A fascinating take on the original. 4/5 stars.

Dark Carnival: Remix is the kind of campaign I'm surprised I don't see more often, taking the premise of an official campaign and filling it with new, original level design and cut content from L4D2's development. I was initially worried the new and old elements would clash, but the level design feels completely natural. What worked in Dark Carnival still works here, and everything has been expanded. Levels are longer and more open -- I especially love Map 4, which I'd say is a definitive improvement over the original.

Despite nailing the big picture stuff, the issues are in the details. Players are silent and speedy moving through flowing water, graffiti and chatter is minimal, and a lot of the scripted dialogue is played with no lip syncing or subtitles, among other gripes. I acknowledge some of these problems were unsolvable until the Last Stand Update, but my point still stands.

Nitpicking aside, you won't regret downloading this. Try it!
