Looks promising

I always did enjoy this on TFC, although preferred the original conc version. Perhaps a gauss gun could have been used instead of ladders? :)

I'll try it out tonight.

Preferred the original

Just played it. Wasn't much new as I've already done both TFC versions, but as in TFC I still prefer the conc jump upwards - would have liked to seen the original version converted with perhaps a gauss gun used to go upwards instead.

4 stars from me.

forgot to mention, the ladders are also a give away for when you have to go upwards.

Question

Got a problem, what should I do with the files?

I created folders with Sven co op and so on But the files are neither shown to me anywhere, nor can I start something Maybe you're still here after 10 years, and you can tell me how to do that.

Short Review

True to the film but as frustrating to play as you'd think.

Just like the movie you need to go from cube to cube and there is no indication of which rooms are lethal and which are not, or any way to find out besides trial and error.

With every room being identical and their colors repeating a lot, trying to memorize which path was safe so far was not possible. The only indications were the blood decals left from our deaths which would get deleted after a while so they didn't work in the long run (same with Sprays as they are also decals).

As brutal as it is, it's fun for 20-30 minutes maybe, but it overstays its welcome by being a lot longer, to the point where we decided to just noclip our way out which was surprisingly still confusing, as again all the rooms looked the same.

Would I recommend this? Well, if you're looking to kill 20 minutes with friends, yeah it can be fun, but any longer than that and you're better off playing something else.
