Anonymous	This is dated July 1998. NB you've got to have Gothictx.wad for it to work properly. It's a large, square castle with 369 baddies, and the gameplay doesn't fuck about. It has an irritating habit of making monsters pop up out of the ground right in front of you, and the sound replacement makes every missile sound the same, which is confusing. Apart from that it's good unsentimental fun, with about three separate boss battles and tonnes of action.	x
Anonymous	Tested with Skulltag, ZDoom, Vanilla Doom 2 and TNT, and it didn't work! "R_FlatNumForName: ADEL_F62 not found"!	x
Anonymous	not so good, doesn`t look like an interesting castle, squarish, no atmosphere, boring monsterplacement,... . 2.5/5	x
Anonymous	4 well-earned stars for a good-looking castle map that kicked my ass all over the place on HMP.	x
Anonymous	Pretty map, Darn tough, even on skill 3.	x
Anonymous	A very nice map with tough as nails gameplay.	x

Lmp                     : I recorded one in UV using Legacy 1.4.  It will be posted on                                Opulent's DSDA site or write to get a copy.

Description:

This is a huge castle with a lot of stained glass windows.  The length is medium-to-long.

All skill levels are playable and have been tested/recorded for sufficient ammo and health. UV is best played by experienced Doomers but Hurt Me Plenty or Easy are also a lot of fun.  There is plenty of health and ammo, especially on skill 3. It would be GREAT to see some LMPS in skill 3 or 4.

This wad can be played using vanilla doom but legacy doom's resolution looks so much better and legacy is very easy to use.
