(Links, secrets and more information at the bottom of the description)
'ello. Coming at you with 2 levels in one wad, and this is more like the usual Doom-experience that doesn't end up in a flash.
1st one starts off relatively easy, which mostly lasts through the level.
The biggest danger is the poison hole in the room with the blue key... Should you fall, there's no escape available. Other traps shouldn't pose that big of a problem.
Ammo is also somewhat plentiful, but not overly so.. You can also quite easily finish with 200/200, if you save the good stuff for the end.
2nd level picks up the difficulty: More than doubled enemy count and more traps as well.
Most traps are fine, but I wasn't sold on the dark sector 'hole'. It doesn't feel dangerous and the height difference is minimal, but if you step down to it, it's game over.
The last secret is another dangerous one, but you can tell, what you're suppose to do even, if you don't know the result of failing it. Trap is possible to beat on vanilla, but it's hard to get to the 'loot' with lights out. (Can see it in automap, tho)
Plenty of ammo, health and armor available, so it balances the level greatly to your favor.
Overall, it's decent action and mostly fair too, as long as you beware the traps.
It tries to follow the story visually with its locations and mostly does it ok, but just in that simplistic '94 style.
