Anonymous	This is dated September 1995. It's a homage to "Downtown", although it's smaller and simpler, and it looks poor. The author went on to bigger and better things, and this is very much a formative work. Just like the original Downtown, the gameplay has a lot of wandering about. There's an irritating teleport puzzle. A decent amount of action, but nowhere near the quality of "Hoover Dam".	x
Anonymous	Looks really amateurish. Also it hasn't got really much detail and is confusing.	x
Anonymous	I found the fights average. I also found the map confusing and I hate teleport puzzles. For UV difficulty there was either too much health, plasma ammo or no tough situations. Putting that aside, it is a well designed map with good gameplay. 3 stars - Starburst.	x
Anonymous	Excellent map, with great gameplay, from the author of the legendary "Hoover Dam". Nice sequences, and plenty of ammo and powerups for plenty of monsters. A few lesser areas (the teleporting puzzle for example) are a little annoying, but overall, a highly recommended download. --4/5	x
Anonymous	an awsome wad! its tricky sometimes (the library teliporting part) but it is all in all an awsome fun level!!!	x

To play this PWAD file, unzip it into the directory where you put 
DOOM 2 then start DOOM 2 like this:

DOOM2 -FILE METRO13.WAD -WARP 13 
===========================================================================

You used to live in a nice apartment in a nice part of the city, but 
things have changed.  You probably should have become suspicious when
that Baron of Hell became your landlord.  Now when you go out on the 
streets, bullets and fireballs whiz by your head. (And you thought New
Yorkers were rude!)  Well soldier, it's time to clean up this town!

You start the level in your one room apartment.  You've got to battle 
your way through the city and mop up the mess. Clean out the vermin that 
have infested the buildings in your neighborhood.  Don't forget to visit the 
library and stop off at the courthouse too.  The only way to escape this hell 
is to find the underground train station.  Get your ass on that train and get 
out of town!

Time's a wasting - so get out there and paint the town Red!  With blood!
