This map is nice looking, and plays pretty well. Its unique theme lends itself to some unusual, but nice looking interiors. How many maps put each team's base in a bar?
The bases are connected by a small wall-like structure that provides both passage and sniper posts. They are both symmetric, and provide some pretty instense close-quarters and medium range combat, making a Flak Cannon and Rocket Launcher necessary to be an effective flag thief.
The bots seemed to know their way around the map pretty well, and were able to capture the flag. Their strong suit is defending, and they do so with vigor.
The flow isn't really the best I've seen in a CTF map, and neither are the graphics, though they convey the tropical Cuban theme pretty well. I guess the worst part of this map is its music, a repetitive guitar mix that made me reach for my music changer after five minutes.
Overall, this map plays well. Download if you think Gameplay Is Everything(TM), or if you'd just like to fight in a Cuban dive. You won't be disappointed.

Not my favorite Ulukai map, but it's still a dam good map. Essential download, as is CTF-Denovo.

Very fun map. Not surprisingly from Ulukai, construction is nice, tidy and good-looking. New music is good, suits! Not the most complicated layout but I can tell ya I've played this one a few times!

It's groovy. And not because of the music.

The music was my biggest dilema. During testing, it drove me to claw at the wallpaper after several hours of prolonged exposure.

Doesn't seem to be a whole lot to this map. Bases are too open, you can be grabbing the flag, and get killed by someone the other side of the base.

Good map. Finally a map with a fresh theme, nice texture set.
No complaints about bots, they work fine. Although I get the feeling they don't always take the fastest way in-out the base.
Defending the flag is rather easy though. I mean, human vs. bot.
This map comes with an excellent, fitting track.
Well worth the download.

Another complex CTF layout from this mapper. Interesting theme. Good botplay, as usual....

Ulukai is Ulukai. What can I say? Great map. I found it little later, almost three and a half years after the release but still it’s better to find it late than never. Those screenshots are kinda misleading. The map is greater than it looks on them. It has somewhat cheerful theme, and more importantly the music isn’t annoying at all. The gameplay is fun, the layout is great and provides lot of places to ambush the enemy.
