Zahid	decent oldie	x
yakfak	ahead of its time! difficulty is only casual but that's the best difficulty level, after all =P	x
Anonymous	Nice atmosphere for '94 but boring gameplay. The author should've built the rooms first and the outside area second so the level design would've been less cramped and repetitive. Also, 1 required secret. 3.5/5	x
Anonymous	The "Doom 2" version included has a missing texture.	x
Anonymous	epic	x
Anonymous	A decent '94 WAD. The replacement night sky graphic, included as a separate file in the ZIP, is more appropriate than the standard E1 sky, IMO. The weapons placement is odd - there is a plasma rifle, but it is right next to the exit. However, you can use a teleport to circumvent key doors (an oversight on the author's part) and exit early. One of the imps (Thing 172) behind the crate barricade has the Deaf attribute set and is out of sight, so you can never kill it, hence 99% kills only. - N_A	x
Anonymous	This is a decent level from long ago. The complex nowadays seems undetailed, but it's still impressively large, and would probably have taxed a 386. The gameplay doesn't amount to much more than exploring a lot of similar-looking grey rooms in a giant building, but it's nostalgic and has a stark beauty of its own.	x

Description             : Specially designed for D/Match or Co-op.  Fight
                          in and around a huge complex building, finding
                          the secret transporters and weapon caches to

Notes                   : - All transporters are hidden behind secret doors, 
                            so you'll have to look to find them.  
                          - All weapons are included in this level for 
                            ultimate carnage.
