Green Arrow -review

Another superb superhero-mod from the Team Raycast that is well known from such much as Operation Eisenfaust: Origins and Legacy, Batman: No mans land and Batman Vs. Bane...

In the Green Arrow you step into the boots of Oliver Queen to fight your way through 15+2 levels to hunt down Deathstroke and to stop his evil plans... As you are only equipped with your fists and your bow you need to use your wits to survive.

Aesthetics wise this mod is beautiful despite still using the original Wolf3D-palette for textures and sprites (some of the backgrounds however use more colors)... Each different environment is really detailed and the lightning effects really create intense atmosphere. Also in some levels there are special effects that will blow your mind, but not to spoil anything I let you to discover them yourself.

Overall the visuals in this mod were great, however considering how much detail was put to the animations I wish there would have been one for the guards to blowing up.

Music fits the levels well giving a boost to the atmosphere, though there were couple of songs (or to be exact parts of those songs) that sounded little odd to me during the first time I played... However after listening them through again and again and again, I learned to like them.

Also the sound design was good and it was nice to see little things like water splashing sound when walking in water added to the game.

Only issue that I have is that sometimes when there was multiple sounds playing at once, the sounds drowned to a obscure beep (however this might have been beta-testing weirdness).

Aside from visuals, map design might be one of the best parts in the game...

Each level have their distinct look and feel and they offers something new to the mod... Despite the diversity, the levels still feel well connected and nothing felt out of place. However this might be also the downside...

In my opinion some of the best levels in the mod were in the middle so the latter part felt bit weaker in comparison. Though I have to say that the last four levels had the most innovative gimmicks I have seen so far implemented in any Wolfenstein mod (actually I would have liked those gimmicks to be used more)...
Another problem with the levels were that as they are quite huge, it is easy to get lost in them so that you end up searching the doors...

Anywayy mappers really have done a great work to create rather atmospheric and interesting levels that are fun to investigate... Though be warned, one of them has a sort of a time limit forcing you to act fast...

Final thoughts: Overall this is one great mod with great atmosphere and level design full of surprises around every corner... However I wish there had been some more levels so that there would have been more changes to utilize the new tricks implemented in the latter levels.

 I'll give it the final score of 8.5/10

This is a solid mod that you should really play even though you wouldn't be into superheroes or the Green Arrow. I assure that you will have a mind blowing experience.
