Prayers of Armageddon is a Doom II megawad created by Santtu Pesonen (MFG38). It includes 33 new maps, one of which is a bonus map only accessible by means of warping to it. All the levels for the megawad were created entirely by Pesonen.
Originally Pesonen worked on Prayers of Armageddon in January 2009. The project froze just the next month due to major technical problems. The project was revived in January 2010 and released on September 24th, 2010. A bugfix version was released a month later.
Prayers of Armageddon requires use of a limit-removing source port. A ZDoom-family port is recommended for two reasons:
- The WAD does not come with a DeHackEd patch, instead opting to use the ZDoom-specific MAPINFO lump for custom map names.
- Playing the WAD in a non-ZDoom port may present bugs, e.g. making some secrets unobtainable. At worst, some maps are completely unplayable due to misplaced line specials and sectors missing tags.
