Overview:
This is a very fun mod and map combination. The monsters are changed around quite a bit, complete with new skins and weapons. The maps are set in medieval, so if you think like I do, you would expect traps and tricks. This is exactly how it is, walk through a door, fight about 5 monsters, then 5 more spawn around you once those are dead. Couldn't be much better.

 

Architecture:
Very nice style,complete with block walls, missing floor tiles, slanted grates, slanted walls, and slanted doors, medieval looking as the theme implies. The only thing I do not like about this is that some areas are hardly navigable. Although it may be hard to navigate through, it helps against those pesky vores (spiders that lunge flying heatseaking purple spiky balls). Other than navigation, architecture is very nice.

Lighting:
Lighting is just about perfect. Kona has placed the lights so the map has a spooky ambience effect that keeps you on your toes. I do have 1 little problem with the lighting though, in many areas it is hard to see where you are going, so you pretty much have to hug the walls and pay attention to the floor so you do not fall through, this can be very annoying when trying to watch out for traps and holes in the floor.

Texturing:
Many of these textures are from the gothic/medieval set that ID had made. If they're not ID, then they are colored versions of ID's textures. There are also many completely origional texutres though. I have seen better use of textures, but don't get me wrong, Kona did use these textures to their fullest, the floors, walls, and ceilings are easily distinguishable, so the map does not look too plain or overdone.

Skill:
If you are not very good, I highly suggest you go to easy skill. I was having a hard time on normal, and I am pretty much a pro. I have no more to say about the skill, this is excellent.

Item Placement:
Pretty good, everything was placed quite nicely. It might be just me, but I think Kona did not place enough health. I can't count how many times I had to load the game again, just because I did not have enough health to get through a certain spot, and as you may or may not know, this can get very frusterating. The weapons are placed just right, you almost always have ammo and a gun to use.

Final Comment:
Good job Kona, very nice map, keep the good work flowing through the community. We need more masterpieces as you may have noticed yourself, since you are a reviewer also.
