Gameplay was good for the most part. The entire beginning was very trap heavy which will hurt the score a bit. The decorations were nothing new. It's all the same designs that have been used hundreds of times before. If this were an original level, it would get a 9. But it's not
Gameplay: 7/10
Decorations 9/10
8/10 -4 for originality
Overall 4/10

They don't really allow any creativity, it's really easy to build and their gameplay usually consists of lots of fakes, and lots of annoying wave obstacles. This is actually one of the better Nine Circles levels I've seen in the level suggestions, but it's design and originality really hurt its score. |

It's only a bad idea because you decided to be an **** about it How was I being a **** about it? I don't have to justify myself in saying that taking FOUR points for just being an overused trend is a bit of a stretch, if it would have been one, or maybe two points it would have been a bit more fair. I don't think originality should account for half the damn score. |

Let me explain this slowly...
Nine Circles level = Unoriginal
Unoriginal = No creativity
No creativity = Lower score
Why should someone get the same score for using a trend which has been done many times before? If it's not their own ideas for design and gameplay, how do you expect it to get a super high score? It could've used some cool decor, or maybe even unique color combos and design, but because this is literally the exact same as all other NC levels, the originality shouldn't be high.

It would get a high one for originality. |

I don't think originality should account for half the damn score. I barely account for originality in my reviews but this level is an identical copy of the hundreds of nine circles levels out there. If this was the first 9 circles ever, it would get an 8. Because this is the 137th one, I'm going to take off points. There is absolutely nothing original about this level. It does absolutely nothing unique and is a watered down version of something already done better. Most level judges give "usual nine circles" levels no better than a decent. |

Originality doesn't have anything to do with how good a level is though. |
