R-Comp Interactive (RCI) is pleased to announce the availability of
the two best selling 3D arcade/fantasy games, Heretic and Hexen,
together in a double pack alongside the official Hexen expansion
pack - Deathkings of the Dark Citadel.

Both games use massively modified versions of the Doom engine, adding
the ability to look up and down, to fly and to jump. Water and lava
flow, complete with currents and waterfalls (and lava-falls!).
Both games feature puzzle elements and an inventory system for holding
and using items. Hexen introduces 3 character classes, each with
different skills and abilities, as well as a multitude of special
graphical effects, such as fog, swamp mists, transparent floors,
interactive scenery, collapsing walkways, and even "random" elements
that change every time you play!

The Acorn versions of both games are based on the Doom+ engine to
provide the best possible performance and graphics extensions,
although even this needed to be massively extended to accomodate
all the new things in these games.

We've also included serial, modem and LAN drivers for the games
so that you can play against your friends. Hexen can be played
against a PC as well! Both games have a multitude of deathmatch
"extras" including the Morph Ovum (turn your opponents into
chickens!) and the Porkulator ("Here little piggy...!").

Both games allow the use of downloaded extra levels designed for
the PC versions.

CD audio is provided thanks to the supplied music tracks on the
game CD.

The pack consists of a CD holding the game data, and music, plus
3 floppy discs, one containing the Heretic player, one the Hexen
player, and the 3rd containing the Deathkings expansion pack,
which is upgraded beyond that on the CD with additional Deathmatch
levels!

The price for this little bundle of joy is 32.50ukp and you can
order it now from all good dealers, or from RCI direct at the
following address:
