The Halo Exam

BY: IxGironimo89xI

Description: My favorite maps in Halo 3 have always been the puzzle maps. I love how they test your ability to think rather than skill at the game. Plus its fun to see all the creativity that goes into puzzle maps. After playing many of them, I decided to make my own. This isn't my first puzzle map, it is the one that I am most proud of and have put in the most work. And that's how this map came to be!

The Map: The map is very original from any other puzzle maps I have seen so far. It is both a minigame and a puzzle in the way you go through a series of ten increasingly harder puzzles to get points. After you pass through the challenge, you get a point and pass through a teleporter to the next challenge. In the map description, I have given ranks based on the number of points you score, just as a fun bonus. The map starts off extremely simple for the first test, while the last one is more than difficult. The map does not require you to be a good halo player. It challenges your observation skills, timing, and the ability to learn from a great deal of trial and error.

The Gametype: The gametype is VIP allowing you to get each of the points at the end of the challenge. Since it's VIP, ONLY ONE PERSON MAY PLAY THE MAP AT A TIME. Playing it with anymore will ruin the process of the map. You start out with a pistol and normal sheilds and health. You are also able to see the location of the next point to direct you. I assure you though that seeing it, will NOT assist in getting through the challenge. The trick is to use whats around you when it is time, and take every step with caution.
