Title
Underappreciated Expansion for an Unappreciated Game
I know seeing Sunstorm Interactive instead of Monolith will turn most off from playing cryptic passage. But this is an expansion that shouldn't be overlooked. Cryptic Passage manages to deliver a campaign that could go toe to toe with the main game.

What it doesn't offer in new items or enemies, it more than makes up for in incredible level design and atmosphere. The secret level alone could be considered one of the best levels in the series, it's just that breathtaking at times. Some will be turned off by the more horror themed direction. But for those who just have a general love for gothic design you'll have a blast.

This wouldn't change your opinion if you didn't enjoy the base game, but for those who finished the main campaign and are looking for more. I can't recommend it enough.
