This wad would be ok without the first three nooblevels(map1-3). 2/5	x
The mention of an "added sense of realism" was ominous, and this set of levels suffers from Doom bathroom syndrome, whereby the designer has spent more time building toilets than gameplay. For something designed in 2006 it reeks of 1995, with crude copy-and-paste levels brought into the modern age with groups of dozens of the same monster class. The levels have the same mapping techniques over and over again.	x
Too sterile, too much copy & paste (same elements on all levels, this is basically ok to do but here it is done too often), too many doors non working, idiotic amounts of ammo eating monsters in one crowd and way to few ammo. Unbalanced. Imagine fighting 35 Hellknights with a shotgun or something in smaller rooms.	x
A charming set; the architecture (reminiscent of DOOM's E1 on a larger scale), the lighting, and the music give it an absorbing mood. It does suffer somewhat in regards to playability, though. Mostly because health is distributed unevenly, but in the earlier levels also because the player's arsenal is low powered and there are many enemies. Best played at "Hurt me plenty".

"Imagine fighting 35 Hellknights with a shotgun or something in smaller rooms."?!? LOL !!! "The player's arsenal is low powered"?!? Muhahaha!!! You understood nothing at all about how to play Doom, guys... Do you have a brain? Yes, it's hard, and obviously, you don't have the skill for such pwads. 4/5 - Jive	x

STORY SO FAR�

During the events of Hell on Earth, a small research facility, MOROS, was
captured by the hell spawn in one vast swipe. What was not known at the
time was that MOROS was in fact the hell spawns primary fortification.
Using MOROS� technology to their advantage, they began transporting their
own armies across the globe to various UAC facilities. Thus, enhancing
their strongpoint and securing many offensive positions against Earth�s
forces without them even knowing. While Earth�s forces battled their way
through the infested Star port, you and your comrades were holding your own
against the incoming hordes of hell spawn at MOROS. Even after relentless
wave after wave, you stood strong, while another of your buddies fell,
until you were the last one left�

Well, it looks like everyone is dead, except for you. Silence echoes
throughout the facility. Clutching your pistol, you tightly grasp the
trigger not knowing what awaits you around the next corner. But you know
what you must do. The hell spawns numbers are growing rapidly. It�s all
on your shoulders� You make your way to the Recreation Center. Upon
entering, you smell the faint odor of rotten flesh and the moans of the
undead staff. It�s now or never. You�re Earth�s last unknown hope.
