About This File

This level is a downsized version of an extremely large level I created which would not save due to "savegame buffer overrun." This level has been tested on 3 different systems and exhibits no such problem.

Pay attention to wall textures and check your map once in a while. Remember the one really bad monster is EXTREMELY easy to kill, once you know how. There's no need to cheat, 'cause I hate him too. Note the multiple bezerk boxes are simply a way of me giving the player 100% health without using multiple medikits. Too many useable things is the key reason some levels wouldn't save (although the number of sectors also seems to have a negative effect). Thus my reason for cutting down on the number of medikits by using single bezerk kits.

3 Stars. It's old and it's actually pretty good for its age. A lot of it is running around and it gets old after a wild. There isn't enough action to keep you interested and the elevators are inexcusably too high. Especially given that freelook wasn't implemented at this point.

I like this old map; it has neat light sourcing and varied areas (dark hallways and vast rooms) but it keeps its overall theme all along. The wad shows you you can achieve a lot by simple means. It's big, but fun to play.

Bad: Some texture issues; A bit too many supplies given; Secrets required to complete level. Good: Huge, sprawling, semi-non-linear level gives you lots to explore; Very effective lighting; Adequate challenge. Overall: Pretty good stuff. Recommended. 4/5 -VV

This is dated July 1994. It's a pretty entertaining map; the textures and lighting effects are good for the period and the gameplay flows well, with lots of mostly weak monsters. It feels like three different levels smushed together (tech-castle, concrete techbase, a bit of sewer, then Death Star), and has a good non-linear wanderabout feeling. Once again it leaves me wondering why cyberdemons spend so much time loitering beneath crushing ceilings; habit? Ritual?

I too had a few missing textures issues in GZDoom, but this did not really detract from game-play and considering this is a 1994 wad, it's a fun adventure. There are a few too many power-ups, some badly (or thoughtlessly) placed, but nevertheless I still enjoyed it. 3.5/5 rounded to 4/5

      One of the classic megawads, and the successor to TNT Evilution. I've played this several times over the years, and its grown on me more with each play as my tastes mature.   Still has a bunch of maps that got me killed in 2024, after ive finished stuff like HR and AV, and plenty of maps are memorable. Only real downsides is some of the levels have little content, showing its age.

      One of the earliest Doom user maps and It shows. Despite the raw and empty design, the author take a good use of 3D space creating a small fortress surrounded by mountains, the level Is fun to play and not hard. A fancy escapade and a piece of modding history.

      Third and final released map of a WIP episode by David Rager, it's more long, complex and hard than the previous entries in the series. A well made map with pretty challenging parts with a mix of monster usage, envoirnmental hazards and some puzzle gameplay. Fun but pretty harsh.

      Two more misplaced DM maps without a exit like QUDOOM (that at least had a exit room, while not functional) that caught me by their file name and leave me for the bad experience in SP. Chicken is just a long bridge between a thundering abyss where cyberdemons wants to destroy you, meh. Gangstar is a more fun map sets in a big, abstract warehouse where a cyberdemon roam free trying to kill you, shotgunners and lost souls are here in this Hell corner adding more pain to the thing, enforced by semi-hidden mazes, my favorite.

      This is like the physical version of the "we have X at home" meme in DM map format for Quake E1M1. Very poorly made, broken exit and missing textures here and there but at least the level KINDA resembles the original source somehow.
