I got really confused on what items I needed to pick up, so I was just kinda wandering for a bit. The demons were easy enough to avoid. Just ran to the car and that was it. I also am not a huge fan of the pixelated games genre.

Over all. It was a good mod. Play it when you have a few minutes.

Very short map. Little rough around the edges, but over all an enjoyment to play.

My honest opinion about this is it's a good start. It's a solid start. I was really confused about a lot of stuff, but overall I think with some tweaking, this could be a really great mod

I wait about 2 minutes or so for the first cut scene to get done. After waiting forever I start in a room that appears to be fullbright. Not sure what I need to do as I spent 3 minutes trying to figure out how to open a locked door. I restarted and thought I messed something up. Nope. Same thing again. After looking at the vmf, it turns out there is a crowbar inside a physbox that after breaking it, opens the door. Oh and pressing +Use doesn't open it up. Not sure why I even bother playing moddb maps anymore.

I am a Ravenholm fanatic. I love Grigori as a character, and Ravenholm as a place. I have a few problems with this mod however. It starts me on hard if I am not mistaken. I didn't realize this and I was struggling to get past normal headcrabs. I expected a lot more traps, but I got next to none. I also expected to have way more health kits and ammo. I had to kick my way through a lot of it because of the fact that I realized ammo is very scarce. The atmosphere is incredible however. Love the idea and concepts. I tried to explore every area, but I got no reward. Only death because there was a random zombie waiting to one shot me. I was low on health for a majority of it.

It's a well balanced and fun mod to play. I updated the maps, so I had time to get to understand the mod. The maps I had to work with are clean and easy to understand. There is little dialog, but it despite that, it flows nicely along. It suddenly is cut short though at the end.

This, unlike what a lot of others are saying, is actually a very fun map. I did not rage or cry when I died. I have a very high tolerance for these kinds of maps. This was very fun and took me about 2 hours to complete. You have to use your brain for some of the puzzles, but everything can be completed without breaking a sweat.

The key notes I want to address to anyone wanting to play this map is this: Turrets, if you don't know... can be stood up and will continue to fire after being knocked down. I used this tactic after the combine room to eliminate most of the citizens. I did turn up the host_framerate to .5 to save time. The antlions are endless, so you can technically just hide in the vent and wait for them to kill off the combine.

This mod was a breath of fresh air from the typical maps I play.

I watched jolly loose his mind playing this and I wanted to see for myself. Jolly.... you have a peanut sized brain.
