Reviews:

Anonymous	Not really bad, but a bit too amateurish in all aspects. Even in 1996, playing it @ UV didn't give much fun.	x
Zahid	very basic in all aspects...strange progression and dull gamplay...not bad for first attempt in 96's but didn't aged well...	x
Anonymous	This is from '96. now by 96 most people had figured out how to make good levels and we were past the 94, 95 stage of REALLY crappy wads. This wad feels very much like a 94 or 95 wad. The author states this is his first wad and it is an obvious one as alot of the areas are different themes. all in all it is a slightly generic level not horrifically bad but not fabulous either. the author shows promise. -RainboWarrioR	x
