Mansion Murderer 0.38 Beta is an interesting "tag" styled map. Basically there is a killer and humans in a locked up mansion. The goal of the humans is to find a key hidden somewhere and escape, and the killers goal is to kill all the humans. The killer can disguise himself as one of the humans. The mansions itself throws some NPC-s at the humans to deal with.
The idea of the map may not seem to original, however the author manged to make it that way. It was really something refreshing.
The terrain was decent, average. The atmosphere created was great, however it was to repetive and that did become boring. A second floor, perhaps a basement should be added. That would bring the game on an entire new factor. And is the fog really necessary? I mean the dungeon red one, I think it looks a bit odd.
The Object Editor work should have been better. A lot of missing, I mean really a lot of missing or no hotkeys. The entire chat system hotkeys didn't work at all. Better descriptions of items perhaps and coloured names could be used.
What I also didn't like is a thing that could be improved perhaps. When someone says something, the text stays at the place he said it, it doesn't follow the one who said it. I don't know can you make this MUI, you should try atleast.
It was fun playing it I must add. It was a bit thrilling and interesting, running around, bumping on the zombies and the killer then running from them.
The packaging of the map is good, used everything properly with the addition of images.
I must say a good map, however it missed that something special that could make it great. If you expect me to say what it is, I really can't. I can just say you should vary the terrain more and fix the hotkeys. We shall see how this will develop.
Approved with a 3/5 (Useful) rating.
