What makes this map work is the bot action. They ride the lifts right beside you, and guard their goal with fervor. A corner or two of the playing flield yields a secret passageway that leads you close to your goal. Watch out for the ghostly spirit roaming the secret passage; it’s safe to pass when the spirit sinks into sand to access a waiting coffin. Although simplistic, the visuals are tolerable, but some additions would spice things up a bit. Clearly, the gameplay, due in part to the good bots and the item placement, is the predominate feature of the map. I used the bot map count, which is about 4 or 5 on a side. |

| Adrenaline 01-07-2003 09:24 PM MST | Rating: 9 | | The bots perform very well.
| Gib_Mongrel 01-10-2003 06:37 PM MST | | There is another secret entrance to each base, go to the top of each pyramid and a trap door opens in back. Sorry you didn't find it, thought the double damage would lure you up there. I know u guys have massive amounts of maps to review and can't totally get into each one, but I do appreciate the review :). I'll try for more eye candy in my next one ;]
| Fine Trader 01-20-2003 06:06 PM MST | Rating: 7 | | I thought the map was great, however I never encounted the so called ghost. The secret trapdoor is a great addition to the map despite the fact that it was there all along.
I would like to see more eye candy around the place where the ball starts off. Perhaps a river, trees, etc with different paths going accross to the ball.

| SymphonicTank 08-07-2003 01:23 AM MDT | Rating: 7 | | This map deserves a 7 just based on the ingenious layout and the fun of playing it.
True, it could be decorated up a bit more on the upper level, or at least maybe an attempt to use some of the space up there a bit better, but this has to be one of the best strategic playing BR maps out there. Frame rates are stable and fantastic, even on lower-end machines.
