    Title: Wizard                   Game: Heretic
 Filename: WIZARD.ZIP               Size: 52k

     Maps: E1M1                     Type: normal level
   Sounds: No

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

  Medium - big level,  well  constructed.  Some rooms  appear  to be
useless and the  key-placement is not the best. There is a switch in
a room that opens the door to the end.  The whole room is not on the
map and you don't know where to enter the room. This sucks. You have
to cross some large rooms twice and everytime there are new monsters
coming from  opened secret  rooms - that's  quite challenging.  Good
light at all. Two keys needed to complete it.

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

  Mostly good aligned.  In fact I didn't  see any really  misaligned
one.  The author uses different  textures for  different rooms, that
is good to remember parts  of the level.  Oh, no - there is one part
I didn't like; there  are some not very  good aligned  grey hallways
and rooms... but that's all.

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

  No Tutti-Frutti, Medusa or HOM effect.

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

  Good placed enemies. Another hard level.  Very annoying enemies on
walls above the player. I think the author has the shareware version
only, because there are no enemies of registered Heretic.

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

  Not much, could be more ammo.  Health is enough. There are several
time bombs - too  much I  think.   Like the  enemies,  there  are no
weapons of registered Heretic.

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

  73%

  Worth downloading.  It's  a bit  boring to  search for  the room I
mentioned above... and much too hard on skill 4, I think.
