Nearly every PC user that’s been around for awhile remembers the shoot-em-up joy that was Doom. Now it’s been ported to the iPhone, and is available in Cydia if you have jailbroken your iPhone. It should be noted that the port is of the shareware version of Doom.

When you open the application, you will come to a screen where you will need to tap Play. This will bring you into the game. The controls are on the screen. You can use the arrows to move the direction the arrow is pointing. Yes, there are two right arrows and yes, they do the same thing…move your guy to the right. To shoot, use the gun button in the upper right. To walk, just tilt your iPhone back. To stop walking, tilt your iPhone forward. The Open button is what you use to open doors. This really brings the action and movement of the game home, more so than the controls of the PC version.

If you have own Doom, you can play the commercial versions of it on your iPhone or iPod Touch. Just put the doom1.wad or doom2.wad files into the Applications/Doom.app folder on your iPhone or iPod Touch, and it’ll work fine.
