Hell Medley (original: Pekelna vsehochut)

yes indeed, this does have early versions of Kama Sutra maps, all done in Doom 1 style. the rest of the set is mostly hit or miss, but there seem to be more misses than hits. while its fun to slaughter loads of monsters at times, the amount of barons really slows down the pacing by quite a lot. historic wad, shows how Gusta has evolved since then.

Hell Medley is a collection of early maps from Adolf Vojta, one of the two mappers for the famous Kama Sutra Doom 2 megawad.  Out of the 16 maps, 3 of them(E1M1, E1M8 & E3M1) were later converted to Kama Sutra Maps 01, 07 & 12. The rest of the maps are bit of a mixed bag but are worth looking into for historically reasons.

 

-Philnemba 3.5/5

E1 was OK... as for E2, I only played half of E2M1 before feeling it was a waste of my time. Some of these are OK, some are pretty meh; all are old. Don't expect Kama Sutra-quality maps!

Sure, it's not quite KS quality, but how many wads are? It's still well worth a look (4/5). And so what if it is old? So are HR, Plutonia, etc.

I liked KS a lot, but this set of maps didn't catch on to me. Too many weakly designed maps or just otherwise weird/boring stuff. I guess you might be able to find the 9 best levels and compose a solid episode, but as is this just barely gets a 3/5.

I loved Kama Sutra (just forget about the last level, already - it's such a TINY part of the wad anyways!) but couldn't really find any of the KS appeal here, not even muted. Sorry, but 2/5.

This is a bunch of 16 wads and I guess they've been made earlier than 2003 and only compiled in that year. At least, that's how they look. Not without details and stuff, but very simple and basic. The gameplay is very nice, with an easy start and some nice challenging maps later on. The first two episodes are fun to play, but the last two maps (episode 3) are a bit pointless. 3/5 -Milian

the e1 maps are lovely, the e2 maps feel a bit amateurish in comparison in parts, and e2m5 has a window ledge bug that let's you complete it in 10 seconds by running over a step and through, which is sloppy, but overall pretty good fun. - pritch

Some oldschool maps with pretty good gameplay. 3/5 overall will be fine ;) Promin Gusto! :) -Damned

Pritch: If you take a look at Kama Sutra, you'll see that Gusta (a compet-n player) often deliberately allows speedrunning shortcuts in his maps. It is not sloppy mapping, but rather a way to give his maps additional points of interest by making them play differently in differing categories/styles. Oh yeah, and E2M5 time should be 0:04. ;)
