Hellbent's first map. Textures are a bit messy, the Cyber/Spider fight was pointless, and ammo is too sparse without secrets. Features some very clever and tricky traps and layouts, surprisingly good for a first effort and worth a look. 4/5	x
I liked it - COOL - some unkillable monsters and a secret that can't be triggered	x
I was pleasantly surprised by this (a single-player wad by Hellbent?!) - it's pretty good, though a little rough around the edge.	x
Pretty good, nice oldschool style, good use of triggers. Lots of secrets. It's technically possible to get stuck inside the "cross" but that's the only real bug I found.	x

=======================================================================
Deep in the bowels of hell you must descend to escape this nightmare.
A fairly large level.  I got my inspiration for this level from the
beginnings of E1M5 and E3M4 as you'll see in the beginning of the wad.
Despite this, it manages to be an original and creative wad.  The
artistic design and architecture is decent.  There are tons of secrets
some of which are very helpful and maybe necessary to complete the
level.  It progressively gets harder as you go through the level.  It
starts out easy on any skill level but not long is it hard and by the
end it's downright impossible - well, not quite.  I encourage those
that play to try and find all the secrets as that is half the fun of
this level.  Also, let the baddies do the work for you, half the time
there's so many monsters of so many species you can save your ammo and
watch the firefight from afar.  In fact, you'll be low on ammo if you
don't let them do some of the work for you.
