This article is a list of known commercial compilations of PWADs, shareware programs, level editors, and other utilities, which were popular in the early to mid-1990's as a result of the scarcity and cost of home Internet connections. Some of the more notable of these collections have their own articles which are linked by the compilation's name. Many of these discs can be downloaded from the Internet (see the links below). A gallery of cover art and media for these and other items can be found at shovelware cover art.
Explanation
- No. PWADs: This may be an approximation or a number created by the publisher for marketing purposes. The actual number of PWAD files and levels may vary significantly.
- Extras: Known to include level editors, other utilities, custom graphics or sounds, FAQs and editing guides, and other bonuses.
- Exclusives: Known to include exclusive content (PWADs, IWADs, or game resources) created by or for the publisher.
- Shareware: Known to include the shareware version of Doom or Heretic.

- ↑ Collection of various game shareware, info and add-on files targeted to BBS operators. Includes dedicated Doom and Doom 2 directories as well as a scattering of Doom and Heretic related files in the DOS games directories.
- ↑ Also published as Hank Leukart's Hacker's Guide to Doom.
- ↑ H!ZONE includes twelve custom exclusive episodes.
- ↑ This is a release of the 3D Game Alchemy book and disc in packaging resembling a game box. Often also referred to as Instant Doom Levels.
