Choose by what you want to learn
- Start with Kino if you want one familiar map for practicing basic input before investigating its progression mechanics.
- Try Nacht if you want to focus your notes on a compact space and room/door decisions. Small does not mean easy.
- Compare Der Riese and Ascension when you want to study progression dependencies. Objective routes still require browser-specific gameplay verification.
- Leave Moon for a session in which you can pay attention to equipment and environment as well as movement. Its transfer and decoded budgets are the largest in this archive.
Why there is no “best map” score
A beginner recommendation, a high-round route and a small download solve different tasks. We have not completed controlled survival runs on all ten maps, so a numbered difficulty ranking would imply evidence we do not have. Use the map-specific questions and budgets to choose the next useful session.
