    The gameplay is praised as an impressive prequel that, while not as intense as Doom (2016) or Doom Eternal, successfully contributes to the trilogy's legacy. Players appreciate the potential for future remakes of classic titles within the gameplay framework, indicating a strong foundation for creativity and nostalgia.

    • “Absolute masterpiece for a prequel. It's not as badass as Doom (2016) or Doom Eternal when it comes to gameplay, but for this to precede Doom (2016), it's an awesome trilogy.”
    • “I haven’t tried to alter the gameplay, so I can’t say that you could remake classic Doom (you definitely can in environments and music). Someone in the future may be able to make the dark ages in Doom Eternal or a remake of Heretic or Hexen, remake Quake, remake Blood, remake Duke Nukem, remake Dusk, etc. 9.5/10.”
    • “The gameplay feels repetitive and lacks the innovation seen in other titles in the genre.”
    • “I found the controls to be clunky and unresponsive, which really detracted from the overall experience.”
    • “The level design is uninspired, making it hard to stay engaged with the gameplay.”
