It’s DOOM again.
Foreign players seem to have a strange obsession with “making DOOM run on any device with a screen”. We have reported many times in the past that players have transplanted the game into electronic pregnancy test sticks, ATM withdrawals models, and even a case in a GIF animation:

Not long ago, there was even a hacker who transplanted “DOOM” into the McDonald’s ordering machine screen:
Of course, you may also need a healthy cervical spine to play DOOM here.
Recently, foreign fans have done a new job – “reverse porting”, successfully porting “DOOM RPG”, which originally only appeared on the mobile platform, to the PC.
Yes, although the DOOM series mostly appeared on the console or PC platform, in 2005, a game called “DOOM RPG” did land on the mobile platform at that time.
Just like its name “DOOM RPG”, this mobile game has changed the usual first-person design style of the DOOM series, but has become a turn-based game with RPG elements. In order to adapt to the operating system of the mobile phone at that time, the game was designed as an operation mode that can only be rotated at a 90-degree angle.
But like many games on mobile phones at that time, “DOOM RPG” was limited to the mobile platform. Due to system, copyright, popularity and many other reasons, even the developers themselves never had the idea of porting the game to other platforms. This RPG version of Doom, most people can only feel its charm from the descriptions of past players.
Recently, GEC, a foreign development team that is good at data mining, announced that it had successfully ported the 17-year-old “DOOM RPG” to the PC operating system.
In fact, as they say, any player can now download this special emulator made just for the game on DOOM’s player forum. It’s just that the author mentioned in the post: “Although they have developed an emulator that can run the game on the computer, they cannot provide the complete game file due to copyright issues.”
So if you really want to run the game on your computer, you may also need to prepare an old-fashioned mobile phone with the game installed, or download the corresponding resources from the Internet Archive (Internet Archive), a website dedicated to “remains of the Internet”.
Other games in the DOOM series have already had transplanted versions on countless “platforms”. Compared with them, “DOOM RPG” is the first time to leave the mobile phone and have its own “transplanted work”, which is different from the ones that appeared in ATM machines and pregnancy test sticks. Like the games in , it’s all thanks to those imaginative tech nerds.
