Wolfenstein 3D was originally released as shareware, which allowed it to be copied widely. The shareware release contained 1 episode, consisting of 10 missions (levels). The commercial release consisted of 6 episodes, including the shareware episode. Each episode had a different "boss" which had to be killed in the final mission in order to complete the episode. In order to complete an episode, only 9 of the 10 missions needed to be completed. Hidden in one of the first eight missions was an entrance to a secret level. An expansion pack, Spear Of Destiny, was also released. |
