Some were utter dross, aping nearly everything about the iconic shooter franchise and doing little to innovate, Heretic however was not such a case, maintaining that blistering speed and chaos, but this time equipping the player with magical items and spells in order to battle deamons and other mythological nightmares.

However while it's all very grim and death metal-y in the main game, there are a few choice weapons that are utterly hilarious, and the Morph Ovum is just that. Picking up one of these glowing mystical eggs of power means that you now have access to a weapon that will turn enemies into harmless chickens and then obliterate them with ease.
