Continued:
Terminal Terror is apparently an anti-terror themed game where you have to worry not to shoot civilians or friendlies? Sounds interesting.
In Extremis is apparently sci-fi horror themed where you're sent on an alien-infested space station, and it's supposedly puzzle heavy? After looking at screenshots, it looks fucking amazing.
Fortress of Dr Radiaki is described, I quote:
>'knife-in-tongue, tongue-in-cheek action game that's as fun as it is funny. Radiaki puts you in a 30-level maze and gives you opportunity to bash a Fidel Castro lookalike and tangle with a high-rent incarnation or Rosie the Robot"
That tells me absolutely nothing. We complain about modern game journalism, but damn, this is fucking useless.
Finally, weirdest one is BrainDead 13 which is described as a 'comedy horror'? That's definitely an unusual combination. Well, except... it's apparently not a FPP game. It's a Laserdisc interactive movie. Perhaps back in 1994 it was planned to be an FPS? Or perhaps gaming journalists are fucking useless.

Funnily enough, "Ruins" is apparently an Apogee game... that was eventually retooled into what we now know was PowerSlave. Isn't history funny?

Also, the article (https://archive.org/stream/ElectronicEntertainment12Dec1994/Electronic_Entertainment_12_Dec_1994#page/n58/mode/1up)) mentions some notable Doom mods back from 1994. These are:
>Star Wars 2
>Alien Doom (I mean, DUH)
>Yak World
>JL3
>Laura Beyer Demo: Is This House Haunted?
