the Lutz levels, again, very detail-oriented, but here he manages some great gameplay. I completely lost it at MAP05 though. some of these maps just flat out drag on more than necessary.

Stylistically self-contained, well-balanced (sans level 3...) partial conversion for DooM. Each level has distinctive challenges and gameplay "theme". Quite atmospheric For non-horror-mod. Perhaps not that scary, has strong sense of uncanny in places. Especially liked the fairly open design of the levels. Theyre pretty mazy, with many approaches and routes. Monsters also often wake far from player and roam the levels. (continued in next post)

Brilliant! These 10 levels are of highest detail possible, and very nice, challenging gameplay. The levels are pretty big on average, so after you're done you'll feel very satisfied as if you've played a whole megawad. I'd recommend this to any doomer, from old school Hell revealed fans to modern zdoom scrpiting freaks, this is something that you'll appreciate regardless of your tastes. I'll be glad to check Phobos: Anomaly reborn from the same author now.

Guys, In case you don't know, Graf Zahl made a patch a while ago so you can play this in ZDoom and Windows. http://www.doomworld .com/idgames/index.p hp?id=13171 I had hoped to someday make an Eternity Windows version, but things have happened to me that mean the chances of it ever happening are pretty much nill. Enjoy, Joel Murdoch Former Chaos Crew Coder.

Even better than P:AR due to slightly better play. A classic!

Yes, this is even better than P:AR. I didn't think P:AR's gameplay was that bad though, I still mostly enjoyed it. Also more worthwhile works from these authors: Inferno, The Dying End (Chris Lutz); Realm of Shades, Demonized (Nokturnus); end1, end2, aaawake (Emil Brudgne).

Fantastic. Challenging when you throw monsters at you when you least expect it. Long levels (I got lost a couple times, but it's totally worth it). I like it when you gradually get weapons, not all in the same level. GREAT level design!

Excellent episode. Great detail, the fake 3d stuff in particular. Balanced and fun gameplay on HMP. Map09 sometimes caused GZDoom 1.5.2 to crash, though (using the cod-zd patch). 5/5 still

I love it! It's better than Phobos: Anomaly Born, mainly because i prefer the overall style used here, and the gameplay was not as frustrating. I mean, the amount of effort that went into detailing is just insane, so if you're a sucker for beautiful architecture (like me), you'll love it! 5 stars. -TeH NeXuS

I'm G. B. Jackson, original team lead from The Chaos Crew. It has been a long time since I have messed with DOOM stuff, and I left the project before it was completed. The team did an awesome job bringing my vision to life and I continue to be thankful for their time and effort. I want to thank everyone for the wonderful comments. It's great to be able to look back and see that a lot of people have enjoyed this... Take care...

Better than PAR. PAR is all flash, no substance. What I mean is that PAR may have great architecture and/or layouts but the gameplay majorly sucks. This wad, though is highly recommended!

It doesn't seem to work right in zdoom. There are red exclamation points floating everywhere. I couldn't run the .exe since I am using Linux not DOS.

Please look for the ZDoom patch (search for cod_zd). As for the WAD, it's worth more than 5 stars! It never ceases to amaze me.

      These levels are short, sweet, and pack a lot of punch. Complete with a humorous end-text-screen containing a healthy dose of silly shock-humor, this a masterful triumph of Heretic map-making, and most certainly a must-play wad.

      A really frantic and fun DM map with pretty neat stuff like invisible pillar in the middle of the arena, doesn't have anything to do with the title but the level can become a BFG spamming fest soon, especially with bots. Less fun in SP but the arch-ville+bunch of nazi combo is a nice feat.

      Only six enemies (played on UV) and no working exit. Other than that, it is a pretty detailed map for 1995. I enjoyed the general design and the poisonous vats of acid. Very cool, but not practical for good gameplay.   EDIT: Just discovered this is a ideally a DM wad… haha, for that purpose, it seems good. My original rating was 2/5, will change it now.

      Lots of traps and monster closets. Some switches are activated by shooting but there's nothing to really tell you about this because they look the same as other switches.   Texturing is good and enemy placement proved rather difficult at times. There aren't may health pickups on UV so it was a fight to get through.

      It's pretty good for 1994. If you don't mind having no health items at all (except in a few maps) and the outrageous amounts of cyberdemons per map, you should give it a try. It's pretty challenging and I like it. E2M3 is a bit 'eh...' though.
