[2020-12-30] Version 2.04:

New features:
  • New FFA Mini-game: Dwarf War
Overall improvements:
  • Changed "Long game" to 15 rounds (from 14)

New features:

  • New FFA mini-game: Ghost Huning
  • Removed the duel Russian roulette :(
  • Replaces the Russian roulette duel with a new duel mini-game: Mage Battle :)
  • Russian Roulette is no longer a duel mini-game. Instead it's a mini-game for up to 24 players! :D

Overall improvements:
  • Added the Locust ability to the units standing in the area where you pick a mini-game to make it easier to pick a game.
  • The game will select the Betting unit (the Gold Coin) for you once it time to bet, some in-game texts where changed to make it a little bit clearer on how you are supposed to bet.
Bug fixes:
  • Fixed the major bug that could occur in Deal or No Deal where the game would not start the next round once all boxes was opened.
  • Fixed a minor bug that allowed a random FFA-game to start instead of a random duel if the picking player didn't make his choice within 20 seconds.
  • Fixed a minor bug that could cause a game to be marked as "played" even if the game mode "Unique" was turned off
Changes to mini-games:
  • Random Arena: There is now a 5% chance that you will gain 2 units instead of 1
  • Orc Labyrinth: The ghost you receive when you die can now fly, allowing you to see over walls, please don't spoil the location of the Orcs to the other players ;)

The map is extremely fun an enganging, minigames are good, it's a good laugh and has a nice balance between luck and skill. Just nerf horse racing man, you never know what racer will actually win or even has a higher chance... Set to APPROVED...

Great job with the map, had a lot of fun playing. 10 minigames is a little small number, you should add more and maybe add a mode where all minigames are played including gamble game and duels.

Also in the minigame with keys, there are only 3 winning keys, that's quite small when you play with 24 players.

Woah this is such great news. I love the original! I hope you add more Mini-Games. I will review it when I play it!

Looking forward to your thoughts!

Thanks for your kind words. More mini-games will be added in the future and a mode to play more than 10 mini-games!

In the key mini-game, there spawns 107 keys, 15 of them gives the player points (14% of all keys). The number of player don't change these values. However if a player find the Item that spawns another 50 Items, there may spawn more keys that gives you points.

Do you have a replay of you playing with 24 players? I have not taken the time to gather that many players yet and it would be nice to study a round with 24 players!

With best regards

Hey, I really like your new map!
I especially love the Deal or No Deal mini-game. You also cut out a lot of the boring mini-games from the original.

Unfortunately the game bugged in the Deal or No Deal game. I attached a replay. It bugged once everyone tapped out in deal or no deal.

Oh, thats how it is :D There were many players left, so I assumed they didn't find anything, but maybe they just didn't instantly disapear after taking a winning key, so that they can earn more points.

Version 2.01 is out, nothing big but I fixed the Major bug in "Deal or no Deal".

See the full changelog in the description!

You need more sound effects on the price is right imo, great map though.
Thank you for playing my map (also, very cool nickname!) :) Can you clarify what you mean with the sound effects?^^

Always check/recheck the Map Submission Rules! (Map Submission Rules)

These will help make a better description:


Screenshots could attract more players to download your work. Make the best of them.

A credits list is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated.

A changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.

Games are more fun when you have feedback. I think if you have more of the things happening in that game play sound effects it would feel more exciting, rather than kind of boring as it opens chests early on. Like in the original lucker as each circle is chosen in the first game it plays sounds for them, feedback for fails and chain heal for wins I think. It helps make the game engaging despite little actual participation. Also thanks, I'm just lucky no one else had taken this name yet.

Thanks for the review and the approval :) about the Horse race; I have the feeling that new players get stomped by that mini-game, but when you know how the mechanics works, you actually have a good shot at winning 2 of the 4 races almost every game. It's on my to-do list to simplify that mini-game a little.

I see what you mean now, i'll definitely consider adding an audience-sound for that mini-game. So when a big number box is opened the audience gasps and cheers when a player makes a good deal ect.

Please backport this map to v1.26.0.6401 , it's the last good and bug-free version of the classic era. Reforged sucks :(
We've been playing the classic 1.3c version for over 10 years now and I was AMAZED to find this and that you have updated this map after all this time. Nevertheless nothing can convince my friends or myself to move to the heap of crap what is Reforged.

Compiling this map in the 1.26 editor will make it work for everyone, classic and Reforged, right?

The map has 24 player slots so requires at least patch 1.29 to play.

You don't have to play it on reforged you can download some newer patch prereforged and play on that like 1.30.
This map is for 24 players which the 1.26 version does not support, so it's impossible to be even converted to that.

Also I don't see why not play on reforged it has the biggest community and bugs are not that much of an issue anymore. I dont like this separation of communities.

AFAIK they introduced a lot of new bugs when the new team took over and started modifying the old code starting from patch 1.27. Some of the bugs have since been fixed in Reforged (while introducing new bugs) but the interim patches (1.27a - 1.31.1) are less stable overall than the final classic 1.26a patch made by the old WC3 team. Thanks Drake53 for the link to the map adapter, but it seems that we'll be playing 1.3c then.
