Anonymous	This is a relatively modern castle map. It's modest compared to the typical castle level of 1995, with only 110 baddies, although it has all the old problems; it's basically a large square area with several small square undetailed stone rooms. It has a typical dining hall, and the design is vintage 1995. The shotgun sound effect has a click on the end. If you fall into the moat at the start you can't get out.	x
Anonymous	An entertaining entry in the one-man-siege genre.	x

Episode and level #:    Map 01, Doom2
Single player:          Yes
Cooperative 2-4 player: Only if you can't do it on your own. 
Deathmatch 2-4 player:  Technically possible, but probably wouldn't be much
			fun.
Difficulty settings:    Yes, but anything lower than UV is too easy ;-)
New sounds:             Yes
New music:              Nope, just crank up the Nirvana.
New graphics:           Yes
General Kick-arseiness: Yes
Demos replaced:         Demo 1 is a recording of hurt me plenty for those who
			seriously need help with the level. I didn't do it on
			UV because I didn't want to give all the suprises away.
			Oh, and I don't usually suck so much at the end.
