Review by Kim Robinson on 28th July 2007

Googol is one of the largest levels you'll see - split off into four sections, each with creative puzzles to advance onto the next. The theme gets a little tedious after a while and sometimes it's easy to get disoriented, but the level flows rather well and layout is well thought out. Plenty of monsters to keep you busy (around 200), along with a few nice lighting and other sector effects.

Description             : This is the largest level I have ever built. Is it
                          the best? That's for you to decide. The level uses
                          1016 of the allowable 1024 sectors, 7008 of the
                          allowable 8192 walls and 1140 of the allowable
                          4096 sprites. It's divided into four sections.
                          Most of the dukematch start points are in the
                          Alpha section, but play can of course expand into
                          the other sections (I haven't tested this for
                          dukematch - it may be too big!)

While I was making this map, I didn't keep a close eye on the sector count
and I actually ran out! I had to go back and remove a lot of "decorative"
sectors, those that didn't actually affect the flow of the level. Once I
had made the map functional, I went back and replaced some of the detail.
