End of Classic Doom map Phobos Anomaly (original) (raw)

Player death at the end of level E1M8, Phobos Anomaly:

After the player kills the two Barons of Hell at the end of E1M8, the walls of the star-shaped room drop, allowing access to an outside teleporter. This teleporter transports the player to a small, dark room with a green-acid floor, and the player is surrounded by monsters. Here, the player character appears to be killed before the end of the Episode.

For better or worse, this is the NORMAL ending for this Episode of Doom 1 and Ultimate Doom. This is true both for the shareware version, and the full, commercial version.

Short of quitting the game, or using cheat codes, there is no other way to exit the level successfully.
