I found this particular wad while going through links. There are 8 levels to
this Doom2 wad with the second one being basically a way to force the player to
1% health before beginning the next level. You find yourself suspended in midair
with cacodemons fireballing you from all around. When your health reaches 1% you
go to the next level. Be ready to fight as you begin level 3 and definitely get
behind something! As with any setup that uses dehacked or some other such
program - I recommend backing up your Doom2.wad and Doom2.exe just in case. I
didn't have any problems but you never know.
DIFFICULTY RATING
I only played the first three levels of this 8 level wad but I have to say, the
author (who was only 14 when he created it) keeps it interesting. There is no
lack of baddies to kick ass on in this game. Every door, every corner held
something new. Although I didn't find it particularly difficult, it was
difficult enough that I had to keep my eyes, and ears, open.
rating: 6
PLAYABILITY
I enjoyed my experience in these levels very much! The scenery changes often,
puzzles are virtually non-existent, the author going instead for a more straight
forward approach to the game by offering up a plentiful mix of bad guys to
blast. All in all it was alot of fun to play.
PLAYABILITY: 7
LEVEL DESIGN
While I did note some design flaws while travelling through these levels, they
didn't have an impact on the game and I have to say that the levels were well
thought out for the most part and offered enough variety and detail to keep me
interested.
Design: 7
OVERALL SCORE
Amongst the hundreds of levels that I've played over the years, I would say this
one is definitely worth the download. Something on the edge of 4.5 megabytes in
size, it takes a little time to download but you'll enjoy some of the new sounds
and graphics as well as the new weapons. I found the machine gun to be quite
enjoyable! :)
Overall: 6
