| Description: |
After the intricate detail of Demon Base, I decided to go for the grand scale this time. Marvel at the views from the top of the enormous ice shelves! Actually, don't, because you'll die. It's not that easy. |

| Typical 1994-style wad with all its flaws: simple map layout, awful scenery due to textures misuse, texture misalingments, dull monster placements. Strafing around sectors 8/10 in the south part, looking to the top corners of the building, shows another design error. Gameplay is as expected. Thus reviewed as a 2014 map: WOT. I would carefully suggest you stop spending time in making a lot of maps like this, but instead try a single one according to 2014 style - without the 1994 pitfails. | x | |

| Ugly textures, a lot of strafe-running through curving corridors, had to backtrack a long way after running into a dead end. Didn't even complete it. | x | |

| My brother never quite got the hang of convincing outdoor architecture, which is a pity because this map almost lives up to the grandeur of its description. If you can overlook the consequent TARDIS-like effects, the texturing is consistent and restrained, atmosphere is good and the "Knee-Deep in the Dead" sky fits nicely. There are no big monsters but UV skill level is still quite a challenge because enemies swarm and there is little cover. An in-joke concerning his first map (MARTIN.WAD) made me smile. | x |
