And even if the actual companies didn't make expansions, 3rd party companies like WizardWorks and HeadGames sure did. With things like D!Zone and Q!Zone for Doom and Quake, DUKE!Zone for Duke Nukem 3D, S!Zone for *checks notes* SIMCITY!?, and expansions like Duke it out in D.C. and Life's a Beach

There's also Hell to Pay, which is a fair bit tackier (the monster replacements.........) and hasn't been rendered freeware by its author, but was also published by WizardWorks

Blitzen’s banter reminds me of the Deer Avenger games. Which were a corny response to the popularity of the Deer Hunter games by Wizardworks, but worth it for the animated cutscenes.

True, but I think publishing powerhouse WizardWorks' provocative expansions left a much more stirring impression!
You just cant expect the same level of quality anymore, sad to say :(

Introduce yourself with four games.
I ended up picking four series that were pretty influential when I was in high school on my Commodore 64. It was my first computer and these series laid the foundation for so many of the games I enjoy today.
