Doom started off as a first person shooter created by id Software in 1993 as a followup to their earlier shooter Wolfenstein 3-D. The premise was relatively simple: the Union Aerospace Corporation, a giant Mega-Corp, has been conducting experiments on interdimensional teleportation between a nuclear waste facility on Phobos, a moon of Mars, and another base on Deimos, Mars's other moon when something goes horribly wrong, leading Deimos to entirely disappear and the teleporter to open a portal to Hell. As in actual, demon-infested Hell. The player takes the role of "Doomguy", the last survivor of a squad of marines sent to clean up the mess.It became a huge hit, codifying the First-Person Shooter genre and setting in motion a expansive franchise. It got a sequel the next year and another in 1997, followed by several alternate ports and variations of the first two. A fourth game rebooted the series to take a more traditional horror tone (and take place on Mars itself), while a fifth game quasi-un-rebooted it (setting the first three games as canon in Broad Strokes), and a sixth game taking a step further and flat-out Canon Welding everything together.Adaptations in other media include a over-the-top comic book, a set of novels based on first game that diverged somewhat from the (admittedly limited) canon, another pair of novels based on the third game, a 2005 film starring The Rock and Karl Urban, a virtual pinball table and even a board game.
