The escape — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Escape is a small 36 by 36 single-level map for one human player, set entirely on lava and rated Hard. The author's description frames it as a prisoner who has spent three thousand years locked in the farthest reaches of the underworld, guarded by seven archangels, and who now tries to break out as the old magic weakens. The lone player controls a randomly chosen hero, with no teams and no computer opponents. Victory requires defeating a specific monster, and the hero must not be lost. Wandering demons, Pit Fiends, Cerberus and a Crusader roam the map, while mines, two creature banks, seven monoliths and portals, and a set of named artifacts such as the Sword of Hellfire and Helm of Chaos are scattered across it.
