Hey everyone! First thing’s first – yes, we did skip last week’s MotW. There were only two maps released, and only one of them was any good (made by SockPuppet, who’s already been awarded MotW several times)! I write these during my spare time, and it just didn’t seem worth it to write out something just for that. I hope you understand. Of course, if you’d rather we not skip future MotWs whenever possible, yell at us in the comments and we’ll look into it! Anyway, without further ado… This week’s Map of the Week is “A Theatre’s Props” by SockPuppet! Yeah, he won it anyway, who saw that coming?
This map deviates from the usual formula – for one, it’s not a standard “kill the undead inhabiting a building” design that’s so familiar at this point, but rather is more of a puzzle (you still kill undead though, otherwise it wouldn’t be a DEADBOLT level). Puppet uses all of his editor tricks and knowledge to make some rather creative puzzles, with elements such as invisible floating mines and an enemy that has to be shot from a specific spot to survive.

I found the stages to have a unique look that, while nothing particularly beautiful, caught my eye and remained memorable. As always, there are secrets hidden at the boundaries of the map. I wonder where they’ll lead… Oh, and I would really advise you to watch your step.
Overall, a short but unique puzzle level that’ll definitely take some time to solve. That’s where the fun is, of course. Play it now!
