About This File

You, and hopefully two or three friends are dispatched to put an end to the evil king and queen, tyrannical leaders who rule over your beloved country with an iron fist.

To accomplish this formidable task, you will have to stage a frontal assault on the tyrants' fortress.

The first section you come to, after leaving your base, is the gatehouse. On this other side of this little building lies the parade grounds, where troops frequently mass before moving into the capitol to terrorize citizens. Then, up the stairs and through the garden, where the Queen is known to spend a lot of her time with her handmaidens. Then on to the magician's bunker, where the hated wizards and their enchanted lackeys work their disgusting magics. Then, finally, having circumscribed the fortress proper and gained the keys, you may make your assault on the throne room.

Remember, the king has the only key that will let you leave once you enter the castle...

Because saving is impossible, and because this is a huge wad, set aside an hour or more to get through the whole thing.

The starting room had me hoping for a good slaughter map. Instead I got a huge, empty, boring and shiteasy wad from 1997. 1/5 - Belial

It's OK. A bit too easy though for sure.

      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.
