I've played SMMU in text mode, http://www.soulsphere.org/projects/smmu/textdoom/ although I seem to recall it doesn't work on Windows XP. (Don't quote me on that.) It's just straight DOOM that happens to be rendered in aalib. I don't think SMMU is what you're talking about, but it's hard to tell. I've also played Kornel Kisielewicz's DoomRL, a roguelike game based on DOOM. It's great. (And of course it's in ASCII.) http://doom.chaosforge.org/ And I've never played "Foom!", described as "the first level of Doom as a text adventure", but I'll have to give it a try this weekend. :) http://wurb.com/if/game/91 Anyway, none of these really qualify as ASCII art... although I think DoomRL has some ASCII art of various monsters on their description screens. -Arthur
