Review by Kim Robinson on 3rd August 2007
A pretty nice level with good, quality design, reasonable gameplay and more attention to detail than you could poke a comfortably long stick at. Despite this though the level lacks ambience or any real, 'adrenaline-pumping' moments - the whole thing is rather pedestrian and although it looks good it's on the whole a bit boring to play. The level progresses nicely however and there's a storyline, as well as a few viewscreens about to explain your predicament. Give it a go regardless, I mightn't know what I'm talking about. Note: JonoF's port doesn't sit well with the new CON file, but the map is just as playable without it.

This time, Mother Earth is out to get him ! After having saved the earth numerous times, Duke is treated to an all-expenses paid vacation by the EDF. EDF, known to cut corners, sent Duke to the most exotic and fun-filled place 125$ can buy. "Dusty Creek Hotel", Arizona. What Duke nor EDF knows is that the hotel is situated on top of a dorment volcano. Until now. After just 2 days in "paradise", Duke is suddenly tossed out of bed. Looks like the volcano just woke up... Your mission : Get the hell out of the hotel before it collapses !
