Q: We've all heard of the Doom of Mandos, but what was Mandos's Doom?

"Mandos's Doom" was the first version of the first-person shooter game "Doom". It is completely for MS-DOS. The game became rather popular between, funnily enough, the friends of Albert Mity, the real designer, who was a Tolkien fan himself. Unlike in the latter versions, the goal of the original was to break into the Halls of Mandos and fight your way through the dead Elves and eventually battle Mandos himself.

Q: What is the most popular video-game in Middle-earth?
