Description		: mid-sized WAD with emphasis on large, 

			  fast-paced fights.  No tedious puzzles or

			  absurd deathtraps, but there are a couple of

			  surprises to keep you on your toes.



			  STORY: The UAC has developed experimental

			  time-travel technology and has determined

			  that in the future, the hellspawn are

			  destined to take over Earth.  You are

			  assigned to travel forward 600 years, to a

			  world ruled by the demons, and stop them

			  before they wipe out the few remaining

			  pockets of humanity.  You time-travel

			  successfully, to a futuristic metropolis

			  where you are surprised to see your own face

			  on "Wanted" posters everywhere.  Before you

			  have a chance to slip into hiding, a

			  "concerned citizen" reports you to the

			  zombie police, and after a short fight you

			  are taken into custody.  It seems that

			  before you travelled in time, you forgot to

			  return a library book...  a library book

			  which is now 600 years overdue.



			  Your demonic captors cackle heartily at your

			  lack of an alibi.  You are told that you are

			  being taken to see the feared

			  Librarian-Inquisitor.  Hours later, as you

			  wait in a holding cell of the library

			  complex, you remember you've still got your

			  trusty pistol and 50 rounds of ammo; what a

			  stroke of luck!  Time to go have some words

			  with the Librarian-Inquisitor and get out of

			  this place.
