Review by Kim Robinson on 12th August 2007
This prequel to Red3 is a fast-paced romp through an alien-controlled town - you've got to wonder why the buggers can't just stay at home for a change. Gameplay is top-notch, puzzles can be a little difficult at times but are on the whole not much of an issue, there's a couple of neat effects but nothing overly spectacular - plus there's a nice story to go with it! Take a gander I say!

title: Red2 (much easier to give a level a name like this)
Filename: Red2.map
Author: Merlijn v. Oostrum
E-mail adress: g.vanoostrum[at]worldonline.nl
Author information: I'm dutch, 16 years old and still Duke-freak!
Release date: August 2001
Other levels: The long road (this is the sequel).
Future levels: This level will get another sequel (it should be
an episode one day). That map (red3) will be located
in a dark night. That's all I'm telling you now.
I'm also working on other shit. You'll see.
=====================================================================================
========================
Description : A level located in a little town in the deserts between
L.A and Las Vegas. Includes some locations in a mine and Town Hall.
Story: So there you stand in the tunnel. Before you can see a glimmer
of a town at the end of the tunnel. Behind you, the emergency door
is closed again. You think about what happened.Till now, the aliens
didn't showed much resistance, you think. Thats only good news,
becouse you'll have to get back to L.A as soon as possible...
Too bad for you it won't be that easy. You will discover that the
alien bastards have taken over the city and have locked all the
exits to stop you. You'll have to find a way to escape from this area
so you can continue your way to L.A... Before it's too late...
=====================================================================================

If you're reading this, it's on your hard-drive, smartass!
=====================================================================================
=======================
* Extra iformation *
-Once again, it's better for you to explore the entire area. I'll give
one tip: after you have find a shotgun in the beginning, go to the bar
first. You'll find some useful things there.
-I've worked much harder on this level then on the last one (the long road)
and I think the results are much better too.
I like to know what you think of it, so PLEASE send me a mail.
-You're free to distribute this level, as long as you let me know about
it. You are NOT allowed to use this level as a base for your own maps
or distribute it under your own name.
Be sportif, just build your levels from scratch
Just one more thing: this level is quite hard, becouse I wanted it to
be a challenge for the one who plays it. Newbies should play this on
"piece of cake", becouse it will be hard for them to survive "let's
rock"
