Looks nice, but too symmetric. Gameplay is lacking, unfortunately; it's mostly just "look through the rooms until you find the next key". Of course, W3D in general is pretty much like that, but it's particularly noticeable here. - One of the problems here is probably that this does not actually feel like a "Totenhaus"; it doesn't feel like anything except for some random levels in a building (all of which seem to be on the 2nd floor, too!). "Treasure Hunt" etc. were much better in that regard.

This wad is a WolfenDOOM scenario for DOOM II; in other
words, a Wolf3D TC. Although created on a Macintosh, it is
fully compatible with PC DOOM, and the included patch file
works with DeHackEd 3.0.

This wad also replaces the original upload called toten.zip
which resides in the /themes/wolf3d directory.

*Story*

It's the spring of 1943, and you're working as an
undercover agent behind enemy lines, passing yourself off
as a German in a quaint Bavarian village.  One afternoon,
you're sitting in a tavern sipping schnapps and flirting
with a pretty fraulein when someone identifies you as an
allied spy.  Before you can amiably protest and offer to
buy the man a drink, somebody else hits you on the back of
the head, and the lights go out.  The next thing you know,
you wake up in what appears to be the basement of a large
mansion.  But this is no ordinary mansion.  This is
Totenhaus (House of Death), the dreaded location where
Allied spies are taken to be interrogated and executed. 
Until now, no one has escaped from Totenhaus alive.  Will
you be the first?
