==Overview==
{{Header Nav|game=Doom}}
In '''Doom''', the [[archetype|archetypical]] first person shooter, players navigate various [[Doom episodes and levels|levels]]. Along the way to the exit, they will encounter ''[[monster]]s''. To assist them in defeating the enemies, they will find ''[[weapon]]s'' and ''[[powerup]]s''. Players may also need to find switches and/or keys to finish a level.
In addition to weapons, you need to find powerups to assist you in defeating the [[../Monsters|monsters]]. You might also need to find switches and/or keys to finish a level.
 
At the completion of each level, one is rated on ''kills'' (the percentage of the monsters on the level that were killed), ''items'' (the percentage of certain powerups that the player picked up), and ''secret'' (the percentage of certain hidden areas the player visited). The player's completion ''time'' (in minutes and seconds) is shown, along with the author-determined ''par'' time.
 
Multiplayer has two modes. In [[deathmatch]] mode, players use their weapons against other players. In [[Co-operative]], players work together to beat the levels.
 
==Monsters==
In the following table, '''Spawn Health''' indicates how much weapon fire is required to kill each monster (in [[hit point]]s), and '''Version''' refers to the game version the monster first appears in:
*S - Shareware version (''Doom'' Episode 1)
*R - Registered/Ultimate version (''Doom'' Episodes 2-4)
*2 - ''[[Doom II]]''

Cyberdemons and Spider Masterminds take only the direct hit damage from a rocket (average 90 HP), not the additional blast damage (average 128 HP) that other monsters suffer.

==Scoring anomalies==
* Kills may exceed 100% if the level contains an [[List of enemies in Doom#Arch-Vile|Arch-Vile]] monster. The Arch-Vile can resurrect dead monsters, and the game gives credit for each time they are killed. In newer versions of the games, Lost Souls are not counted in the kill percentage. In older versions of Doom 2, killing Lost Souls spawned by Pain Elementals could increase the kill percentage above 100%
* If the game shows ''secret 0%'' it means either that none of the secret areas were found, or that the level contains no secret areas at all. Nearly all the levels supplied by [[id Software]] contain secret areas, but it is more common to find user-created levels that do not.
