Venture into a treacherous realm where volcanic cliffs merge with twisted swamp paths. Navigate deadly obstacles and face tough choices as you seek the Den of Evil, dark source fueling an undead plague. Only the boldest adventurers can survive this winding path and bring peace to the haunted land.

I guess for playing with friends the map is just fantastic. The landscapes are pleasing to the eye, look beautiful and original!
Thanks for the interesting map!!!

Author: RXD, 18-04-2025 23:19 Very good - Magma II - The Serpent's Trail very good map
decent difficulty, map feels hand made, quite immersive, good progression, one of the top maps for sure, for the map size you choose its probably even one of the top 3 ever made
implementing fly and also closing some areas with cave tile is smart, it was a good idea, it didnt spoil the fun
As usual, in the end it got rather hideous, but after you kill all others, you can take your time to collect some army to finish the map
Great work, thank you for uploading

Thank you for such positive feedback, I am glad that you enjoyed map!
Decision about new map is not made yet as these projects are very time consuming, if there will be new map you will have to wait a bit longer for sure.

The new map is big, especially in terms of the contents. So many quests, secrets — it's just XL, but space is certainly not wasted. At the same time it looks great. This is nothing new for fans of the mapmaker. There are few new things though:
- classically Fly was banned, not this time! Fly is (fairly) easy to obtain and it brings a different dynamic to the gameplay. At the same time TP and especially Blind are ridiculously difficult to find :D
- new kinds of quests, e.g., a reward for defeating a hero. It's new, especially because these heroes are available via prisons. In the end I got all of them and could not finish the quest. Sometimes you have to make a decision which quest you want to fulfill, as they have competing requirements. Cool.
The difficulty is very well-balanced. CPU gets nice boosts that don't feel like cheating. The organic growth of the CPU heroes and their armies looks very realistic. The final battle is epic, but if one explores the map they should be able to gather the necessary troops without grinding, which is nice.
Thanks for feedback! - Magma II - The Serpent's Trail
Thank you for such positive and detailed review! You have ponited out many aspects of the map. It's always nice and motivating to hear such feedback. I'm glad that you liked new ideas (fly was quite risky to introduce but I think it paid off) - my goal is to introduce and try out fresh ideas in each new map. Cheers
