Misc. Author Info       : Old fart playing with his wads. I like designing 
                          the arenas.  This is the 23rd wad I've made so far
                          that's fit for distribution.  The other wads are:

* Play Information *


Game                    : DOOM II
Level #                 : MAP1
Single Player           : No, just to take a look... 
Cooperative 2-4 Player  : No.  
Deathmatch 2-4 Player   : YES!  Kill yer buddies...This is a Deathmatch 2.0
                          wad designed for 2-4 players.  It is a very simple
                          arena, with some secrets, and should be easily used
                          by two players, with 3 optimum and 4 more hectic.
                          There's an exit switch for scoring, [behind candles]
                          in southern central court.  Most of the play is very 
                          obvious and straight forward, but there are several  
                          secrets to discover that will help play.  This isn't 
                          a remake of Pandora.wad, but an entirely different
                          wad from scratch.  I just like the name Pandora, and
                          although this wad is not very similiar, I feel it's 
                          got some of the spirit of that original wad.  The 
                          working title of this wad was "boxed.wad" but I felt
                          it needed a better name for distribution............ 
   
                          I hope you enjoy playing this wad...........[woof!]

Difficulty Settings     : YES!  The BFG is only available in the skill setting
                          1-2.  The setting of skill 3 has the SuperShotgun,
                          RocketLauncher, PlasmaGun, Chaingun and Chainsaw.  
                          Skill setting 4-5 has all these but has severe ammo
                          restrictions placed on it, as well as some health
                          missing.  The Berserk packs are in all settings.
                          In this way you may customize your play somewhat to
                          suit your skills and weapons preferences.....[woof]
