Short Description       : 4 wads, empty land, castle, river, devil palace.

Description             : You have the selfconfindence to go through
                          the gates to evil land and wipe out the
                          devil himself.

                          The game is constructed for a single player,
                          multi plays or dm (deathmatch).
                          After the fourth map the game restarts on the
                          second map, which is good for dm.
                          On the second lap you get all weapons to play with.
                          The first map is an intro (no dm). If you have
                          any problems then change to a lower skill.
