Phocas Island 2

I'm playing this again b/c I really enjoyed it.Kudos to the author!

I am speechless 5/5

adventurous and good with different paths for progression.

This was quite fun but as I got as far as the ice monster I didn't have a clue how to beat it. Voting 4 stars instead of 5 since it's easy to get stuck later on through it without any idea on how to progress any further.

Hopkins must be one of the most creative people to ever open up a Doom editor. This project shows that he's not only mastered basic mapping, but also has a good handle on advanced ZDoom features, scripting, and custom content. Furthermore, the story he tells and the puzzles he presents are every bit as good as AAA adventure titles. Absolutely epic. 5/5 stars, legendary.

Incredible! Hope you release 2.5 later on this year!

I haven't finished it entirely. I did get all the way to the credits, but of course, I didn't complete everything and get the full ending, but i'm working on it. Exploration is great, and there is serious sense of a chievement to EVERYTHING you do, every discovery makes you feel good, when you uncover some secret hidden area. Not to spoil anything, but just before entering the ice area and seeing what surrounds you is a classic moment, and the bosses are clever.

Amazing, and quite different. Never seen a wad like this before... 5/5

this is more an adventure than doom, the author wanted it so and did a masterpiece 5/5

Way too repetitive and too much item hunting.

I was wondering if such an adventure game would be possible with Zdoom scripting engine and now I can see and play it! Riddles are not that hard but it makes you running around searching for objects, big and chaotic but a great exploration world. Sometimes it slows down and gives me the motion sickness but I can understand it's not easy to make it run smooth. Ok,. after a point I tried the walkthrough but that's because of the motion sickness and wanted to finish this gem fast! 5/5 - Optimus

Someone played Riven... :p Good show, me likes. 4/5

My god it's AWESOME! 5/5 - uvazquez

Crap 0/5

Good sides - Huge nonlinear levels, puzzle-based gameplay, lots of interesting story development and quite hard, but still adjustable combat. At times it felt like an adventure/rpg game rather than a shooter. Bad sidez -too evident lack of ambient sounds, the underwater looks very unnatural (water haze friend..), the rock formations in most cases look too damn sqaure. A bit more slopes would remedy the situation. Nevertheless, a huge effort by the author. 4 stars.

christly 5/5

garbage. not doom at all. 0/5

Amazing!

Very very very good. Very imaginative! A welcome change from the usual single doom wads. Could of used more weapons, bigger variety of enemies and maybe a better boss fight. More journal entries would of been appreciated also. However this was a very fun wad to play through, 5/5!

Absolutely beautiful, great job!

Pretty good, I'm enjoying it. And fuck the ass who just spoiled the ending. -_- 4/5

Well, what can I say? The gameplay tends to get boring, but you had me hooked until the end. Both of 'em. The visuals are rather impressive, and all in all, a good game experience, I think. 4/5

This is an example of perfect execution of a good concept. The scripting was amazing, and it had a definitely original feel to it. 5/5 SMG

Holy crap. This map made my head a splode, it was that good. I havne't gotten the second ending yet, but I'm quite certain I missed entire maps.

Everything about this wad is legendary. From detail to gameplay,this wad does it all. My only complaint were the endings. Even the good endings was a bit depressing. Although you saved the world, you still paid a heavy price. The sacrifice you made put you into a vegetative state that you would likely never recover from.
