This map takes over an hour to beat, more if you can't find the items you need to win, in reality the time it takes you depends on how easily you can fight your way through the rooms. It has you going through this huge castle in a massive mountain valley. You will go through hard combat (depending on how good you are at fighting) with limited supplies. It is a really good idea to explore and look around the rooms, you might find something to help you on your way.
The story and instructions are in the notes file that is in the download, the story being told as you read the notes when told by signs, the story isn't very highly explained in this first part, and is somewhat up to the user figuring it out by what the notes hint about things.
Future plans:
-Fix any bugs any of you might tell me about.
-Fix beds not working without peaceful on.
-MAKE THAT FREAKING TRAILER I KEEP FORGETTING ABOUT!
-Make sure it works on SMP. (Kinda does, but needs testing)
-Maybe make notes that are better for SMP.
-Part 2 and 3 to the story.
Things fixed in 1.1:
-Now if you don't spawn in a bed you should spawn at a place you can get back into.
-Added to the notes that you can turn on peaceful to use beds.
-Added more houses to end.
-Made unfair tower easier.
-Fixed a few holes and things that were messed up.
-One or two other fixes.

Overall I would rate this 10/10 for it's wonder.
Did not regret playing this one.
