About This File

Scientists and Archeologists alike speak of the lost continent of Atlantis, where technology even greater than ours was thriving, and people could live in peace. But Atlantis disappeared. Many say it was a volcano, others say it sunk. You were one of the Archeologists involved in finding Atlantis, and one day you were knocked out by some Barons nearby the site. Once you woke up, you were in a place that was very unfamiliar to you. You sprang up and realized that you were in Atlantis! But the cause of it's destruction was an invasion demons! To live, you must fight, and if you win, you will live to tell the world of the truth of A T L A N T I S

Fun stuff except that there are some problems with stuck monsters and inaccessible items. The design isn't particulary interesting but it is competent enough. I found it to be quite low on ammo, good thing I managed to locate the secret berserk. Very cute idea with drawing "maps" of some rooms with small sectors.

This is a decent level that would have been very good in 1994/early 1995, but it seems old-fashioned for 1997. The design work is simple - Atlantis is a stone dungeon - but the flow and the gameplay are solid. There are too many inescapable pits, a couple of which don't even kill you, so you have to noclip out of them. There are some consoles in the first room that you have to press.

this one is quite hard, but it surely needs another name than Atlantis. It's quite bare, but quite difficult as well. ~1/5

Not a bad effort. Good action, plus you have to do a little figuring to survive. This kid was doing finer work than a lot of the grownup wad designers you see around here (although perhaps that's a function of much larger amounts of free time :-) ).

Interesting wad with a few problems. Inescapable pits, lack of ammo and author forgot to set one of doors to use yellow key so map can be finished much quicker. Also, RL is a secret which is hard to find (unless you're spamming use on every wall) but seeing rockets everywhere made me think that I somehow missed it.

      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.
