Catacomb 3-D: Difference between revisions

The games in the ''Catacomb Fantasy Trilogy'' -- ''Catacomb Abyss'', ''Catacomb Armageddon'' and ''Catacomb Apocalypse'' -- were among the first 3D [[First-Person Shooter|first person shooters]] (in 1991). Using and developing the idea and tehnology of the earlier ''Catacomb 3-D'', they are also an obvious predecessor to the more popular ''[[Wolfenstein 3D (Video Game)|Wolfenstein 3D]]''. For those who know ''Wolfenstein'', these games are every similar; levels made up of corridors and rooms created with large box-like tiles, sprite enemies, and rather large pixels everywhere. But here, instead of [[Those Wacky Nazis]], you fight a large assortment of fantasy creatures, and instead of using guns, you shoot "magick missiles" from your hand. The levels are also rather smaller and simpler, enemies have only a front side, and the difficulty level is much lower.
