That was a fun one. I was only rudely interupted once. Those crusher traps always seem to catch me off guard. I especially liked map 7, even though I had to start over from dying, it was still a blast. Messed around in map 8 and lost the bfg, but in-fighting came to the rescue. The final arena was a little bland, but it played well and I had fun.

Lots of fun to play, definitely still holds up today. I find myself playing this wad often, it's not technically impressive, but a classic

Perhaps one of the most influential and one of the greatest WADS of 1994. The Evil Unleashed is a really well-done WAD episode pack for Doom 1 (1993). This episode pack is very neat and very excellent in terms of the structure of  the 9 levels, the many secrets and traps, the well designed textures, the good enemy layout, and the weapons layout. I consider The Evil Unleashed to be a truly a great wad because considering this was released in 1994, a time when doom mapping was just beginning and the many tools of the trade that we use to this very day were just seeking development and their first releases. Overall, The Evil Unleashed is a very very good wad and considering it was released in 1994, it is one of the first wads to incorporate a polished map set. 5/5 :)

Mapset which was in that time (Sep 1994) far, far above average. 9 large adventures with smart layout, good texture use, nice decoration, and excellent gameplay with a lot of clever but playable traps @ UV. It's so good, that even in 2015, 21 years later, playing most of the levels still give a lot of fun. Therefore overall, rated as 1994 map: 5* legendary. BTW nofi, but giving this 2* featureless does not show historical perspective, and is really unfair.

Good fun, and surprisingly tough for something this old. I was pleasantly surprised by the low-key use of mock sector-on-sector in the very first level.

Maybe I'm just a tough old man, but this has a lot more ammo than I needed. A fun level regardless, and another reason not to throw your old DOOM.EXE away.

If you didn't count Aliens, this would be 1994 release of the year. Hands down.

Bigger and better than sudtic, this is probably among the best '94 wads available. 5/5 warranted for that alone.

4/5 Like SUDTIC in relentless atmosphere, with gameplay much improved. More inventive traps, more intelligent placement of large monsters, and superb use of vertical displacements to create hitscan ambushes. Again, however, a full episode replacement requires a certain amount of variety in architecture and difficulty, and this falls short somewhat.

Just like "slaughter untill death", this is one of the rare "evergreens" that stands the test of time somehow.Several levels where quite stylish(!?), and there were a few moments where the gameplay looked almost like the pre-hell revealed monster frenzy.Go figure!I'm serious,it's worth a play!

This is my favorite wad from 1994. It's a lot better than its predecessor. It's fairly easy by today's standards, but more challenging than most of its contemporaries. I especially enjoyed the final showdown. It made me feel like I had accomplished something. -LBG

4/5 - An improvement in almost every way over SUD. The fights are harder, architecture more impressive, and even more Demons to kill. The fist replacment has enough oomph to sell the Berserker pack. The only thing I don't like are the packs of Zombiemen to slaughter but I can hardly decry the rest of the WAD for a feature that hardly dominates any single one of these fine maps. - KMX E XII

My new favorite 1994 pwad. I actually prefer this to ID's own Episode 3! The level designs were way beyond anything else at the time. Like, the only flaw I found is that the secret level doesn't require the yellow key to complete when it obviously should. Still, 5/5

Fantastic '94 episode replacement. Large maps with 200+ monsters each, heavy on exploration. A must play for the classic Doomer. Playing with fastmonsters and pistolstarts made me really love/hate those demons. 5*

Now this is how to build Doom levels boys and girls! Simple 1994 maps that require v1.666 minimum ( LOL ) but require a little more skill than the original Doom levels ... I remember playing this in the mid - late 90's and having to upgrade from v1.2. It took about 15 minutes to download the update with my new 14k modem, but it was worth every 1p/min off-peak. 5/5

      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.
    • By MrSkeltal · Posted
      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.
