Set in grassy ruins this level marks the author's first serious attempt at generating good game play, and he has been pretty successful. Custom textures give the map a fresh look. Connectivity is strong. The item placement strikes a reasonably good balance, although the +50 health ball is probably too strong for its proximity to the PG and the Red Armour. The arena is mostly set with right angles.
One nitpick is the fern limb that goes through a +25 health ball. With extra vertical development in the future and more experience with item placement Chaos will do spectacular things.
Worthy of some hard drive space.

Second Opinion
Great game play, excellent sounds and excellent texturing. Zeitgeist is a SMALL, FAST map that will have you pounding your keyboard if you ever get behind. Great connectivity and the inclusion of 1 MH, 1 YA and 1 RA in close proximity means you have at least a reasonable chance of surviving your subsequent spawns. Good item balance, although the Rail Gun is probably not needed, and the platform on the bottom level for the should have held the MH (IMHO). The Weapon placement shaders are great. Bot played ok except for the elevator.
Grab it now.
