"Scientist 2" is a megawad with 20 mostly medium-sized maps. With many new textures, they're all quite good looking, especially the nature-themed maps towards the end.
The wad has a nice storyline: you're chasing a mad scientist who teleports away every time you think you just got him, until you meet him again in a later map. That's a very cute idea.
There were only two things that I didn't like: there are many very dark areas which was a pain in combination with the second evil: the Chaingunners! Be sure to find them in every new area you reach, firing at you from long distance or well hidden, before you even notice them.
But apart from this, I really enjoyed it.
