Reviews:

Plain-looking map with oversized, squarish rooms. Almost only small monsters, and plenty of ammo. The spiral staircase/corridor section mentioned in the text didn't knock my socks off. The yellow key needed to exit is readily accessible on HMP and lower, but placed elsewhere and guarded by a cyber/mastermind combo on UV. One of two secrets, containing two monsters, is unreachable outside of DM, as there's no red key. Offers a bit of action but is ultimately forgettable. --2/5

Quick Description       :    A fun, dizzying spiral staircase will knock
                             your socks off.  This is my first DOOM level,
                             but I know you'll enjoy it.  Some textures are
                             un-aligned, but it doesn't take much away from
                             the enjoyment of the whole thing.
