This is the cream of the 1994 crop - Very authentic E1 feel, texturing is clean, monster and item placement is competent. Still would pass a decent maps if they were released today. The layout of E1M2 is a little bit stringy, but compared to it's contemporaries these maps are gold!

I found both of these maps during my play through of Maximum Doom. E1M1 has a very simple layout, but still it's texture detailing is pretty good for 1994. Then there's E1M2 which is pretty darn impressive for 1994 & is easily on par with the very best wads made during that year. This is clearly inspired by Doom E1 & with a relatively small amount of work could even pass for a The Way ID Did map. My only real gripe about the map was that it was pretty tight on ammo.

Two small, good maps, with nice E1-style texturing. They have mostly weak monsters, but the health supply is limited, so you can't play carelessly. Simple layouts, and straight-forward gameplay means they're good for 10 minutes of fun. --3/5

      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.

      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

      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.
