Doom 64 is a reedition of Nintendo 64 FPS under the same title. The game was developed by id Software and published by Bethesda Softworks (the original was the work of Midway Games).
The action of Doom 64 takes place after the events presented in the first two installments of the Doom serie. After victorious battles against demons on the surface of Mars and Earth, mankind decided to deal with their nests on the moons of the Red Planet, Phobos and Deimos. The moons were bombarded with powerful ordnance, but the resulting radiation made it impossible for people to observe the results of the project, and thus to notice that a mysterious being survived the offensive, bringing back to life every undead and hellspawn it finds. After the operation, a group of soldiers is sent to the place, whose task is to deal with the threat. However, the unit is slaughtered, and the only survivor is the main protagonist of the game. From now on, the mission, on whose success depends the fate of humanity, rests on his shoulders.
In Doom 64, the action was shown from first-person perspective. The game consists of thirty-two extensive levels reminiscent of labyrinths. In addition to obtaining the keys and activating the switches opening closed ages, during our travels we eliminate hosts of terrifying enemies. Although the arsenal we use to kill enemies is well known from earlier Doomgames, the appearance of its individual elements has undergone profound changes (for example, a mechanical saw has two blades rather than one). New is the weapon known as the Laser (or Unmaker), which shares ammunition with the iconic BFG 9000; as we progress, we acquire three ancient artifacts that enable us to upgrade it significantly.
Compared to the original, the reedition of the game has not undergone any visual changes; the game has only been adapted to run in panoramic mode.

FPS series being one of the forerunners of the first-person shooter genre. The series was created by id Software studio and has, so to speak, three "fathers" - John Carmack, John Romero and Tom Hall. Nevertheless, over the years, teams such as Midway Games and Nerve Software have also been involved in its development. Although the series made its debut on personal computers, over time it began to make its presence increasingly clear also on consoles, as well as on mobile devices.

Game Ratings for Doom 64 Video Game.
Push Square: 7 / 10 by Graham Banas
Something that hasn’t aged quite as well are the shooting galleries. The enemy spawns feel too abundant on some levels, causing the gunplay to get a bit too monotonous. This is especially true on 'The Lost Levels' which are brand new bonus missions meant to connect “old” Doom to “new” Doom, but end up overstaying their welcome.
Cubed3: 5 / 10
DOOM 64 is considered a cult classic, meaning that the people who love it, really love it. The one writing this doesn't though. It is way too slow, tries to have a horror atmosphere (and almost succeeds), although it is in no way a horror game, and, most importantly, the level design is mediocre at best, as its more about flipping switches than killing demons. Those who loved the original will be glad to know that this a very good port, with FHD resolution and an improved frame-rate - just don't expect any new content.
Digitally ed: 3 / 5 by Matt Sainsbury
Doom 64 is an impressive port of the forgotten son of the series.
