Currently, the best among the competently designed episodic mods for Heretic. Uses all the necessary hi-end editing and design tricks to build a gorgeous fantasy world for you to do a grand battle-adventure in. Dead on with thematic design, color design, geometry and architectural detailing. And while it is not perfect, lacking polish in quite a few places and even sporting rookie mistakes in some techniques that surprisingly neighbor side-by-side with other really advanced and well-executed concepts...But there is one critical key element that distinguishes this mod from the handful of its high-end competitors. Curse of D'Sparil does not try to change the formula that works. It does not try to pound Heretic mechanics into something that it was never meant to be or does not work well with. It does not try to reinvent the wheel. It takes the existing wheel, - and works with it, and works well. Combined with the competent design and creative tricks - this mod is easily a 10-score.
