I should warn you that is is quite a small mod, but I feel it packs an interesting punch.
Visuals
This small level really looks the part, the lighting is great too, especially the spots above the weapons.
Gameplay
Just a simple “turn the corner and kill an enemy”. There’s little exploration and very little vertical movement involved.
Layout and Design
It’s too small to get to excited over the layout but the overal design is very good. I would also like to mention the use of music and sound effects, that really made the mod feel perfect for the setting.
Hall Of Fame Justification
Although some players may not enjoy this mod I felt that it was intersting enough to ensure that it got wider exposure.
Summary
Not the longest mod you will play, especially since the longest mod ever made (Strider Mountain) is due out today but this mini-mod is all about quality.
Short and sweet.

Well, it’s a map.
I found myself looking forward to the ep1 releases that you said were going to get posted when you got back from holidays.

I don’t remember saying anything about ep1 releases. I am so unorganized!

Very nice map. It really feels like quake. I’d like to see longer version of it with a nice little story.

I enjoyed this one; it took me back to my Quake playing days.
I would not have thought that a Quake/HL mix would have worked, but this did. Someone should expand the idea; maybe the author can give us more, with a story line and more ambitious sets.

In case anyone has Won, since this mod was only tested on steam, it still works on Won.

I played it via Won,

WOW, great old school mod, wish it was not so short.
No need to play it via steam as it wasnt in earlier days.

Any one experience a bit of nostalgia while playing this? I sure did. My favorite game of all time, set in the world of my other favorite game of all time. Short and sweet, definitely worth playing.

Nice map – brings me back to the old days of Quake and Duke Nukem 3D when they were mainstream.

I review this one at my blog and found it so fresh to give a so good touch and feeling of quake1 really worth even if it’s sadly too short

Very unique and fun! Nothing frustrating. I hope the author makes a second level for this.
