One Room, Bone Room, Two Rooms.
Following a proven pattern (not including the Half-Life: Alyx One Room challenge), Map Labs has unpredictably expanded to Three Rooms with this Test Tube competition! The entrants were technically limited to three rooms, but there’s also some trickery at work in some of the maps here. Enjoy the 21 entries!
As always, if you’re interested in learning more about Map Labs and maybe even participate in their upcoming challenges, visit the Map Labs Discord.

I kinda forgot most of these entries. I will have to replay them again for a full review. All I can say is some are good, and some are bad.
I thought this was one of the more enjoyable Test Tubes.
There were fully 8 exceptional maps, of which I rated Batrachomyomachy and The Omnipresent Gaze of the Transhuman Arm of the Combine Overwatch as perfect “10’s”, ie; PFs, and Dome 454, Big World, Electric Matter, Fright Rail and Distress Signal as 9/10, ie; close to PFs.
The overall PIL rating was because I found 8 of them to be duds. Nevertheless, there is a lot of great play time here which is especially appreciated with the lack of other mapping action.
