Ah, yes, a newbie-plus map. By this I mean that the author has surpassed newbie mode, but still needs to polish and focus his skills. The map is different; it’s innovative and shows a lot of imagination. However, the hodgepodge of ideas is analogous to pounding square pegs into round holes. Some stuff just ain’t fittin’ right.
For example, you have this castle-like theme going on, but you begin to run across quirky things that just don’t seem to fit the theme well. Linear pools of green slime seem odd and, perhaps, should have been replaced with lava pools. A gigantic sheet of glass, which allows one base to view the status of the flag in another base, seems a little strange when you consider the ‘olden-days’ theme. Other issues that ‘bugged’ me was that some items were out of scale (too large), lighting that came from nowhere (in some places), and an overabundance of items to pick up.
So, is the map a total loss? No, the gameplay is not too bad at all, and, although it seems as though I spent the first half of this review ‘bashing’ the map, it’s not so unappealing that one couldn’t have a good time playing it. If you like a challenging snipe, you’ll enjoy the difficulty of drawing a bead on the opponent from one of the high towers. If hide-n-seek is not your ‘thing’ and brute force is, you may appreciate the variety of open spaces and dodging places as you attempt to steal the flag. The bots seemed to work okay, and that’s always a plus if online gaming is not your thing. Check it out, if you like castle themes. |
