The plans for the Death Star are being transported to the Emperor by means of Imperial Star Destroyer. Your job is to get onto the ship, steal the plans and get back to the Crow. |
It sounds simple enough. Just break into a Star Destroyer and steal
the Death Star plans. Piece of cake right?
Wrong. The level is pretty simple to figure out, and you shouldn't have any trouble with the troopers in here. But the Star Destroyer is nowhere in sight. I can hear what you're asking: "Did I hear that right? No Star Destroyer? But I played it and it was on a Star Destroyer. And the text file says..." Well the author seems to be under the same impression you are, that this level takes place on an Imperial Star Destroyer.
That aside, even if this level took place somewhere else it would still fail. The architecture is small and constricting. While that might make sense for a ship, Star Destroyers are built on a very grand scale and even if this ship was a submarine I'd still expect room enough to walk around all the time. The plot alone practically dooms this level to mediocrity, but the setup doesn't help. Enemies are confined in small rooms and you spend most of you time moving up and down elevators placed in the most obscure places. Basically you run a maze, and I'd expect any type of base or ship to be a bit more orderly. |
There is no doubt that the level is pretty much a failure. Had
the author tried a more interesting plot and combined it with some more
accurate and involved architecture it could have gone somewhere. But as it
is this level just tends to sit and flounder; it certainly isn't much fun.
