felgro	Can't be bothered finding a port it actually works with - everything is broken.	x

Anonymous	Meh, it's not that good indeed. Far too non-linear for my taste, in the bad way; I often found myself wondering what the heck I was supposed to do, and poked about the level until I finally come across something just by chance. Non-linear levels still need to have a flow - this doesn't.	x
Anonymous	I tried to play it on UV without success. The only thing that makes this level hard is the fact that there is not enough ammo. The level plays like shit and unlike what the description says, it is not detailed. 9/5/07	x

Story             : If there is one thing you hate, then it's definately
                    sight seeing, especially when the "sight" in question
                    is as boring as the castle you are visiting today.
                       You would really like to tell the tourist guide that
                    you don't care a damn about where which king used to
                    piss some hundred years ago, but the other visitors
                    seem to be very interested in what the old woman tells them.
                       Well, you are the kind of person who consequently does
                    what he has been told not to do, so if there is a sign
                    on a door saying "Do not enter", you enter.
                       Possibly you will find something amazing on your own;
                    although since you have spent months on killing thousands
                    of monsters, demons and saving mankind, there have not
                    been many things that were able to excite you. Some days
                    were so boring that you wished you had missed some bad
                    guys. One night you even dreamed there would be another
                    portal into the dimension of the doomed.
                       But you know how improbable this is, particularly in
                    this castle. Isn't it?

                    bad doom player (like me :-) can survive skill 3.

There is a lot of
                      - Detail
                      - Monsters
                      - Ammo (on easy skill)
                      - Nasty traps
                      - Secrets

There is not much
                      - Health
                      - Ammo (on hard skill)

Some of the original graphics are from the Justin Fisher
                    "Alchemy" library, from "3D Game Alchemy" by Sams Publishing.
