MAP31: Devastation is the thirty-first map of Kama Sutra. It was designed by Adolf Vojta and uses the MAP08 music from TNT: Evilution. It is a modified version of Heretic E1M5: The Citadel intended to play like Hell Revealed MAP22: Resistance is Futile.

Inspiration and development[edit]

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

This map is remake great The Citadel from Heretic. We wanted some map reminding good old HR22 and then I suggested to Method that he could redo this one. Well, at the end I did the map myself probably harder then I planned but we know there are players who could do it. :) About the design I let the map in the original shape, but I had to rebuild some buildings to have the design more simple. I still wonder if HR22 wasn't originally inspirated by the heretic E1M5.
