      "description": "This WAD contains a single map designed for DOOM2, focusing on a castle-themed environment. The level features a moderate monster presence typical of demons and imps, with no added sounds or graphics, relying on the base game assets. Difficulty varies with known bugs increasing on higher skill settings, and the map supports single-player and cooperative play but not deathmatch. The layout is linear, emphasizing escape through the castle with some dynamic lighting effects for atmosphere. Resources and combat style are balanced for a moderate challenge without overwhelming hitscanner swarms or boss encounters. The WAD is compatible with vanilla DOOM2 and does not require advanced source ports.",

I must escape before I'm transformed into\na zombie. I'll get out of this place, back to the outpost where I was before the demons captured me. I must not fail.\n\n* Tips *\n\nYou shouldn't waste bullets to the first enemy, beat it with fists.\nThe Demon Castle is dark, so try to hear where the monsters are and shoot where the sound comes from.\nSometimes it's good to beat some imps or demons with fists. It's not really that difficult...\nIn the end, you better save those cells you got... until you open the red door.\n\nHappy hunting."
