Fortunately for many of us, he has also released detailed hint manuals for his add-ons.   Paal's early releases were tough, but once he started making his own EXEs with "Wolf Hour", he turned it up a notch: now there were 4 keys and poison pools to deal with. He has since added customized EXE files to his first 3 add-ons, making "Wolf-Extra" into a special version and adding the unused levels to episodes 2 and 3 of "Enemy Around the Corner". Thus made redundant: Wolf-Extra (11/07/99) updated 09/14/00, now discontinued.   Paal's biggest release is "The Tower", winner of the first Dome Award in January 2002. It features 4 keys, pools of poison, deadly purple chalices and crosses that protect you from them, teleporters, explodable barrels, bombs, and a missile launcher!   All the latest versions and hint manuals are available at the excellent Poet's Wolfenstein Page, winner of the Spear of Destiny Fan Club's "Spear of Excellence Award", amongst others. The site also features Paal's source code tutorials and level design tips, a poll on his add-ons, and more.   Looking forward to Wolf-Extra III!   Andy Nonymous.   Paal Olstad's Releases - The Dos mods are no longer available.

A Doll's House Original 1 Level Version A Doll's House & Ghosts Complete Edition 09/19/08 Originally released as 2 sets, later partially combined - 'A Doll's House' and 'Ghosts: A Doll's House Addon'. Latest update of 'complete edition' is 03/04/10. 21 (complete edition) All None A Doll's House offers a lot of tough action, adventure elements and puzzle solving, in the tradition of Paal's previous games. But the game is more relaxed than his previous ones. It has the same number of enemies on all difficulty settings, but they are noticeably harder to beat on the higher difficulty levels. The edition containing 'Ghosts' includes maps made by guest authors. Credits are listed within the game. Contributions To Others' Releases Add-on Name: Release Date Information Levels Files Included Version Required Our Opinion new 30 11/27/97 by Gary Ragland, Paal made a VSWAP for this 11/20/99 30 Maps, Vswap Wolf 3D Reg 1.4 Layout and style are similar to the original game, though it's probably a little more difficult. Well designed. Beyond Mutantstein Special Edition 12/25/02 by various artistes - Paal contributed a level - map 20 21 All None A 'Tribute To John Bucksnort'. Mostly excellent levels quality. Lots of graphics, sounds and code changes. An excellent set - one that John would have been proud of - and serves very well as a tribute to the 'mutant maker'. The Twilight Zone 01/10/04 by Joe M, uses the Tower source code 21 All, except audiohed file Reg Spear Levels are quite extensive though a few are not that original. Lots of new graphics and sounds.
