Reviews:

TimeOfDeath	map02 was cool	x
Anonymous	The other reviews are laughable, I wonder if they even played through the maps. This is a great set of 4 very well-balanced maps. The gameplay is quite different from The Darkening, just try it out for yourself.	x
Anonymous	It's not bad, but it's a bit harder than darken2.	x
Anonymous	You need The Darkening 2 (id=10782) to play this. Load darken2 first then gem01. Anyway, looks like a detailed skilled-play wad with mediocre layout. If you love The Darkening that much, just play it instead. 2/5	x
Anonymous	It's one of those white and grey checked levels. Not too bad, but these layouts bore me.	x
Anonymous	i coulden't get it to work but it probibly works good with zdoom	x

Base			: New levels from scratch. Inspired by Darkening2 and
 			  each other. Quake2 won't run on my CPU :).
Editors used		: Dck 3.0 & Wintex 4.3.
Bugs   			: Yes. A very important one too; you can NOT save after
			  you've crossed the lava-area on map02. I know it 
			  sucks but if you do alot of the monsters won't 
			  teleport. I could fix it but it would just take too 
			  long. And a secret-bug in a secret level i can't
			  tell you anything about.
			  			  
Construction time	: About 31 hours, half hour with this txt file, and
			  half hour with the demos.

***Map04 is meant for Deathmatch2 skill 5.***

			  David Shaw and Mark Klem for the music.
			  Afterglow for the dck-version of the Darkening2 grafx.
			  Citrus/O-Tech for the grafx.
			  Cocoon, VisionX (if you still play Doom:), you for
			  playing this wad, and everyone else...
			  And ofcourse my dear cd-collection.
