This map is another very nice Chico style map. When your looking for a map with excelent visuals just grab one of El Chico Verde's maps. This one meets the chico standard of being a great map.
The flow of this map is nice but could have been better in places. there is a long hall way with the shield belt and a trap which makes getting the belt very risky and adds to the fun of the map. More ways to get from place to place would have really helped out and made the maps gameplay more enjoyable.
The entire map has a very 'dark' feel to it. The map does stay well lit through out and you can see well enough to fight everywhere in the map. The lighting also contrasts very well, going from hot to cold which gives it a nice feel.
Visuals are one of Chico's stronger sides in mapping. There is a lot of detail and it also stays in a safe poly range. There are places in the map where I feel like I've been there before like i mentioned in the suntzu review.
Textures were used nicely. They are mostly old textures but they have a somewhat new look (richrig is old now :P). There are a few places where I think a better texture could have been used but those where in some hard to texture places.
Sound was used well. there's buzzing, fshhing, and other various sounds, all where they fit in. He really made the whole envirornment fit in together nicely.
Concluding suggestion: Download this map! |

| Twrecks | Rating: 8 | | Alittle small for my tastes, prolly a good 1on1 map. Biggest complaint would be the uberlong corridor for the ShieldBelt and funky marker cones. Item placement could use work but like most of the Green Dude's maps the visuals are outstanding. Nice Map!

| FranÃois | Rating: 10 | | I'm the Chico FAN GREAT JOB
| The Mule | Rating: 8 | | Love the architecture, it is very brilliant. But I have a suggestion: LIGHTS!!! Almost every map is REALLY dark and I'm getting sick of it! Architecture is no good if you can't see it!
| skankey | Rating: 8 | | Wow, some incredible lighting, too dark for MP, but still, very impressive. Architecture was great in some spots and so/so in other. Didn't have a lot of fun playing, but oh well.
| DisturbedCreation | Rating: 8.5 | | Great map!
| the_tub | Rating: 8 | | Loved the architecture, but what do you expect from chico? the gameplay wasnt bad but i thought that tunnel was too long.

| Mxtrmntr 12-16-2002 12:38 PM MST | Rating: 8 | | very nice map. of course, one might call it "another richrig factory", but this map actually has a soul, it benefits a lot from its graphics and sound :)
