Description : Back at the end of the 18th century, the demon
hell spawn first began secretly to colonise
the Earth. They landed near the South Coast of
England and slowly began to battle their way
North meeting resistance but usually crushing
it without mercy or compunction.
They finally reached Sussex and took over an old
building there called The Orangery. This building
is now owned by a UK Software House and there are
some who would say that the current incumbents bear
more than a passing resemblance to the demons and
monsters of old.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to
work your way through this huge area, blagging
everything that moves, locate all the keys and
escape through the exit. You should know early on
in the game where the exit is, but it's a hell of a
job to get through it and you will need to solve
many puzzles and avoid many traps before you achieve
this.
Notes: Those of you who know this building will notice
that I have been a bit carefree with the design
in places. This was necessary for two reasons,
first to make the game more playable and second
because the building design was so complex that
the DOOM engine was unable to cope and gave bad
'Hall of Mirrors' (HOM) errors. HOM errors are the
curse of WAD designers worldwide, and even though
every effort has been made to eradicate these
throughout this WAD, I am pretty sure there are
one or two places where you might find HOM -
especially in the big outside area.
