Take a section of a canyon complete with a river at the bottom that is dotted with small islands. Add some nicely drawn ruins. Then add bunch of ledges to hop around on, along with jump pads everywhere along the sides of the canyon wall, and you have the basic concept for this map. Alas, this structure is also what makes up a box map. While being very pretty to look at it is still a box map.
Game play is almost completely vertical, and the map is a campers dream. All weapons are here, including a BFG located high on the canyons for you enhanced camping pleasure. Powerups and items are scattered haphazardly about the map with no rhyme or reason.
Game flow is jerky and framey with HOM effects along the canyon rim. Bot play is poor with the bots preferring to stay in the river at the bottom of the canyon.
The map is pretty to look at, but lacks any form of game play. Best to leave this box map alone.
