Really rough and crude build quality, feels like 1997. Fun and challenging though. Charming theme and ending. Recommended!

Many terrifying foes have lied in wait at the end of Quake episodes. But not quite so terrible as the Harbinger of Fish.

10/10 would fish again

Well, 10/10 seems more than a little generous, but this is certainly an enjoyable enough blast. And the final boss has a unique quality.

Very simple start map, with hardly any detail. It does have all difficulty selections and a rat spawner!

Super short and simple, rat infested base map. Both gameplay and map geometry is a bit clunky.

Very tight cave map, with an occasional bigger room. Not much space to maneuver in this, also not very pretty to look at.
One of the Shamblers, in the slime bridge room, likes to throw himself off the cliff. Amusing.

Another super linear and short map, with hardly anything going on. This time, taking place in an outdoor area, with a few buildings and a guard tower.

A handfull of rooms, through a base with some crates. Over before you know it.

Funny boss fight with a custom boss. It's amusing, but doesn't present much of a challenge.

Overall, there are indeed a lot of rats in this episode. Most of the maps are short, simple and have slightly under par geometry.
A lot of tight spaces in most of the maps. Still, you can enjoy a quick playthrough.
