Rest assured, all imagery and advice is unique and original. Check out how we test and review games here Id Software’s original DOOM games are still some of the most satisfying FPS games ever made. To this day, nothing feels better than chucking a slug into the Super Shotgun and blasting through the Cacodemon’s still-confusing rear ports. Nevertheless, DOOM modders are constantly tinkering away to force the original Doom Guy—now known as the Slayer—to do things other than firing through hordes of demons. Following the terrifying MyHouse.wad, one modder has created the scariest mod yet: a McDonalds Simulator. Doom Guy goes to McDonalds Created by modder SlendyMawn, the “Put the Fries in the Bag Mod” curses the 90s FPS hero to work forever in a McDonalds restaurant. As you stand behind the counter, the constant beeps and chirps of fryers, grills and service tills replaces the expected music to fill you with an instant sense of dread. As you continue to work, classic DOOM enemies and marines will come into the restaurant to order food which you then give them with a series of clicks. Sometimes, a demon might enter, run all the way up the cashier’s till, and ask to use the bathroom. (Existing in the outside world tip: every McDonalds is too busy to notice if you go to the bathroom—you don’t need to ask.) As we all know, demons are not the most friendly creatures, and they will punish you for screwing up their order, as well as for being too slow. If you take too long, they’ll shout “Hurry the Hell up”, which is fitting. If you mess up their order, they might simply storm away with anger or summon an Arch-vile to burn you alive—which is how I expect fast food service to work in America. At the end of the day, the new DOOM mod is yet another example of Id Software’s shooter living forever. DOOM is now 31 years old and yet “just put the fires in the bag” is a phrase that’s only become a common saying in the last year-or-so. DOOM is eternal—not the one—and despite being older than the people creating most memes these days, it always finds a way to adapt them. Of course, the series isn’t just kept alive by the talented and passionate modding community. DOOM: The Dark Ages is set to release on May 13, 2025. With an open-ending designed to create even more medieval-style games, this could be a new future for the iconic franchise. Subscribe to our newsletters!
