Editor(s) used:	DEU
Bugs:	A few textures aren't quit aligned along the X axis, and the one in the secret stairwell isn't Y aligned quite right. In the final room there is one flash of black effect. Sometimes the crushing ceilings stop halfway down(I think I fixed this, but I'm not sure). Once Dr. Digital got stuck on a corner in the first blue hall to the right of the start(this should be fixed). Send me E-mail if any others are found.

Zahid	typical 94's map fully functional though repetitive,bland,odd and quite easy...that barrel trap was impressive....play if you like digging oldschool stuff avoid otherwise	x
Anonymous	The layout of this small, bare map is very amateurish but gameplay is decent so I'll grade it generously. It starts with an oversized room with lots of crusher traps. However, they are predictable and there are invulns provided for you. It then ends with room-to-room fighting of a grab bag of monsters and is topped off with a Cyber-Mastermind finale. Be careful when going for the BFG (it leads to a dangerous but survivable barrel trap). Not horrible, but not worth your time. Skip it. --2/5	x

Misc. Author Info       : This is the first public wad I have made.  I have
made several wads for my friends and myself(for deathmatches) before.
Description             : You are a special forces commando ordered to UAC's
Neural Research Facility where they were using human cells to control some 
computers that were replicating DNA.  One of the chips with the human brain
cells malfunctioned and the cells within replicated horrible monsters from 
the DNA replicators.  Soon after, the guards destroyed the chip but the 
damage was done.  You are to go there and kill all the monsters.  Watch out,
because the place was evacuated so quickly that the intruder alarm/neutralizer
was left on.  The monsters have reportably entered an old cult temple that was
located next to the research center.  You should only leave once all the monsters
are destroyed.  Good luck and good hunting:)

Misc. Info:
You can get every weapon in this.  There are 3 traps.  Don't be too greedy in
getting the BFG(who knows, you may walk into a trap :)).  In the hall straight
ahead of the start there is a trap primarily designed for Deathmatches(although
you can kill the caco's in it)  take the time to walk through the level and test
the traps before a deathmatch.  Also if someone is holed up in the BFG trap room
you can go there and kill him even if you has the rocket launcher, take a chance.
One final word of caution:  Run like hell in the "garbage compactor" room! Don't
bother with the baddies of your ass is dead.
