WTF?! Most of us know the feeling of being faced with a CAPTCHA so irritating that we close the page. Wouldn’t it be great if these tests that separate robots from humans didn’t involve deciphering blurry words or selecting squares containing buses/fire hydrants/signs etc., but were actually something fun, like playing a tiny game of Doom? One developer has taken up that challenge, and it’s certainly an improvement.
Miquel Camps Orteza created the aptly named DOOM CAPTCHA (try it below) and posted it to his Github page. This isn’t Doom as seen on PC, or the hundreds of other devices id Software’s FPS has been made to run on, but a still screen that tasks you with taking out four Doom imps using crosshairs within the allotted time.

Anyway, those boring days are behind us, because
Miquel s latest project is the DOOM CAPTCHA, which much like one of those ads for tower defense mobile games requires you to kill enemies in order to proceed. Everyone knows that bots are bad at shooting, so it s foolproof, right?
