Review by Kim Robinson on 31st July 2007

A fun, reasonably fast-paced level with not an awful lot on show - although the gameplay is smooth and for that reason alone it's worth the five to ten minutes it'll take you to complete it. Oversizing of Duke's surrounds is a little bit of an issue but on the whole it's a well-thought out map, your goal is to make your way to an escape helicopter, guarded by a miniboss. Not too hard and you'll have plenty of ammo left over, but it's fun while it lasts.

                           levels as well.  I hope this classic will never die.  
 
Description         : One of the Northwest's most severe Winter storms is
                            made worse by an infestation of foul aliens.  The dark
                            night is only lit by the crash of lightning and the hope
                            that once again Duke will prevail.
