                          TiC's WAD Review
---------------------------------------------------------------------

          In irregular intervals I will review a few PWADs.
   All reviews are totally subjective, I'll not beautify anything!

    If you have any suggestions, ideas or whatever; e-mail me at:
      denis@doomsday.shnet.org or denis.moeller@kiel.netsurf.de

    All files can be found on ftp.cdrom.com and its mirror sites.
      DON'T ASK ME TO SEND YOU ANY FILES NOR WHERE TO GET THEM.

         If you want me to review a special PWAD - email me.
              I will NOT review any deathmatch-levels!

            You can also read my reviews at this WebPage:

[ Level construction ] ----------------------------------------------

  A few labyrinths, hallways and rooms.  Nothing special and not the
best key-placement.  A very nice  trick near the end. :)  No special
light usage, just average  light and  a few  very light  rooms.  The
whole level isn't  well planed.  Some  'shoot-the-wall-to-open-door'
things are not very easy to find & understand - not very good.

[ Texture design ] --------------------------------------------------

  Kinda strange and ugly sometimes, but not 'misaligned', just some
curious combinations. Could be much better.

[ Bugs ] ------------------------------------------------------------

  No Tuttie-Frutti, Medusa or HOM effects.

[ Enemies ] ---------------------------------------------------------

  Played in UV only.  Not the easiest level, sometimes you will need
some weapons hidden in secrets.  But well placed enemies, not all in
one room. However, nothing special.

[ Things ] ----------------------------------------------------------

  Good amount of health and ammo.  There are some  rooms quite over-
loaded with things, other rooms are empty...

[ Scoring ] ---------------------------------------------------------

  65%

  Worth downloading. It's the author's first level, so I think it is
very good for this time, but just average considering other WADs.
