Qu......ke is a commercial add-on for Quake published by KröGer Software. This add-on was released on September 10, 1996.
Like many id Software based shovelware releases in Germany, the Quake name had to be censored due to it being on the The List of Media Harmful to Young People. It was included as part of Universe of Levels: Das Ultimative Add-On Ereignis! alongside packs for other games.
Levels
Main Article: Qu......ke Levels
Levels in Qu......ke are separated into two categories, BSP and MAP, with each individual file being stored inside of a .ZIP file. Each file is simply named PRG with a number, meaning there is no simple way of determining which file is which without opening the .ZIP files. There are also duplicate unpacked files stored on the CD.
The launcher requires Windows 95 to run, meaning it can only be loaded with a 32-bit OS and does not function in DOS. The program doesn't run the files directly, it only installs them to the Quake directory, and is as unclear as to what the files are. A large button at the top can be used to change categories, while navigation can be done through a list near the middle of the screen. While documentation exists in German, it consists entirely of instructions for installing said files, meaning most are identical between categories.
