the mystical portal, the three are forced to attempt on their own what they had hoped to do together: find Korax's stronghold, destroy him and restore order in the physical world.
This game is so fantastic - supercedes any other fantasy setting with ease
and now even such a great botmatch mod which is the KORAX ARENA - outstanding!!!

awesome game
Best medieval themed game ever
Hexen is a very atmospheric and dark Fantasy/FPS-game. As you fight your way through with melee weapons or magic you will encounter deadly enemies and solve confusing puzzles. You also have an inventory which is used to store various items for later use. The world is much more mature and realistic
than Heretic's and everything feels more alive with blowing leaves, foggy swamps and
environmental ambient sound.
However, there is a minor drawback. And that is the lack of weapons per class compared to Doom or Heretic.
Overall, Hexen is still a true gem from the 90's gaming era.
(The game was played through GZDOOM engine v2.1.0 using HEXEN.wad v1.1)
Ah, the hexen... nothing about heretic, but a good game indeed. the 3 options player is a wellcome addon from heretic and, i must add, i miss Corvus working here. maybe i´m becomming old (and I do for a long time) but this kind of games, the old school, is better than the overresouced new shooters of today.
I love this game, and I always have since 1996. No other justification is needed. *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** a s s a s s a s s a s s a s s *** *** *** *** *** ***.
