Map review of Escalator Up

    You truly can never say, when it comes to Robootto, what kind of nonsense you'll get up to in his maps.

    This map is an escalator that's… oddly made, but at the very least interesting to look at. There's no escalator down, so the player gets to ride up, open a door, and find that the map is ready to throw a curveball.

    See, the map gives you a shotgun at spawn. "Why would I need a shotgun," you may ask aloud to nobody in particular, "in a map that is simply an escalator?"

    Well, young reader, the answer is simple: the escalator leads to grave danger!

    And by grave danger, I mean a handful of fassassins!

    And by a handful of fassassins, I mean a handful of fassassins at the end of an extremely long elevator ride. An elevator in an escalator map. Madness.

    Pressing a button at the top does nothing because it seeks to send you to a map that does not exist.

    This map is a nothing. There's no reason to play it. That's it. That's my review.

Pros:

• It has an escalator.

Cons:

• Long elevator ride
• Surprise attack right after long elevator ride
• Gonna have to wait for the elevator to come down and get back on it because you weren't expecting an attack
