The earth still rests in peace, no one would dare to interrupt the allday-business of the human race and imagine the intruding of an alien force on earth…Although you have a dangerous job as a member of a special unit, trained to handle inconveniences in the international research and science competition, your day starts quite normal.

Poll Question 237 – How important is it to you to finish a game or mod?

Assassin Mark 2for Half-Life
Author’s Note:“Mark 2 is a vague sequel to my Quake map Assassin, in that you play an assassin in both. In this one you’re off to kill several scientists (as everyone likes slapping scientists round the head with a crowbar). This level features an awful lot of puzzles, and it taught me that people either love or hate puzzles. Nobody thinks they’re just ok.”
