This is a very enjoyable Doom wad. The levels are snappy with only a few of them having monster counts above 100. The venues are nice and find a nice middle ground between classic Doom level design with modern attention to detail.

I think what knocks this one down a half mark is the abundance of archie traps. Especially towards the end, the game liked to pull the trick of having archviles spawn in after hitting a switch. It got exhausting.

I would prefer the first Nostalgia over this one. It's a tamer video game experience.
