About This File

THE SEQUEL TO WICKED.WAD! 2 levels - EPISODE 2 MISSIONS 1 and 2.

Contains properly aligned graphics this time.

Level 1 is a small level that takes place in a converted castle that is now center. Plenty of monsters (IMPS, SPECTRES, DEMONS, TROOPERS, AND A CACODEMON). More than enough ammo to get you through, if you can find it and make your way thru the maze. We have warp zones, turbo lifts, switches, hidden rooms, doors that open when you least expect, materializing walkways, and ????

Level 2 is a medium sized level that has a Baron Of Hell in it. Plus the BFG 9000. You leave the tech center to explore the outside of the old castle. There are acid pits, sacrificial alters, the maze-like caverns that are lit only by torches. Warp zones galore. Can you find the correct switch to open those 3 doors that are next to each other. Too many things to list.

I hope you enjoy them. Comments, criticism or ideas are allways welcome.

There are some nifty ideas in the wad, but weapons are hard to find and the secrets are overloaded with powerups and weapons that are definitely needed to play.

      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.
