[Epic 2] MAP06: Revived Bones (UV-Max Demo)

we're back to the tomb raiding and this level feels like it has more than the usual number of tricks up its sleeve, starting from the revenant that'll punch you right in the back of the head if you aren't on the ball at the start of the level. the super shotgun is right near the start but it's a little tricky to get at it, and doing so doesn't even count as a secret. but you're going to want it as soon as possible as the level is pretty heavily populated. notably there are crowds of imps in cages next to a few long hallways and the super shotgun is far and away the best means of dealing with that. there's lots of secrets we're obligated to tag as well, although they range from the useless (chainsaw...) to very generous stashes of health and ammo. the finale is punctuated with two archviles, but you get copious cover and there isn't too much worth reviving for them. far more dangerous is those long straight corridors with the imps - even after clearing them out, archviles and revenants will chase you back and forth and it's pretty easy to miss the one side chamber and get stuck taking a bunch of damage.
