About :
Heretic and Hexen are two seminal first-person shooters that defined the fantasy subgenre of the mid-90s, built on an enhanced version of the legendary DOOM engine. Players take on the role of heroes fighting the malevolent Serpent Riders across dark, imaginative realms, blending fast-paced shooting with magical inventory management.
In Heretic (1994), you embody Corvus, the last of the Sidhe elves, seeking vengeance against D'Sparil, the first of the Serpent Riders, who has ravaged the world of Parthoris. Hexen: Beyond Heretic (1995) introduces a groundbreaking class-based system, allowing you to choose between the swift Warrior, the versatile Cleric, or the powerful Mage to combat the second Serpent Rider, Korax. Hexen is particularly noted for its complex, interconnected hub-world levels—a major advancement over the linear design of contemporary shooters. Both titles offer a unique magical arsenal, destructive artifacts like the Tome of Power, and a deep, dark fantasy atmosphere.
