About This File

This is the chilling finale to The Shores of Hell, but with a few extra twists. There are many more enemies and things to figure out. There is an entire section that cannot be reached without TWO people playing. Here is a warning... Even on the easiest skill setting, this level will be challenging. Here's another warning... I created this level on a 90 MHz Pentium with 16 Meg of memory. There are loads and loads of enemies running around. I do not recommend playing this level on your old 386. My 486 66 with 32 Meg of memory was even a little sluggish. I am happy to tell you that I just completed the original music for this level-- my sequencing software is crummy!

Awful. It's annoyingly fiddly to get out of the first area unless you look at the level in an editor; and it discourages trial and error with inescapable lava. Then you have to shoot an unmarked wall panel to open a door, and there is a crushing ceiling, and unintuitive switches. The whole level is a lesson in frustratingly poor design and it's not entertaining at all.

A classic and delightfully quirky map.

Nice, challenging and creative map. And it's from the guy who (some years later) brought you STRAIN!

Fantastic map. And to the guy who said it was lifted from Heroes: you've got that ass-backwards. Heroes was a compilation wad, in which !wow!.wad was included.

"The word you will say after playing this" Wow? You mean wow.wad? What really put me off was in the bugs section, it says, "The big area where the cyber-guy is, has a spot where HOM effect is visable." That really makes it seem like another wow.wad.

"This was just lifted directly from E1M8 of Heroes." said someone above. That's totally backwards. Heroes was a compilation wad - this was the original map. Jon Landis made some wonderfully creative, pioneering maps, and was never content just to make "more of the same" or to stick to well-worn themes. As for the guy quibbling about a small HOM, the vanilla engine had all sorts of issues that were hard to work around - JL did the best he could within those parameters.

      Unloved
      By D3rpyD00dlez · Posted
      I genuinely enjoyed this mod with its level design and music. It was challenging and interesting and it kept me playing a while after beating it to try to find anything. though I would say it was slightly repetitive and overwhelming with enemies at some moments.

      The Darkening Episode 2
      By LouigiVerona · Posted
      Writing a review for Darkening 2 is tough. It's a beloved megawad, and for good reason. As many other reviewers have said, it is historically a very important project.   It was an important megawad for me personally. I fell in love with the first level in particular. The music, the realistic architecture, so reminiscent of the video games of the 90s... It all left a lasting impression. And it was one of the most beautiful wads I've seen at the time.   But I rarely played anyt

      A competently made map, for sure, but fun? It's way too long and repetitive, with same-y combat & ambush scenarios used again and again, and with way too much enemies, and not that much of a challenge, even for me who isn't exactly fond of "SUPER HARD WAD #9263!!!!11!. You can cut the whole thing in half, and then cut THAT half in half, and it would be a better map. Is it bad? No, just a little bit above average, mostly because it drags a bit too long.

      Generally good map design, but the difficulty as is the case with pwads tends to be uneven even on HMP, especially when you mix them with what slaughtermaps tend to be (monster spam). Too many parts where, after pressing a switch, you'll spend some time killing enemies only to realise the map maker tried to get cute and spawned a bunch of hidden archviles somewhere to start reviving everyone while you were busy wasting ammo. This is especially unfun in parts with very little cover where you'll b

      The Revenant Problem
      By Ranger Qwerty · Posted
      I like the part where I pay for the numerous murders I committed by getting beaten up by either a Mancubus or an Arachnotron, it changed my outlook on Monster Priority. Thank you "Problematic" Revenant #7, I have yet to find a way to repay him.
