The second release from sd2009, Muenchen is a small but interesting map. The setting is during the night with heavy fog engulfing the outdoor area of the map. The gameplay on this one is not easy, but also not hard. It's balanced, which is a good thing for the players. There are no secret areas sadly, but there are 2 treasure items (chalices), but those are impossible to miss since they are in the same room as the key needed to unlock a gate. The objective in this one is to steal some documents, and eliminate some Nazis.
The Nazis in this map actually speak German instead of English or Russian. I assume the voices used on the Nazis were recorded by sd2009 himself, which is a plus. This map also uses many custom textures. The level design is great, especially the mountains surrounding the map. There is a mistake though.
The player can easily see the edge of the map (near the barbed wire, beside the graveyard). I think sd2009 could have avoided this by making more mountains, or at least have the road curve around the corner, out of the player's sight.
Also, I am wondering why the graveyard was added. There are no secrets there, and no enemies to fight (not even zombies!). This makes me wonder if sd2009 was thinking about using the graveyard for a secret area, or have some zombies there waiting for the player to enter, but in the end he changed his mind.
The atmosphere is nice, and the player always has to be alert. I was able to complete this level without cheating, although I did die a few times because some enemy soldiers have sniper rifles, which do a lot of damage. Overall, I found the gameplay to be interesting as well as the map itself.
