Description:	You begin in a place you are destined to return to several times -- three keys and an impaled head guarded by strange creatures are in view. The erie glowing landscape and the strange other-worldly sounds remind you that this isn't Kansas. There is a transport station to your left. It's getting pretty difficult to stay alive here -- might as well see where it goes...

Reviews:

This is dated September 1995. It got off to a bad start, with some irritating new samples (the baddies go YAAARRRG! when they die) and a huge boring mazey bit. And then I realised that the whole thing is a huge boring maze; mono-textured, lava floor, it just goes on and on. My progress felt random and the gameplay is just shooting baddies in dribs and drabs in a big wide maze; the ending comes out of the blue with a lot of the level unexplored.

Description:	You begin in a place you are destined to return to 
			several times -- three keys and an impaled head 
			guarded by strange creatures are in view.  The erie 
			glowing landscape and the strange other-worldly 
			sounds remind you that this isn't Kansas. There is a 
			transport station to your left.  It's getting pretty 
			difficult to stay alive here -- might as well see

Comments:         This level is a lot of fun to play.  There is 
			plenty of ammo and power-ups, but you have to look 
			for them. You can still get fragged if you don't 
			have a good strategy, or choose the wrong weapon.  
			I suggest you use your map (tab key) to get around 
			efficiently.  I've placed a few landmarks around so 
			you can get your bearings (all tunnels look alike 
			don't they!).  This level has three secret areas, 
			and you will have to be vigilant to find them all. 
			There are four weapons and power-up cashes, so I 
			suggest you check out the whole area.  You never 
			know when you might have to go back to one so you 
			can power up!  One piece of advice -- it will help 
			if you can get the bad guys to go after each other 
			in the crossfire.

UnZip TNLSOFIN.ZIP and put TNLSOFUN.WAD into your DOOM2 sub-directory. 
At the DOS prompt type:

DOOM2 -FILE TNLSOFUN.WAD

and press enter. Select your difficulty level and begin. This WILL NOT 
permanently modify your game.  It will only temporarily replace your level 1 with the Tunnels of Fun level.  I recommend you set your gamma correction, (F11 key), to as low a setting as you're comfortable with to keep with the spirit of the level!   Enjoy!
