 +This dark dungeon incorporate Negke's characteristic style with blocks, lights, and panels of various sizes giving the sense of mysterious but functional architecture. The various sizes of lights reminded me of an optometry test, which turned out to be appropriate as the map features a "skull guardian" who watches your every move. As usual with this author what we have here is an interesting take on id (or perhaps Rogue) tech-dungeon Quake themes.

-This level offers a unique blend of the "red brick medieval" theme of The Palace of Hate blended with the "runic metal" theme of The Wind Tunnels. Both of these themes have distinct elements and their hybrid presentation is interesting here, although the scale does seem slightly off (a little too small). It is where the layout approaches the "edge" of the complex and fog leads to the void that the design seems best in proportion, so more of this and perhaps darker and more uneven lighting could improve the ominous sense of this environment. Still, a solid map and more maps using wind tunnels are always welcome. +
