This Info-Mac upload is the fan-made Macintosh port of id Software's Spear of Destiny, the Wolfenstein 3D prequel that MacPlay never officially shipped. Laz Rojas converted all 21 levels of the DOS original so they run inside an existing Mac copy of Wolfenstein 3D.
What it is
After Wolfenstein 3D's runaway success, id released Spear of Destiny as a standalone follow-up in 1992. The Mac edition of Wolfenstein 3D appeared via MacPlay, but Spear of Destiny was never given a commercial Mac port. This package fills that gap as an unofficial, free conversion.
Requirements
The download bundles only the 21-level scenario data. You must already own and have installed the full retail version of Wolfenstein 3D for Macintosh, which the converted levels piggyback on for the engine, weapons, and sprite assets.
Author
The conversion is the work of Laz Rojas, a prolific Wolfenstein 3D scenario author of the late 1990s whose Wolfenstein page (hosted on GeoCities at TimesSquare/3744) collected dozens of fan maps. The Info-Mac upload was contributed by copperfield@worldnet.att.net.
Distribution
Distributed as freeware through Info-Mac in the game/com/wolf category alongside other Wolfenstein 3D add-ons. Because it depends on the commercial engine, it is not a standalone game.
