The Foothills is the first episode in DUSK. It features 11 levels (10 normal, 1 secret.). All the levels were mainly designed by the games creator, David Szymanski. Each level has a distinct setting but a shared theme across the episode, derelict farms or industrial areas, with the exception of E1M9 which is a city setting.

Story

The main character, looking to explore the town of DUSK, PA, after hearing of the treasure kept within its ruins, is captured by cultists. He wakes up in a cellar, attached to meat hooks, with three chainsaw-wielding Leathernecks at the ready. A mysterious voice commands they "kill the intruder". From there on, he fights the cultists and makes his way through various rural locations, including farms, mines, and swamps, encountering The Intoxigator and The Duke Brothers along the way. Finally he reaches the town of DUSK itself, but the town is completely empty. The inhabitants are either dead, possessed or part of the cult. After entering a passage in one of the buildings blocked in the street - the main character enters a secret military complex, that houses The Experiments. After defeating them, he proceeds to The Grainery, and to Episode 2 - The Facilities.
