      "description": "The Pedestal is a single-map PWAD designed for DOOM II, featuring a compact layout with 30 sectors and 111 things. It emphasizes challenging combat with a heavy presence of powerful monsters including archviles, cyberdemons, barons, mancubi, revenants, and spider masterminds, totaling 28 enemies. The map offers a generous arsenal with all major weapons and ample ammo and health pickups, including a megasphere and soulsphere, supporting sustained fights. The environment uses classic DOOM II textures with a mix of techbase and hellish elements, and the gameplay is straightforward without keys or teleportation, favoring linear progression. It is well-suited for deathmatch on higher skill levels and compatible with vanilla DOOM II.",
