The Pagan Temple

The Pagan Temple is a Single Player and Multiplayer level. As this was the first level made by Mike Melzer, it was not made to be fancy, but did feature a balance between architecture and gameplay.

In Deathmatch, it is intended for 5 players or less. There are no differences between the Single Player and Deathmatch versions of this map. This level includes a large number of areas to hide in.

There was an update made to this level a day later, September 2, 1996. Changes include an overall increase in the lighting, removing a large number of shadows from the level. The Ring of Shadows was also slightly moved, previously it was located inside the alcove underneath the temple stairs.

Retrace your steps to the previous platform, then continue forward to the balcony before turning left. Proceed forward onto a third platform to collect the 25 Health.
