Anonymous	Five levels from May 2003, saved as five separate .wad files (although e.g. Map04.wad is Map04). Overall I liked 'em. The design is simple and old-fashioned but the gameplay is great, and very hard. Map01 is a good simple intro; Map02 is devilishly tricky, with an ultra-violent central arena. In fact the difficulty is man-sized throughout, almost impossible at times, e.g. Map05 with clumps of barons, archviles etc. But good overall.	x
Anonymous	I thought it was pretty good - while it may not be the best looking map ever, there is certainly a lot of attention to detail. The gameplay is awesome. The levels should be grouped together though.	x
Anonymous	Average level set. Nothing great in the looks department, ranging from average to a bit below average (at times). There's no excuse for thse levels not being lumped together into one wad file, it's not hard to do.	x
Anonymous	not bad doomer666	x
Anonymous	Not-so-great looks but fairly good design and gameplay.	x

------------------------NOTE:------------------------------------------
Death Revealed (TM) is an addon for Doom II.
Many High quality levels awaits you! 
But please agree to the terms that you
leave the levels as they are. Please don't modify my hard work!

GAME FEATURES

- Designated Single player levels, with limited deathmatch support, but no support for cooperative mode.
- Nice, varying levels
- Every level can be completed without cheating
- Every level can be completed with 100% kills, items and secrets, on every skill level, 
     except Nightmare!, which is untested.
- Took special care for detail and design
- Nice special effects (Light effects etc.)
- Well placed monsters
- Good wall, roof and floor texture alignmen
- Support for 4 of 5 skill levels. Nightmare! skill has not been fully tested, and it never     
     will be. Sorry, but I just find all these reloads to be all too insanely frustrating.
- Large number of levels.
- Easy on �I�m Too Young To Die�, and �Hey Not Too Rough�.
     Moderate to hard to �Hurt Me Plenty�. Very hard to extremely hard on "Ultra-      
     Violence�...      
- Offers levels where you have to locate hard to find necessities for completing each  
     level.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1: None of the levels are impossible, even if a level seems to be.

NOTE 2: Even though every level on �Ultra-Violence� skill has been 100% throughoutly playtested for completion 
without cheating with 100% secrets, and most kills, I strongly suggest you do not try �Ultra-Violence� unless 
you are really good. Some levels are very tough, and requires both patience and extreme skill.

NOTE 3: These levels are original Doom 2 levels, and thus they could *probably* run with original Doom2.exe, 
this would probably cause visplane overflows. PrBoom, GLBoom and ZDoom is highly recommended.
However, if you use ZDoom, please disable jumping etc, because once again, these are vanilla Doom2 levels.

LEVEL INFO

Grades for Difficulty: Easy / Medium / Hard / Very Hard / You're Dead

EPISODE 1 � From Hell They Came

Map01: Infested Entry.        Size: Small         Difficulty: Easy

A small and easy level, it might offer a tiny challenge on Ultra-Violence though.
Should be good as warmup for the upcoming nightmares...

Map02: Nuclear Tech Base.        Size: Medium        Difficulty: Easy

Another small challenge. This one is slightly harder than the former level, but still pretty easy.
I began designing this level a year ago for another project, which I later abandoned.

Map03: The House.        Size: Medium          Difficulty: Medium

Here the game gets a little bit harder. This level consists of a big house with a garden outside.
Get the three keys inside to get out to the garden, where the exit is.

Map04: Freeway.         Size: Large        Difficulty: Medium

This level takes place on a freeway and a few surrounding buildings. I�ve taken special care to make sure the 
freeway has a realistic look. I�ve even added lampposts to light up the pretty dark road.
Again, you will have to use three keys to enter the munitions plant where the next challenge awaits. 
To Find The Yellow Key, Make Sure To Watch All The Channels�

Map05: Munitions Plant.         Size: Large         Difficulty: Hard

This is the first real challenge of Death Revealed. You�ve reached the underground munitions plant where naturally 
there�s a lot of munition. Unfortunately this level is also plagued by a large dose of demons.
Make sure to clean out them all, and don�t forget to defeat the very first Cyberdemon of Death Revealed ;)
Except for the enemies and the ammo, look out for all the interesting light effects.

* NOTE: More levels to come as soon as they're done. *

THE STORY SO FAR...

------ THE STORY ------

Just go play it, damnit! :P
What? Still want a story? Okay, okay, okay...well, a never-before seen number of demons have invaded Earth. Billions are dead. You're being sent out on a mission to destroy the demons. 
Satisfied? :P
