From the author(s):
After fighting your way through the
final end boss of INFERNO, youreturn to the plannet Earth after a mission
well done. You, B.J. BLAZKOWICZ, were part of a big N.Y.C. ticker tape
parade to celebrate the end of hell's reign of terror! You then go back
home to your wife and kids in your 5'th Avenue penthouse.
While watching Wheel Of Fortune, right when you think you
solved the puzzle, a special report interupts your programming. You change
the channels, but ALL the stations are airing a report on something
horrible happening near the top of Mount McKenley. Daemons from hell are
building a main HQ building to try and take over the earth! This gets you
very angry, after all, you thought you solved the puzzle on Wheel Of
Fortune!
You knew what you had to do. You had to go to Mt. McKenley and teach those
ingrates a lesson before things get out of hand.
You arrive to the base from Hell atop Mt. McKenly. It's a big
metal building filled to the rim with hell's creatures. You walk in
and find you are too late. Hell already started throwing Earth into
total chaos, but YOU can reduce the effect!
Reports state that 24 hours ago they started sending
daemons out into the world, through a special EXIT switch scattering these
bastards all over the plannet. You trip an infared beam, and the creatures
re-wire the switch to only bring you to E1M2, and all enemies are on
full allert to search and destroy you! Most of them are hiding secretly
throughout the building waiting for you! You never knew anything about
their technology anyway, so you're objective is not to fix the switch, but
to clear the "metal halls of hell" so no more creatures will wreak havoc
on Earth. After all, if all are dead, no one can fix the switch, and no
one can transport them- selves to the four corners of the globe!
Go in there and kick daemon butt! If you fail, Hell on Earth
will
become a force too great for all armies to face.

Review
=======
Heading back through 1994, many early levels were made, one that stands
out from this period would definitely have to be the Fiffy series by
George Fiffy. Each levels design have so many different things to offer,
of course as to be expected, themes were a bit off having a good number of
textures from about almost every theme thought of. Some areas I could come
to say were less than satisfactory, but overall rooms had plenty of
different features to them to keep it entertaining.
Playing through Fiffy will bring out a very big variety of different
gameplay, from simple room puzzles to the traditional cyberdemon/mastermind
boss battles, this level set is sure to hit everyones favorite style at
least once. Some of the levels are kind of difficult in being that you can
hit a switch and have no clue what opened your just left to explore with
out a clue, but for the most part you usually should be able to find it
with the exception of Fiffy 6, which has a switch that open the exit but
would take anyone forever to find. Starting off from Fiffy 1, the levels
are kinda tough, but as you progress be prepared for it to get even
harder.
I have to give out some points to some of the nice tricks pulled in this
level, I was quite impressed with how the author used switches and keys so
well. Some interesting locations also boost the fun factor a bit. I
noticed in later levels in this set, the author pulls some weird tricks
with the sky introducing a room that seems to have no outside walls. I
would have to say the author has done plenty of stuff to leave his mark in
the originality section.
Overall - 7 out of 10
If nothing else I recommend Fiffy 2, which I do believe was the best out
of the whole series, but each level really had its moments.
