REVIEW:
Gameplay: 9/10
The gameplay with this map, was extremely smooth. I absolutely loved how all of the puzzles would work smooth, as well as your excellent redstone work. The redstone work is the highlight on this map, and you did extremely good. after i did my first puzzle, i couldn't believe that the door over it was marked with green wool. That the workings of the map where great.
Unique Properties: 8/10
Now, if you had to ask me where the map was weakest, i would say here. The map just feels vanilla, but in a good way. I'm not gonna say that you made a bad choice of theme, I'm just gonna say that having a theme in general would give this map a ton of potential. On the bright side, this map has some neat ways of using redstone to make you think. Difficulty: 10/10
Now i'm not gonna lie. There was a puzzle, on this map, where i had to look at a walkthrough to figure it out. This map is amazingly difficult, and it really requires hard thinking as well as trial and error. The map's difficulty adds the all over flavor to the entire experience. Even though you didn't use a difficulty curve, the difficulty stays pretty steadily, and it makes for a great map.
Flawlessness: 9.5/10
For the most part, the map was rock solid. I could barely find ANY flaws with this map. It was virtually impossible to exploit, and it was nice knowing that. The only few flaws i did run in to, was the music block test, where you couldn't go back and look at the wall after going to the buttons, kinda like the test with the blue buttons where you could pop in and out. Otehr then that, rock solid. Smoothness: 10/10
The map's transitions where wonderful. Allways ending up back to the start was rewarding, and being on new paths after each test was pretty rewarding. The slow and steady theme of getting all 6 tests done was great, sittin in the main hub looking at your green wool blocks (and maybe that nether block one. ehhhh....) It was perfect. Design: 9/10
Other then a few points where i would be stuck, the map design was wonderful. Your redstone work with this map was the icing on the cake. The map's theme was very simple, and the tests where allways different and it really felt like a trial.
This map had me frustrated to no end. The tests where difficult and sometimes confusing, and it was really hard. THATS what i like in a puzzle map! Puzzle maps are made to force you to think in order to move on. This map had me playing for hours, and it was worth it getting a roller coaster ride around it at the end. Great work.

REVIEW:
Gameplay: 7/10 The gameplay, for the most part at least, was alright and smooth. Navigating the mansion and outer area never seemed like a hassle (bad kind of hassle), but what i have to point out, is just how simple the map was. I would consider the gameplay for this map, at the very least, standard. I couldn't feel anything special with this one.
Unique Properties: 8.5/10
The unique Part of this map, is actually the design! This is a type of map you rarely see in minecraft maps! The entire experience is all centered around a single mansion, and it really feels epic exploring it and the outside parts of it! Now i feel that this could have been done alot better then it had been done, but for the most part you did an ok job. Very original idea, and has alot of potential, but it still needs some work.
Difficulty: 6.5/10
Now I'm gonna be honest here. The map wasn't that difficult. Sure the puzzles required some good thinking, and i'll give you that, but after the main puzzles (chapter 1-3) the rest of the map felt like a cake walk. I really didn't like how much guidance the signs would give the player. It turned a good puzzle into something really easy to do. Sure, it's important to give hints and help, but you don't have the balance between hints and a walkthrough.
Flawlessness: 8/10
The main flaws of this map lie in the design, and the difficulty. As stated above, the map was way to easy. Now I'm gonna admit, that the map did feel solid. It didn't feel rushed at all. Exploiting wasn't too hard, though. there are a few parts in the map where you could end up cheating. Other then that, it was really solid.
The Story: 6/10
The story is one of the other weak parts of this map. For one, after the first 3 chapters the story didn't seem to make much sense anymore. Now i know it's trying to take on a goofy approach, but to be honest it doesn't really achieve that. the story should really get some renovating, but of course, i find it at least standard quality. It's just not as great as it could have been.
Smoothness: 9/10 The Map was way more smooth then i expected. I absolutely loved how everything revolved around the mansion. It always seemed to tell you that you haven't explored every aspect of it yet, even though the player thinks they have seen the top and bottom. Great work.
Design: 8/10
Design of this map was great. Everything was set up nicely and the way you revolved everything around the mansion was a great taste. I need to add, however, that it seemed really... sloppy sometimes. The mansion doesn't really stay very consistent, and it looks like it's not finished being built. Other than that, i say, great work.
The map wasn't half bad. It has it's up in the thought, but it feels like it didn't live up to the idea it was made for. The map is a good map, but it's not great. It's not really memorable compared to other maps of it's type. It feels like it could use more, but it's not to far from being there. Great work, but it could use some work.
Map Name: Sky Conqueror Map Creator(s): ocomobock Map Forum Link:http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/588917-surv-sky-conqueror/ Map Genre: Survival Do you want a written review?: Yes Does the map require texture packs or mods?: No Additional Notes: This map might seem like one of those boring sky island maps, and if you think it's gonna be one of those maps, that's fine. This was made before Skyblock though, and I think it has an interesting concept to it. Try to think of this map as a map that was created before the time when everyone was posting Sky island maps. I wasn't trying to copy anything.
Anyways, I've said enough. I just don't wanna get a bad review for having a sky map. If this is going to take too long for you to review, you can just fly around and look at it instead.
