Hell Revealed

Hell Revealed is a 32-level megawad for Doom II. It is possibly the best known example of an ultra-hard WAD, and has received the most attention by speedrunners of any PWAD. Hell Revealed was created by Yonatan Donner and Haggay Niv and released in May 1997.

The custom soundtrack was compiled from songs of Rise of the Triad that were written by and Robert Prince. Levels 20-26, 28 and 30 reuse the music from Doom II.

The megawad has a sequel, Hell Revealed II, which was released in late 2003.

Story
''You wake up with a pistol in your hand, 50 bullets and suddenly you appear to have visible health and armor. Apparently you were sent into an invaded lab experimenting in jumpgates by two mad WAD creators. Your mission is to go through the jumpgate and find out what your mission is, and, in addition, to finish all levels and send a letter of complaint to the madmen who sent you here.''
