Hexen

It was originally supposed to be a sequel to Heretic, but Hexen turned out to be an independent game, though set in the same universe. They tought the Doom engine a few new tricks, like dead leaves blowing in the wind, there is more interaction with the environment, albeit restricted to destruction. The legacy of Black Crypt is felt stronger in Hexen. You can choose between three character classes (Fighter, Mage, Cleric), puzzles are tougher and more important for gameplay.
