Even for a 1996 map too primitive in all aspects. Not horrible, but just meh. Rated as such: small 2*.

A very basic 4 door hub. Nothing really interesting happens and the large empty rooms look boring. Uses a glitchy sounding midi of Phantom of the Opera.

Poor; and impossible to finish, because the author forgot to assign a linedef action to an early door, thus making it a wall with a door texture. The design is large and blocky and I gave up hope in the very first room - which naturally leads you on a wild goose chase, if you go around clockwise and start at the top. Has some backwards speech, the author saying "surrender to the spell" with an echo. There's a reason why Don LaFontaine gets so much work - only a few people sound imposing.

I'm cutting this guy a lot of slack since this is a mid 90's wad & the level editors back in the day were not as easy to use as doombuilder. So i'll rate it as one (As if this was 1996) 3/5. Nice music, boring action, boring textures, and so on. This is a typical mid 90's style from a high school student at the time who was relatively new to map editing. If somebody made something like this in the 2000's or 2010's, it would have received a 1/5.

The WAD in general is okay, for it's time. But, it being too easy, and showing a lack of true thought. 2/5 -Darknight98x

The map works fine, but it's just way too easy (and rather bland). The only way I could find to make it interesting was to play it pacifist-style, and even that isn't hard.

      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.
