Doom II.pdf

Welcome to DOOM II , a lightning-fast virtual reality adventure where you are the toughest space

trooper ever to suck vacuum. Your mission is to fight your way though the demon-infested earth

in the hopes of saving the Earth from an eternity in Hell.

The gameplay for DOOM II is simple. This isn't a cumbersome adventure game, but an action-

oriented slugathon. To survive all you need is brains and a killer instinct.

The Story Continues...

DOOM II: Hell on Earth

Back at last. After days of hard fighting in space, you've returned home on well-earned

leave. You're one of Earth's crack soldiers, hard-bitten, tough, and heavily-armed. When

the alien invasion struck Mars, you were the first on the scene. By killing, killing, and

illing, you won. You stopped the invasion, saved Mars base, and became a war hero.

What they don't talk about so much is that you were the only survivor.

But that's all behind you now. You've quit the military, and are heading home. Your drop pod

lands with a crunch. You open 'er up, and look out. Damn! The city ahead is on fire. What the

devil is going on? You stagger forward, clutching at your sidearm. Packs of refugees are fleeing

the flaming metropolis. A band of them shriek in terror. You squint. What's that? Someone is

attacking the refugees. You rush up and blast away, killing the troublemaker. It looks like a

human, but something's wrong. His mouth is filled with half-chewed flesh, and he's all messed up,

like a zombie from a bad horror movie. Hell, not again!

You can feel it. It's all starting again, just like on Mars. First, people are taken over, turned into

cannibal Things. Then the real horror starts, the deformed monstrosities from Outside. But now

it's on Earth.

It turns out that the invaders are all over. Monsters range from Tokyo to Timbuktu, from

Stockholm to Scranton. Billions are dead. Some people have been transformed into flesh-eating

mutants, but a few, a very few, are still alive and fully human. The wise men of humanity have

evolved a plan to save what's left of the human race. They have built enormous ships to carry the

remaining people into space, safely away from the ruined world.

Unfortunately, Earth's only ground spaceport has just been taken over by the demons.

They've instituted a sort of force field a flame barrier over the port; no ships can land or

take off. You gotta go back into action. The pathetic remnants of Earth's soldiers are making

an assault on the invaders at the spaceport. If you win, you might be able to turn off the

barrier, so that the ships can leave, and Homo sapiens may not go extinct just yet. If you

lose, that's it. Humanity is history.

You and your comrades make their attack. Soon, brave men drop like flies. You lose track of your

friends, though sometimes you can hear them scream when they die, and the sounds of combat

echo from deep within the starbase.

Something hisses with rage from the steel tunnels ahead. They know you're here. They have no

pity, no mercy, take no quarter, and crave none. They're the perfect enemy, in a way. No one's

left but you. You... and Them.
