Spectacular visuals and engaging combat make this an absolute must play. There's a puzzle with a "Shoot the thing" answer that kind of comes out of left field and can be an easy place to get stuck if you're not on your toes, but that hardly stops the map from being a thrilling masterpiece.

Lutz sure makes some intriguing detailed work. This might actually be my favorite of his maps in all honesty, as it is laid out rather well and isn't confusing at all.

A pretty, fun map with a lot of fiendish traps. Heretic's features are used very well.

Some texture alignment needs work, but overall - a must play Heretic map! As a single map I pretty much enjoyed it as much as Curse or the best map (E3M7 IMO) in HTC. Very recommended! 5/5

Damn good. Architecture, lighting, detail, traps, item and monster placement... everything is very well done here, and all that with stock Raven textures. Stunning job Mr. Lutz.

Icebound is truly legendary. Every detail painstakingly ornate and intricate. Looking at the visuals alone, one can assume the game play suffers, but so rarely does a wad come out that looks so good, and plays so good! I rarely throw the phrases masterpiece and perfect out there, but Lutz's Icebound deserves are these things and more. 5/5 -FoH

man, I couldn't run it... do I have to have any other WAD to run this game? I tried with Heretic 1 and 2 but nothing changed.

A brilliant masterfully created unpretentious epic map, I really feel this one deserves a cacoward. This is a must own for Heretic fans! - DeathevokatioN

      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.
