GAME MECHANICS
Explore game mechanics
Browse possible checks, rewards and settings. What appears in your game depends on your World options.
The pinned APWorld defines 395 addressed locations across the 32 Plutonia maps. Episodes 1–3 are on by default and provide 365 checks: 30 exits with fixed completion events plus 335 ordinary randomized item slots. Episode 4 adds Cyberden and Go 2 It, 30 further locations, and is off by default. Congo, Speed and Slayer start precollected. The item table contributes 139 base copies before those three starts are precollected; 136 remain in the default pool. On Medium, the source ratios fill the 335 slots with 131 weighted helpful items, 20 random filler items and 48 junk items. Three one-attempt checks remain active but cannot hold progression unless Allow Death Logic is enabled. These counts follow the package tables and generator code; no seed or game session was run.

Playing with others
A solo Plutonia campaign per slot exchanges items through Archipelago. Participants can play together or in separate sessions while the room is available. This does not add native same-map co-op.
Known scope and limitations
- Use your own PLUTONIA.WAD. Steam's DOOM + DOOM II collection includes The Plutonia Experiment; the artwork and review count here represent that shared collection. This is a separate world from TNT and the original DOOM II campaign.
- Install final_doom_plutonia.apworld into both Archipelago's custom_worlds folder and APDoom's games folder. Generate a slot for Final DOOM (Plutonia), then select it in the APDoom launcher. Keep the APWorld intact: it includes the supplementary PlutoniaExtras.wad. The optional plutmidi.wad music pack is not required.
- Use the current APDoom 2.0 client with its July custom-world loading hotfix and Archipelago 0.6.3 or newer. The June world version is not the client version; do not follow the README's outdated beta download link.
- Prefer original DOS WAD data. The client detects supported Steam installs; otherwise put PLUTONIA.WAD beside APDoom. Rerelease WADs and unrelated gameplay modifications are not guaranteed compatible.
- Start from a fresh client directory and preserve old saves. Do not mix APDoom 1.2's 32-bit dependencies with version 2.0, or change a room's world package midway through a campaign without compatibility guidance.
- Keep Trick Difficulty at None, Allow Death Logic off and ammunition capacity at its defaults for a conservative setup. More demanding logic may require speedrunning techniques or resetting a map after a failed one-attempt puzzle.
- This review checked the package hash, manifest, campaign settings and shared generator rules, not a complete playthrough. Windows and Linux/AppImage, including Steam Deck, are documented client platforms. This does not establish same-map co-op or certify every dependency.
