Overall rating:

Finally a map by Alando again, that has original gimmicks AND something like gameplay!
It's an egyptian themed map and has two areas; first you need to explore a giant outside area in the desert with archaeological pits (where you'll meat monsters instead of archaeologists of course), and then you enter a pyramid with narrow ways leading to some chambers).
Except for some new decoration, the rooms are rather simple. The climax of the map is a bit pointless. It's a giant hall where 300 of the 400 monsters are waiting for you. Run around them and watch them fight each other, until you can do the rest with some Shotgun shots.

There are a lot of new monsters, but you can find all of them in his other maps.
