SymbOS - A rather impressive Z80 multitasking operating system gets a new release

Doom was never officially released on the Amstrad, nor was it released on any other system of that time. Doom was just way beyond in computer development. Thankfully if you have the latest version of SymbOS however which has just been released for the MSX, Amstrad CPC, Enterprise and PCW. You can not only play the latest 8bit version of Doom converted by Prodatron, but many other games such as Sakoban, 2048 and yes even Flappy Bird via this graphically impressive Z80 operating system.

Doom on SymbOS - First test on real 4MHz 8bit hardware

Doom was never officially released on the Amstrad, nor was it released on any other system of that time. Doom was just way beyond in computer development. Thankfully if you have a SymbOS however, which is available for your Amstrad CPC, MSX, Amstrad PCW and Enterprise 64/128, you'll soon be able to play Doom. A CPC conversion from Prodatron, original Port for MSX2, and also based on the version written in the 90's by fans for TI-8x calculators, which also use a Z80.
