Overview
Description

Extreme: Rise of the Triad (EROTT) is an add‑on pack released in 1995 that expands the original Rise of the Triad: Dark War with 42 new, ultra‑challenging levels. Designed by Joe Siegler and Tom Hall, the pack adds fresh tricks, traps, and intense action for both solo and multiplayer play. This classic shooter retains the fast‑paced, arena‑style combat of its predecessor while pushing difficulty to the extreme. It remains a nostalgic title for fans of retro first‑person shooters looking for a serious test of skill.

Wanton Destruction is a free add‑on for the classic first‑person shooter Shadow Warrior, released on September 9, 2005. It picks up where the original left off, delivering new levels, weapons, and enemies for Lo Wang's relentless quest. The pack supports both single‑player and multiplayer modes, runs on Linux, PC, and Mac, and retains the series' signature over‑the‑top action and humor. Developed by General Arcade and Sunstorm Interactive, it was published by 3D Realms and Devolver Digital.
