About This File

This is my first PWAD and while not the most flashy, it is solid. As far as I know it has none of the STUPID door and texture mismatches that make me want to scream and flame the author. Also, I kept it under a 100K and didn't include any CyberDemons or Spiders.

Above reviewers are unduly harsh, I think. It's hardly the best thing to come out, visually or play-wise, but it's somewhat fun and doesn't look terrible. Certainly better than most of the dreck from its era. In addition to the swastika, there's also a little nukage pool that forms a hand flipping the bird at you if you look in the automap.

This is from June 1994. The designer says that "it has none of the STUPID door and texture mismatches that make me want to scream and flame the author", and inevitably the very first thing you see is a texture mismatch. There's a swastika floor design near the start, but that doesn't mean the author was a bad man. The level is pretty poor; it boils down to a handful of simplistic rooms with a key in each room, and then you flick the exit switch. Dolphin bag.

The fact that the author is a registered Civil Engineer doesn't prevent him from designing crappy WADs. Hey, after all he must design the "serious" stuff when at work, this is just a way to "let go" ;-)

      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.
