MAP20: Traps is the twentieth map of Kama Sutra. It was designed by Adolf Vojta and uses the music track "233.778 Celsius" from Duke Nukem 3D by Lee Jackson. Due to pitch bend compression caused by the conversion to MUS format, the track does not play as intended.

Inspiration and development[edit]

Adolf Vojta's comments on this level[1]:

The tittle hints something.. expect some nice traps when you will go through this map. The gameplay seems to be more than easy at the start but then will suddenly come a good cauldron. Luckily I decided to give there an Invul. :)

Walkthrough[edit]

Secrets[edit]

  1. The teleporter you start the map from is tagged as a secret and is unavoidable. (sector 3)
  2. When you jump southwest, out of the red brick building, while looking at the stairs leading to the red key area, look to your left (northeast) and go further. Drop down to find an invulnerability and the rocket launcher sitting on a rising platform. (sector 889)
