There are also multiplayer levels! The number of improvements and additions to this engine is really quite amazing.

Explosive weapons can blast enemies into giblets (gibs), and characters are more lifelike, sometimes begging for mercy. Whereas Wolf3D was flat, ROTT truly entered the third dimension by adding height: it was now possible to move up and down! Players can fall or be launched into the air, the environment displays damage (bullet holes), and the graphics and sound are a step up. Based on a heavily modified Wolfenstein 3D engine, Rise of the Triad adds a number of new features, and was originally planned as a sequel.
