I think this is a nice level set, featuring an original theme (dark corridors, poisonous water, nice use of architecture at times). There are some problems anyway, like some graphical glitches and the unpassable exit on E1M2. 4/5!

Well, I tried the second map because it's based on some Roman baths at Bath. I have been to Bath. But there was a bit that either had a bug, or was smarter than me; a window with a step that looked as if I should have been able to run through it, but I couldn't and the level ground to a halt.

To the above reviewer: all the maps are playable. Not sure which bit you mean, but there should be some way to make progress.

The crappy prequel to the amazing ALLEYS.wad. These levels are reminiscent of Scott McNutt's maps with terrible hallways and hidden doors. The muzak makes me want to bang my head against one of the thousands of invisible walls in this wad. E1M5 was actually good, though, up until I ran low on ammo, couldn't find any health, and was expected to run though a dark, vine maze with imps. Fuck that '94 shit. 2/5

Anomaly indeed. This is a strange strange wad. The author didn't copy anyone, instead he developed his own very unique style. It's full of things that are almost universally considered bad: invisible walls, unmarked doors, dark mazes, etc, but due to the overall weirdness they actually kind of work... "Kind of". After two maps I got annoyed anyway and only briefly looked at the rest of the wad. Definitely don't download this if you just want to relax.

Blegh. I didn't like these levels. They were pretty ugly.

      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.
