Adventure is a map by Sultan William. At the time of writing this review his biography simply reads "Lulz." on this page.

Adventure is a remake of level 1-1 from Super Mario Bros. The players begin in a spawn room with lots of ammo for the pistol you'll have moving forward. The side-view world exists in a large, open skybox room which you can easily fall off the sides of and die. Goombas are replaced by headcrabs and turtles are replaced by zombies. Mushrooms and coins are replaced by nothing because they aren't there. There's ? blocks but they don't seem to do anything. The overall interactivity of Super Mario Bros. is missing in general, as even the pipe warp doesn't work. The map ends abruptly when the players reach the flagpole.

This is a weird map to review because I don't what merit to review it on. It's not fun, impressively made, interesting, surprising. It's a letdown in every way that it doesn't put effort to recreate the functionality of a Super Mario Bros. level. I feel like everybody knows that these kinds of ideas don't work but people make them because it moves the goalpost from having made a good map to having made a map that looks like something recognizable. In that way, it's hard to say it looks a lot like the original Mario level because the ported pixel textures are horribly JPEG compressed, the skybox is default, the enemies mismatch, you are only able to view the level from the most ugly possible angle, and many of the platforms are too high to jump in the level. The basic layout of the level is there, and it's completable. Even the basic gameplay of shooting zombies with the pistol is about as bland as Sven gameplay gets.

If you're looking for a map for any purpose you can skip this.

Pros:

• When the mapper finished this they probably though "Yep, I recreated the layout of Super Mario Bros 1-1"
• It's over quickly

Cons:

• It's ugly
• It's barely functional
• Unoriginal idea
• No creativity went into transitioning features from the Mario map into Sven
