I played this map because it's the oldest one in the archive with rating above 4.0. I think it's a worthy holder of that record. Of course it's small and crude by the standards of today's astonishing maps, but it's clean, coherent, competent, and fun to explore. It's probably the earliest map I know of that has that sense of revisiting previously visited areas as a natural part of the progression. Really nice work, and well worth playing.

This is a really fun old-school map. A couple of Matt Sefton's other maps are more polished, but this may be his most entertaining. Definitely recommended.

I played the map with the Scourge of Armagon track as recommended in the readme file, and the map sure did have a certain SOA feel to it.

It sure is a solid map with no glaring flaws. One of the secrets was a bit too obscure to my liking, but that's pretty much it.

But having written all that the map just didn't quite reel me in. I just wasn't feeling it that much for some reason, so right now I feel like rating it 4/5.

Liked it. Old-fashioned, not surprisingly, but well designed.

Well designed old school quake map from 1997 that is well designed and fun to play through. This is probably the level designer's best level he has released thus far going going in chronological order of his quake mapping releases. I would highly recommend playing this map with SOA's soundtrack as the level fits with the theme of quake's first expansion pack. Overall, I would give this map a four out of five rating and would highly recommend playing through this map.

In retrospect, I maybe over-rated this because it's so old. It's still good, but these days it looks more like a three-star map than four. Still, I won't change my initial rating: it's not the map's fault that things have got bigger and better in the last eight years. This is still good and solid and fun.
