Includes modified CREATURE.TXT, which has been made functional for KeeperFX.

This was first on top of my list of unrated maps and I am curious if there will be some gems hidden amongst them. Well this wasnt one of them definitely. You will spend a lot of time and as you progress in maze, you will most likely be more and more frustrated. Atleast I was. Of course I discovered place where I had to go after looking basicly everywhere else so I wasted over 2 hour on this map (with frame skipping...). What the hell was author of map thinking? Almost all tiles are neutral so it takes so damn long to claim them by imps. So it is constantly going into possession to speed things up, dig some dirt or gold, being ambushed and most likely killed, drop creature to deal with enemies, then watch how imp slowly claim the tunnels. And repeat... You will find a lot of creatures in maze, but they have nothing to do so they just suck your gold reserves. Oh yes it is also so painfull to gather gold from places which are milion miles from your treasure room. Do you want to get rid of creatures to not suck your gold? Tough, as there is no portal so you have to let your Horned reaper to kill them (if you will be lucky to get him from Stela hero special) or slap them to death. I didnt want that tho as it was weird to get so many creatures when there wanst really anything challenging so I was expecting somethinh at the and. And it was good choice.

When you finaly make it to Reveal Map, there is some lore with messages. But I was already quite frustrated at that point so i didnt give a shit really. I just wanted it to end. Made it to Hero Heart and being destroyed by like 30 Horned Reapers at level 10. Ok..., Load save.... and then i was able to kill them as most of them bugged themselfs around Heart lol. I almost forgot, if you arent pissed off enough at that point in time, there is like 20 blocks with lightning traps killing your imps before you make it to heart. So funny....(not). Heart was destroyed and .... nothing, still didnt win. I was angry... message popped that some units are on their way.. I begged them come fast but had to frame skip, killed them and nothing... you have to also kill every single hero on map to win....

I almost forgot, maze is so massive that at some point I started to have some lags, maybe it was from frameskipping a lot, I was constantly getting voice messages that my creatures were fighting too. I didnt care honestly , didnt even look but didnt get any notification who was fighting, probably nobody... Also my imps started to have issues with doign stuff automaticly as they were too deep in maze.

If you want to keep your mental health undamaged, avoid this map.
