Necrodome is a 1996 first-person vehicular combat game developed by Raven Software and published by Strategic Simulations.[2] It supports online multiplayer matches.[3] This includes cooperative multiplayer in which one player drives the vehicle and the other controls its turret.[4] The game offers arena based car combat, first person driving, and the ability to exit the vehicle and do battle on foot. When on foot, the player has access to a tribarrel shotgun and the ability to hijack damaged opponents. The score was composed by Kevin Schilder.[citation needed]
