Knee-Deep in the Dead is the first episode of Doom/The Ultimate Doom and the only episode in the shareware version.

The episode takes place at the Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC) facility on Phobos, one of the moons of Mars.

Designed primarily by John Romero, the levels feature a unique graphical style characterized by extensive use of STAR textures, large amounts of saturated brown and green colors throughout, and a hazy mountain skyline (greenish in the landforms, but reddish-brown in the end-of-level screen) against a light grayish sky.

Due to their inclusion in the shareware version of Doom, the Episode 1 level styles have become one of the most popular and easily recognizable themes of "Doom design". Fan-made levels that exclusively use Episode 1 textures, and often emulate the Episode 1 gameplay style, are commonly referred to as E1 or TechBase style levels.
