Review by Kim Robinson on 2nd August 2007
Provide Relief is fun, nicely long-winded level involving Moscow, paranormal phenomenon and a decidedly alien presence rising up from underground. The level comes with a few new arts, sound effects and background music which adds volumes to the experience. Level design is on the whole very good, the map takes place over a large area which is made accessible by a subway - however if you don't know where you're going (or travel a long way only to find you're missing a key-card), this can become a bit tedious. Puzzles are well-thought out and a little confusing at times, but still add to the level. Play it now, or check out the level's review over at MSDN.

Description : During the last time very strange things are
happening in the Russian capital Moscow. The Metro
is closed while people are evacuating from city.
The reason is deep down, underground. The Metro is
full of unknown objects and creatures that capture
people and perhaps even kill them. Moreover
paranormal phenomenon are detected by station Mir
in space over Russia. The scientists suppose aliens
invasion. Nobody knows how to fight against them.
The army is unable to prevent the spreading of the
alien forces out of the underground into the streets.
The Russian government is preparing to eliminate the
danger by exploding all underground communications
of Moscow. As a result the whole city might be
destroyed in a moment. The last hope is Duke Nukem.
Your primary target is to sweep out all the enemies and
destroy their commander in the crushed UFO.
So kick them off and welcome to Russia!
