Overview
I've reviewed other maps by PROLIFIC dEaTH WORKSHOP with there undoubtable 95' Quality. If you like more linear maps you'll love this one, its a fairly strait shot, there are only a few places you will need to go over more than once. The map does not have any HOM's or highly noticeable texture misalignments, good quality.

Difficulty 7
I won't lie to you doomers, unless your a n00b to doom this wad is not that challenging, there was only one difficulty level, maybe in nightmare it would be more of a challenge, I played through the entire level without dieing once, I ran out of ammo once, but that was carelessness, and I found more within a minute. There are no real hard monsters to beat mostly imps, demons, and zombies.

Level Design 7
Good Quality especially considering the release date. The Level move Really smoothly even the room in which you have to walk along a maze of thin platforms. The map is very linear though, its pretty darn hard to get stuck unless you are very, very unobservant. The architecture is average of the 95' wads, but the level will hold interest through the entire play.

Replayability 5
This wad has some replayabilty, but there realy isn't much to see after the first time through, its a very straitfoward wad.

Deatmatch Factor
The authors say this wad has been designed for deathmatch, I don't know if it would be the most fun for a DM, a bit too linear/big, but its DM supported so what the heck why not.

PrOs---- Good quality
- Fun gameplay

CoNs---- Too Linear
--- Bit too easy
