It seems that the gaming community's new-found obsession with making Doom the most accessible game across several devices has no end, with the newest platform being Minecraft.

However, it is isn't as simple or rudimentary as simply making a Doom-like mini-game within Minecraft. Nay, this is a full-fledged PC that runs Windows 93 and can run basic apps such as Notepad and MS-Paint.

We could say that there have been several more wondrous things that have been built in Minecraft but there are few that are as impressive as this. Albeit a little overboard, when it comes to making Doom available on "everything", the gaming community isn't messing around.

While you could play Doom within Minecraft using a Virtual PC that you must build by yourself, you can also play Doom on an ATM machine, an oven and it gets weirder as you go down that rabbit hole.
