It was your first day at work in the test chamber at Black Mesa Research Facility. But that day turned out to be the day it all went wrong. The test laser was running on too high power, and that resulted in that the whole thing exploded. You got thrown into another dimention. The first thing you saw was a bunch of security guards and Scientists from BM, the next thing, a bunch of horrible monsters. You and all the other BM employees got captured and thrown into a cell. Until that lucky day when they forgot to lock the door.... - By Martin Schultz

A fun "shoot anything that moves" style mappack that takes place in a castle. The mapping is good, pretty nice for the release date, the environment hides some secret areas with goodies to if you know where to look. The new textures are also fitting though a bit on the cartoony side. Like I said previously, you don't do anything other than blowing aliens to bits while also pulling levers that opens doors with even more levers to pull behind them. You'll either blast through it under 15 minutes having fun gunning down monsters or you'll get bored doing the same thing over and over again, there is no middle ground. Still, the playtime is short enough (it has four maps in total) to give this mappack a try. Personally, I enjoyed it quite a bit.

This was pretty cool, and can be challenging.
the textures were great to look like a dark castle/dungeon with a nice dark atmosphere it has a decent length too

While on the short side and somewhat unbalanced, with odd enemy placement and monotonous button pushing to advance into the next area, TEW has a nice setting which isn't used nearly enough in shooters and has some decent amount of detail and texture work.

Not Martin Schultz's best work, but it was a nice try, and above all, it was something I somewhat enjoyed :)

It has pretty standard gameplay, its not really hard and throws only aliens at us. It tries to mix it up some unique qualities. Like textures that are reminiscent of a castle and a torture dungeon with cells. But unfortunately we barely get to see the outside apart from 2 areas without any good views... a castle would be larger and have more windows! and the texture (although new) gets repetitive quickly.
Its of a decent length of about 20 mins. I can't say whether or not I recommend it.
