Hexen: Deathking of the Dark Citadel does nothing to distinguish itself as anything more than a poor map pack. In fact, the level design is a significant downgrade, and with no new weapons or enemies, there is no real reason to play this (other than to be a completionist). In short, the strengths of the base game are largely missing and the weaknesses are amplified.

PROS:
- Great art style from the base game
- Fun items from the base game

CONS:
- DosBox port, look at installing with GZDoom
- By the middle of the expansion it becomes clear that there is nothing new and the same few encounters will be repeated for its duration
- Poor level design, perhaps more confusing than the base game
