Fifteen years ago, if someone were to have told me that id Software was working on a turn-based role-playing mobile phone game, set in the Doom universe, I would laughed. What ridiculous notions — playing videogames on a phone, and a turn-based Doom RPG! Hah!

As it turns out, the future is a strange place, and not only was there a turn-based Doom RPG for mobile phones, but it was — gasp — actually pretty good.
