                          TiC's WAD Review
---------------------------------------------------------------------

          In irregular intervals I will review a few PWADs.
   All reviews are totally subjective, I'll not beautify anything!

    If you have any suggestions, ideas or whatever; e-mail me at:
      denis@doomsday.shnet.org or denis.moeller@kiel.netsurf.de

    All files can be found on ftp.cdrom.com and its mirror sites.
      DON'T ASK ME TO SEND YOU ANY FILES NOR WHERE TO GET THEM.

         If you want me to review a special PWAD - email me.
              I will NOT review any deathmatch-levels!

            You can also read my reviews at this WebPage:

    Title: CAOS Series #1           Game: Doom 2
 Filename: CAOS1.ZIP                Size: 40k

   Author: Antonio Moreno         e-mail: maliani@cica.es

     Maps: MAP01                    Type: normal level
   Sounds: no
 Graphics: no
    Music: no

[ Level construction ] ----------------------------------------------

  Medium  sized level  with a bit  illogically  key-placement.  Some
unexpectable teleporter-lines, e.g. in the room with the yellow key.
You can teleport before getting the key, then you have to run trough
the whole level  again... could be  better.  The level  looks  a bit
rough, the author doesn't seem  to be very familiar with doing small
things. Nice light usage, but nothing special.

[ Texture design ] --------------------------------------------------

  Many textures are misaligned,  although often  you will not notice
it. I don't like the lift  (I think there is only one),  because the
lower textures are moving etc. Some doors are curious too.

[ Bugs ] ------------------------------------------------------------

  No Tuttie-Frutti, Medusa or HOM effects.

[ Enemies ] ---------------------------------------------------------

  Ultra Violence  isn't that hard.  A lot of Imps,  Former Humans, a
few Cacos etc.  At the end is an  Arch-Vile - very dangerous placed,
because there  are a few  Former Humans  too - and a door.  You know
what happens?

[ Things ] ----------------------------------------------------------

  Enough ammo and health,  only a few other things placed.  Could be
more of them.

[ Scoring ] ---------------------------------------------------------

  52%

  Worth downloading.  I don't  like boring,  illogical levels.   But
it's not that bad -  I don't want to  make worse all  further levels
coming in  this series. To the author: why not  training your skills
before doing a series?
