This page features all our custom map reviews, grouped into three categories - large campaigns, small campaigns and single maps. You can scroll through the page as a whole, you can click the links below to skip to the section you want, or alternatively you can view the review schema.
The reviews page is currently in a state of transition. Those scores that are out of ten use the old schema, which was more forgiving. Scores that take the form of percetages use our new, harsher, schema and are therefore likely to be lower; for this reason, during the transitional period, the old scores of re-reviewed maps are shown in parentheses. For more info about the new schema, see the link above.
