Trivia

 * The Original Missions in its latest version claims it is based on Boom 2.02. This is however hard to verify: Boom 2.02 was released on October 22, 1998. The Original Missions's is from July 26, but the executable became available in December, after the release of Boom 2.02. This would not explain why the executables from Spear of Destiny and The Nocturnal Missions were released after Boom 2.02, but are Boom 2.01 based.
