Off-topic: trolls are bad, but fanboys also because they lead to unrealistic expectations. Having said that, I agree with cs99cjb (^^). Architecture and textures usage are at best unoriginal. Gameplay is uninspired. Overall: 3/5 for the efford, and I suggest you take a timeout and think about your focus: creating bulk maps, or trying to make something special.

These maps have their faults and are a bit cramped, but these maps prove to be quite a good bit of fun and can provide a bit of a challenge in an oldschool kind of fashion. I'll be waiting for the rest. 4/5. ~Hank

Design is better than I was led to expect but I still had the strange feeling that I was playing computer-generated maps. They are competently made but curiously soulless. The main problem (apart from repetitive gameplay and lack of variation) is the boring lighting. The essence of Doom is diminished lighting. Without it, you're playing Wolfenstein 3D. Seriously reconsider this aspect.

This was a RETRO style wad. There are corridors and boxes, but it is still fun to play through.

Average gameplay, average architecture. Got stuck on MAP05 and couldn't find the switch that opens the door in yellow key room, which I found it has no tag on it 3/5 -Mr. Chris

Too random, too bland. It looks like the author just wanted to draw random geometric shapes and accidentally maps popped up. 1/5

      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 is 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.
