Impossible: A New Reality

A very solid doom map that plays a bunch of mind tricks with hidden teleports. My main problem is that it gets kind of confusing by the end, sometimes it isn't clear what switches do, and you're left to run around and backtrack until you see something new. The final boss was also frustrating.

a slow-paced level, meant for showing some interesting trickery that earned it the "Escher Award", although this kind of trickery can easily be found in newer wads now. it's got a weird story in text file but I could care less about that. the wad itself was fun enough to warrant a recommendation.

Nice use of ZDoom features to create a challenging level fill of surreal experiences. Recommended for those that want to take a break from the usual experience and play MC Escher Doom.

surprisingly and good idea, but with an irritating gameplay 3/5

I cant get this map out of my head... You get 4/5 --Tristram

Imagine what this would be like in Deathmatch. =D The puzzles are absolutely brilliant and well-made, and there is no way to predict what'll happen next: somehow the author makes this a positive rather than a negative. The only thing that's missing is walking on the ceiling! 5 stars. - Obsidian

christly amusing. this will get a 5/5 for such bug-fuck craziness. Admiral Xolzo (3 year doomer)

I liked it, but it got a little bit boring as it went on. 2/5 -r_rr

Wonderful, and the fight at the very end was genius

Thank you, JK, for this long overdue example of what zdoom mapping should be about. - pritch

4/5 for me. I love crazy stuff like this - Cutman

Not bad, but had some really annoying traps.

Overrated. Some good novelty ideas, but very annoying gameplay. Too many mappers want to destroy the player in teh name of chalalalange, maybe provide some fun here and there? Don´t get me wrong, I love killing hordes of cacos/revs with the single shotty, np...2/5

Pretty darm beauty and insane idea. - Daimon

This map is reallly well, STRANGE. A very memorable experience nonetheless. There are some faults but it's a unique idea with reasonable execution so 5/5 is given.

Utter Brilliance! 5/5

boy that was some level... tough and interesting but somewhat annoying as well. The highlight of the map... probably the switches puzzle :P

Points for the whacked out txt file and unique and interesting use of the ZDoom engine. A fine wad, confusing and sometimes maze-like, but fun and unique gameplay. Did I mention that it's effing impossible? (SSG fight against a Spiderdemon + at least a dozen Barons? Count me in!) Putting that aside, this wad gets major cool points for endless staircases and jump-through mirrors. 4/5. Difficulty? 6/5

I love this map! 5/5 - Arch

It's holy shit, man. Definitely a dada-ism experience. From infinite loops to walking into mirrors. Of course, the surprise ambush traps are neat. Oh shit! Make a megawad based on these puzzles and it should be in cacowad history. ~5/5

The warping shit sucks. I thought I saw my computer glitch. And then a few minutes later I get stuck in a outdoor area. 4/26/07

5/5 Architecture is great, I like the texturing, and the fights are rough. The concept really only breaks down in the loop with the Pain Elementals. Aside from that, the vast rooms feel a bit underdetailed, but it's packed with plenty of "whoa!" moments, like the red key surprise, the library, and the final leg of the map. - KMX E XII

Amazing idea and, contrary to what other people said, the dificulty was perfect. Up until the final the boss that is. The final battle was just too damn challenging. Also, Arachnotron, Spider Demon, and Cyberdemon completely threw off the medievil theme. If the final battle was actually possible I would give a 5/5, but it pissed me off way too much. - 4/5

It's trippy and neat, but way too hard for me, and I played it on Hurt Me Plenty. The puzzles are well done: they take a little figuring out, but nothing is too hard, and sometimes the simplest answer is the correct one. Just ease up on the monsters (dude goes a little revenant happy) and you've got an amazing lvl.

Annoying map. Tediousness at its worst. 2/5
