About This File

You enter the mountain dwelling on the orders given you by the Master Wizard of your small village. You are only an apprentice, and the task given you and your companions is to retrieve the fabled "HELL STAFF" for the Master Wizard. As you enter the small tavern through a side door, lightning strikes outside the and sends a large tree crashing down blocking the door. Lucky for you, the tavern is empty. Now not only do you need to find the HELL STAFF, you also need to find a way out of this Hell infested mountain ruins...and try to stay.... alive.

This level is pretty high quality, with good attention to detail and pacing. It's not very hard or heavy on opposition though, though you may still be glad you have items in the inventory once in awhile. The problem with this level is the rather confusing progression. It can be solved if you take your time to check the automap for clues, but won't work if you're impatient or in lack of time.

 

HINT: at one point you'll encounter a small wooden door behind a priest bas-relief hidden door. There's no clue whatsoever, but that door needs to be shot to open! I had to open the editor to find that out, as no information got provided about that.

      Unloved

      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.
