| Description: |
1 level WAD. Excessive attention given to the appearence of the level (texture selection, alignment, lighting).
I use a P120 machine, so I imagine some areas may run slowly on a underpowered machine. |

| Good, but not very original... | x | | Although I haven't bothered to check the actual dates, this feels like the earliest Krause map (it's certainly among the earliest, anyway). Appearance is exceptionally blocky and flow is VERY straightforwad, with a lot of simple symmetry. Quite easy, and pretty evenly paced in terms of trap placement. You can see the man's knack here; it's just in its infancy at this point. -- TDotW | x | | This is a decent but very dull level. It's very dark throughout and there are a lot of dark, dull mazes; as the other reviewer points out, it's often very symmetrical, forcing you to go through several familiar-looking corridors in a row. Once you get the super shotgun the challenge evaporates, because there's a steady stream of health and shotgun shells, and the hardest baddies are a few revenants. Overall it's a decent level, technically good for the time but not much fun to play. | x | | Michael Krause's first map, according to the text file, is not a masterpiece by any means. But it's still more fun than a lot of 1996 levels. Also, there were a few decent atmospheric areas I liked. 3.5/5 | x | | Exceptional, fast flow, and quite a blast with the double shotty. Good fun with fastmonsters. 4* | x | | It's from 1996. Not much else to say! | x | | Better than Stronghold. | x |
