Necrodome is a 1996 first-person vehicular combat game developed by Raven Software and published by Strategic Simulations.[2] It supports online multiplayer matches.[3] This includes cooperative multiplayer in which one player drives the vehicle and the other controls its turret.[4] The game offers arena based car combat, first person driving, and the ability to exit the vehicle and do battle on foot. When on foot, the player has access to a tribarrel shotgun and the ability to hijack damaged opponents. The score was composed by Kevin Schilder.[citation needed]
Reception
[edit]Reviewers decried the game's lack of originality, but offered some praise for its multiplayer mode.[3][6] GameSpot said, "If you're starved for more vehicular shooter action then you might want to try this title out." They awarded this game a score of 5.4 (mediocre).[7]
