        It was sort of an early example of "make more out of less"
        
        The engine is literally a souped up derivation of the Wolfenstein 3-D engine, which is why all the walls are 90-degrees. It came out competing with DOOM and DOOM ][ but graphically speaking it didn't hold a candle to either of those.
        
        But the multiplayer was insane. They had "Capture the Triad" years before Zoid made his Quake 1 mod. They had tons of modes when most games had just one.
        
        Sort of like how graphically UT was inferior to Q3A but made up for it in terms of amount of content and number of modes.
