Review
Reviewer SmearedByAPiston Overall Score:  5/10 Date NC2 12-08-2000 Note: This is an old review, imported into our database. Lately, there haven't been many good DM maps for UT. DM-Apophis certainly breaks the startling trend of poor maps. This map is set in a temple environment. On many walls their are hyroglyphs and there are columns throughout the whole level to get that true temple feeling. In some rooms, however, the tan-brick texture gets quite boring and, while you are most likely to not notice, it can be a real eyesore. Also, one more squawk is that sometimes, in the one main room with the redeemer, the columns can actually hinder your movement so much that you can be capped rather easily. Now, let's get to the good stuff. The concept of this level isn't totally original. It's rare that you see a level that really gives you the feeling that you are fighting in a temple so well that it puts you there. The floorplan of this level is very good, with many corridors leading to the two main rooms. There is even a trap in the main room. In the screenshot, the hole that the shield belt is over is really a trap door. In another room, there are two switches. When someone gets the shield belt, hit one of the switches and BOOM!!!! Bed of nails for them. The only bitch I have is that the columns in the main room can mess you up, but it isn't that often - but it CAN be annoying. Lighting & sound is good, with no spots being really too dark to see. Also the ambient sound for the trap door is good. Botplay is solid. Really solid. They even use the switches for the trap! Good job, Nose of Night! This level MIGHT have some playability trouble... it is a little large. I can't tell because my system is pretty juiced up... it might crawl on a 233 but otherwise you shouldn't have much trouble. This level is totally awesome and should definitely be downloaded and put on some servers. Keep up the good work, Nose of Night. I can't wait to see your future work!

Akuma Rating: 3   Wasn't this map originally given a '9'? :P Luquado Rating: 4   Probably. Jez 01-23-2004 07:21 PM MST Rating: 5   Better than DM-Anubis, not as good as DM-1on1-Rajan.
