Anonymous	Considering it was made in 1995, a great mapset, and it's such a strange feeling to play through all the IC series at once, gives you a feel how far doom mapping has advanced since. A recommended play, especially if you have a taste for good old timers. A 4.	x
Anonymous	meh, nothing special, just basic shoot em up doom. The lack of interesting design grew tiresome after a while and the ceiling traps in level 2 are lame.	x
Anonymous	This mapset was pretty cool. It's not as good as your later levels, but it's still fun. The default textures didnt suit the maps.	x

Anonymous	Its very good and challenigng with big levels. Detail is average but this wad deserves 5 stars because of its gameplay. -pc	x
Anonymous	ICDoom2, by Ian Cunnings (Feb. 05, 1995). Please, the uploaders, be careful!!! Ahhh... The IC Series, made between 1995 and 2005!!!! What a wonderful world! Ian, you're quite surely one of the best mappers for Doom, and your Series belongs to the great history of Doom. 5/5 - Jive	x

* Play Information *

Episode and Level #     : MAPS 01-03.
Single Player           : Yes
Cooperative 2-4 Player  : Yes (Intended mode of play, with more enemies)
Deathmatch 2-4 Player   : Yes*
Difficulty Settings     : Yes
New Sounds              : No
New Graphics            : Yes (Cool new title picture, thanks Matt')
New Music               : Yes
Demos Replaced          : Yes, all three (DooM2 Version 1.9 Format)

* I have spent a little time placing Deathmatch starts on each of the 3 
  levels, and have concentrated them around a key centre part of each map. 
  I'm not saying that it will play very well, but if you try these levels
  in Deathmatch, you'll probably get a better game if you stay near these 
  key areas. Remember, this wad was made with Single Player / Co-Operative
  play in mind.

* Level Descriptions *

Map 01 : The Prison.
         You arrive outside the prison compound and must make your way in.
         Clear out the mess and learn more about the location of the hidden
         temple.

Map 02 : Underground Caverns.
         You find yourself underground, in a series of caverns, which seem
         to make up an ancient temple. The only way out is through, so you
         had better get going.

Map 03 : The Final Confrontation.
         After negotiating your way through the caverns, 
         you find yourself faced with what seems to be the ancient God 
         of the temple. To get out alive, you must defeat it and 
         it's evil minions.

* Construction *
