Review by Kim Robinson on 12th August 2007
Another high quality release from Pinxten, The Railway Station is a short to medium sized level centered around none other than a railway station - and of course it's populated by alien scum. Gameplay is pretty good, the level flows smoothly enough and there's less focus on puzzles than on blowing up your foes (though sometimes this is combined). Design is well thought-out, apparently inspired by real-life train stations but you can see Halflife-esque bits as well. Take a looksie.

Title : The Railway Station

Description : Alien-attack blah blah... just kick ass
in this railwaystation. Losely based on
Rotterdam Central Station and Amsterdam
Central Station (both in the Netherlands).
A negative point about my previous maps was
that they were all quite 'dead' or 'passive'
because of the lack of gore, blood,
explosions and special effects. I've done
something about that now! Everything must
blow!!
Additional Credit to : 3D Realms for making this kick-ass game.
And to you of course, for wasting time
playing my maps
