Reviews:

Anonymous	A level from 1996 which tries too hard to add "realism" to a spaceship environment and too little to make the game exciting. Seats, tables or thin halls make the monsters get stuck and a REJECT issue makes some of them dumb, weakening an opposition that wasn't hard to begin with. Starting with the SSG and pistol and having you go back to the start for ammo, or to the medic room for healing, adds to the dullness. [2/5] ~Chain Mail (07/2012)	x
Anonymous	Its a strange techbase map with an obvious retro glaze on it. It plays around with some interesting concepts such as returning to the start of the map for restocking and many-to-1 teleporting. 3/5 -FoH	x
Anonymous	nomal...easy	x
Anonymous	I thought it was ok despite the clumsy design and sometimes unbalanced monster placement. 3 stars.	x
Anonymous	quite pathetic techbase/spaceship theme level with million of copypasted closets fast doors etc **	x

To play this PWAD file, unzip it into the directory where you put 
DOOM2 then start DOOM2 like this:

STORY:  EPISODE 1
        You are NAR MORTIS top galactic bounty-hunter.  You have 
        been hired by what is left of the population of Earth to  
        prevent the escape of the evil hellspawn that ravaged them 
        many years previously.  You arrive in the battered lump of 
        metal you affectionately call your ship, on the larger of 
        Jupiter's moons: GANYEMED. The hellspawn is on board a
        freighter which is about to depart.  You must make your way
        through the now infected moonbase until you get to the 
        freighter (Through the YELLOW DOOR).

(This is the best story line we could think of so no 
        laughing at it please!!)

COMMENTS/HINTS
We really hope you have at least half as much fun playing this as 
we had making it (heard that somewhere before?). We do have a few 
things we like to say:
        Use the teleport booths wherever possible: they make it much
        quicker
        There isn't much ammo about the station but loads on your ship
        so you may have to go back to reload a couple of times
        If you can't get the red card, but can see it, operate a
        'different looking' piece of the bar
        If you get stuck once you have the yellow card try using 
        your gun not your head!
        Look out for:   the one way mirrors
                        the two soldiers finding relief
                        the operating theatre, plus utensils
                        Wally (just kidding)

Difficulty              : We had some difficulty explaining this one:-
                          If you want it easy (wimp) play it on: 
                          I'M TOO YOUNG TO DIE or HEY, NOT TOO ROUGH 
                          If you want it remotely challenging play it on:
                          HURT ME PLENTY or ULTRA VIOLENT
                          If you are truly suicidal play it on:
                          NIGHTMARE
                          It's kind of obvious really!!
