Pros: It's small, downloads rapidly and is ThiefLoader-compatible. Uninstalls easily, too.

Cons: Many crash bugs; misaligned textures; too great a reliance on THIEF GOLD-native textures and animation scripts; Mapmaking 101-level architecture; pointless plot; featureless boxy rooms; some incompatible texture juxtapositions, giving the locale even more of a random, thrown-together feel; amateurish enemy placement (except perhaps for the spider on top of the high shelves).

Bottom line: The type of first effort young mapmaking neophytes create, 99% of whom stash it away on a diskette somewhere rather than releasing it to the sort of knowledgeable, sophisticated public who plays superior games like THIEF and SYSTEM SHOCK.

Comments by Andrew Dagilis:
•  Pros: Solidly well thought-out interiors and exteriors, custom textures and sounds, no contrived "gotcha!" traps.
•  Cons: Some technical/programming slip-ups, some featureless rooms (admittedly, in buildings you don't have to visit), random stitched-together plotline with several slapped-on, unmotivated objectives.
•  Bottom Line: The designer obviously took great pains in creating his Austro-Swisslike town and all aspects thereof. Sadly, his architectural achievement is undermined by slipshod plotting and merely average scripting. Such a well designed setting deserves plot underpinnings of equal quality; unfortunately, the plotting feels a bit hodgepodgey, as if it's being made up as you go along.
