Review by Kim Robinson on 17th September 2007
A more linear version of Taamalus (by the same author), redesigned to be more difficult. Gameplay suffers a little because of this but it's still a top-notch play - although at first glance it seems not to differ from its predecessor. Design is pretty good, fun factor is alright - take a look if you haven't seen Taamalus yet.

*Important Information*
Installation : If you got Duke version 1.5 - do nothing, and just load the
map! The attached game.con has two minor effects added. The map will play without it
in 1.5. (You are a pistol short in the beginning, so run a little!) If you want to
get the effects and got 1.3 simply back up your current game.con and install the
attached one in your Duke directory.
Important Notes : This is the linear version of Taamalus; in other words it's
redesigned to play at difficult level 4 (Damn I'm Good).
Some secrets contain important stuff like the devestator. Keys are also hard to find.
If you are not into finding secrets, I isued a spoiler text file for secrets.
