This is a small puzzle / Arch-Vile jump style map, the map itself is not bad at all, with some interesting design choices, especially at the circular towers, and the puzzle trickery is not bad. The bad section is the lower platforms that keep goes up and down and uses the vanilla stock slow usage, maybe in a different way it will be better.

Only start is good, you need to think how to get out. My first though was that this is proto-Terry trap, but you can escape. But then, this map turns into crap. Annoying lifts and switches part, and than kinda ok fight in pillar room.

Absoloute crap! Makes no sense and has no exit! An Archvile, a Mesasphere and you all in the same tiny room with a Super Shotgun and a bazillion shells outside the window and no way to get back up to the platforms if you fall off. Don't waste your time with this!

Some interesting ideas, but somehow not all that satisfying.

This is dated May 1995. It's a puzzly level that doesn't really work. At the start you have to be blown out of a room by an archvile onto a platform outside, and then there are lots of switches and lifts which are fiddly and unentertaining, and you can get stuck. It builds up to a final battle that's decent but needed all the monsters to attack you at once; the ending is an anti-climax. The level had ideas (the opening is clever) but they mostly weren't good ones.

      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.
