About This File

A map with a distinct John Romero Doom2 style feel. at least, that's what I was aiming for. It will be difficult for some, but so long as you are vigilant, it shouldn't be too difficult.

It turned out better than I expected as it looks and plays pretty well without going over the top with detail or amount of monsters. I am pretty proud of it!

The author was right. This map does have the feel of the original doom2 to it. The layout is remarkable, the details are just enough and the textures blend very beautifully to deliver this brown stone theme to near perfection. Gameplay is also very well balanced. I've no complaints about this map. 5/5

Great Oldschool feel to it, detail when neccesary, layout based on gameplay. The gameplay is also pretty well thought out, the balance isnt quite perfect but its fine. 4/5

This is dated July 2006. The author's first map in the archive dates from 1996; this is his second map. The ten-year delay must be some kind of record. Despite the gap the levels have a similar feel. This one is good fun to play, with 121 monsters in a kind of large-scale medieval slime castle. As before the design is entertaining, not at all hard, action-packed, ammo-packed, fast-moving, and it has a neat retro style. Good fun especially if you just run through it.

I really liked this wad, great architecture and tough as nails gameplay. Excellent layout. But it was a bit unrealistic because of the windows looking directly out into the sky but with rooms located directly behind. But who cares, its a damn good effort and I want to see more like this from this author. 4/5 -PC

Very good wad, especially for a relative newcomer. Good amounts of height variations and suprising light level depths for a new mapper. Texturing selection is a little wonky in certain places but overall the map flows very well. Look forward to more from this mapper in future releases.

There's nothing wrong with this castle-like map. It's quite short, well-detailed and gameplay is not too hard, but challenging enough (maybe it could be a bit harder, though). Nice, but nothing too special about it. 3.5/5 -Milian

Great wad! Starts simple, but gets progressively more challenging. A little more ammo would be nice. A few nice surprises, esp. the arch vile. The fortress is well crafted and there is a nice sense of progression as you move along.

      thank god Underhalls was the map that followed this mod as that level was able to remind me what actually competent level design looks like.

      Not that bad, even kind of interesting find the secrets in the map! But yeah, that switches jungle is a awful choice really.

      A basic and nice looking showroom type of map where monsters are trapped inside glass prisons, no exit and no way to play this with any modern source Port like DSDA-Doom and GZDoom, but works really well in Crispy Doom. It was a pleasant experience.

      Conceptually not bad, it's a pretty imposing tower with some decent lighting, but no ammo at all despite having the guns and a VERY obscure way to rise up the floor in the lava pit? That's a big downer. But overall, it's ok.

      Well, the map is pretty basic. The map is quite challenging, with there being 0 ammo pickups (excluding the backpack) outside of the starting room. There are also nazis for some reason. I will give it 2 stars only because this really wasn't meant to be played to be enjoyed, but rather just a example of how to build a map in DEU.
