A neat little mapset that doesn't fully capitalize on its best aspects. Bauhaus has a good first half with some really nice architecture and an urban setting in the first two maps, but the latter two take you out of the normal house setting and replace it with indistinct and abstract gray rooms that I don't like nearly as much. Map 3 at least has a pretty cool layout but map 4 ends the experience on a wonky note. I like the concept, hunting around the map for the EXIT letters to open up the path to the end is neat, but figuring out how to get all the letters can be a massive headache, and the way that every sector of the map links together (plus the very samey looking gray nothing visuals) makes it extremely easy to spent far too long wandering around trying to find any semblance of progress only to randomly stumble into a switch you swear wasn't there last time despite you doing nothing new since then. The other 3 maps are still solid experiences that do make Bauhaus worth checking out, but I wish it stuck to the structure of its first half for the entire runtime.
