Map layout: varies between 2-3.5*. Decoration & ambiance: 3.5*. Gameplay starts not not good with the cacos and the bunch of lost souls (2*), but the ridiculous AV flood leads to a full point subtraction because continuously having to run through teleports is not funny anymore after 5 minutes, so 1* awful. Seriously, this horrible monster placement ruins a potential 4* map. As gameplay is imho the most important aspect of a map: overall 2*. It's a pity...

very strange map. don't like the arch-reveal but the others were cool. kinda lost.

If you're confused by the start, you need to press one of the switches on the pillar that has blue\/red/\yellow switches and also a normal one. Anyway, what a unique level! It's sort of like Skulltag's Invasion mode but in limit removing format. For the arch-viles my strategy was to keep teleporting all the time (like after every 2-3 shots) and it worked fairly well. The rest was definitely a lot more relaxing but still kept me on my toes. A very cool experiment in gameplay.

is it even possible to beat without cheat?....not for me i guess....layout is nice though

Nothing too special, gameplay as usual, architecture is very good and reminds me of Thy Flesh Consumed. Give it a go. 4/5 ~havok2000

not one of the best of this series... Aniway, 3 stars from me. Daimon

This map is great fun if you can stand the archvile heat! :)

Turns out I can vote again after all. Personally, I enjoyed playing this well-thought-out and creative map. Some monster fights 'slow' the action, but there's a reason behind this. Play it to find out what it is :)

A good looking level with good, fast paced gameplay. The most realisitic of the Monolith wads, with some excellent architecture. The Exit room still sucked. 4 Stars -PC

The archvile part was pretty hard but a fun level. This level is worth downloading now. 4/6/07

i thought it was worth it.

This is such a well produced map. You remain one of my favourite mappers of all time, Richard. While I might have wanted a stronger and more coehrent theme texture-wise, this is an amazing effort in terms of making a small, relatively simple map provide great non-linear gameplay (well, somewhat) and it looks like it would kick ass in deathmatch too. Very impressive. The somewhat schizo texturing and anticlimactic ending nudges it down to 4 stars. /Ola Björling

HOLY FUCK this is a good map. 5/5

This is a meaty, manly level. If it was a woman it would be Fatima Whitbread. The map has lots of fighting and some simple-but-good design, with nice light sourcing in places. It's almost a kind of slaughter level, pitting you against waves of baddies in a large complex. I would ditch or tone down the archvile fight near the start - although you can skip it by hiding behind the pillars. One texture misalignment, at a lava pit in the NE.

C'mon. Where's the fun in havin 15 archviles teleporting-in the level? This means either complete failure or standing behind the bars and using hit und RUN 200 times plus save/load and so wasting too much time of my life. Too many hard monsters (at least on UV) otherwise okay.

Creative design, but the gameplay is worse. I was quite confused at the beginning, but then I understand the system. The number of Archvilles was quite unfair. 3/5 - Damned

Suddenly the series gains suction momentum, spawning 10 archviles on my sorry butt I didn't find that funny :| Meh.
