I am really surprised Crash liked this so much. I suppose most releases from 1996 can be forgiven for being a little ugly (the sloping walkway in particular features some very suspect brushwork), but here the author also saw fit to use ogres as the only monster. Along with the very limited selection of textures, this was perhaps meant to be minimalist. Sadly it just makes for a really boring map.
Very ugly and bland map visually. The gameplay is very confusing due to all the random doors opening up without telling you. All eighteen enemies are ogres. Not worth playing at all. 1/5
The Climb on The Quake Grave
The Climb feels like there just wasn't a whole lot of effort put forth. All of the enemies are ogres, weird choices for quad and ring of shadows placement (end of level?), doors are seemingly random with how the open and where ogres are cming from next, little on the boring boxy side of things...I think it's unfortunate that Glenn ended on this note because his first few maps were really showing him making progress with his skills. His last 2 maps, Titerope and then The Climb kind of feel like a step backwards.
It's not awful but I don't think this one is a good one to check out.
I would call this map entirely awful if the enemies weren't ogres, and were instead something annoying like fiends or vores. As it is, it is kind of fun to fight your way through, even if it is butt-ugly and confusing at times.
