*This level has been infamous among the community for being overly difficult, repetitive, frustrating, and generally not very fun, along with ''Halo: Combat Evolved'''s [[The Library (Level)|The Library]].<ref>http://www.xbox360forum.com/forum/halo-3/52037-whats-annoying-about-level-cortana.html</ref><ref>http://forum.8bitbrigade.com/showthread.php?t=4009</ref> The entire level is covered with Flood 'sludge', which is thought to be flesh of dead bodies. This means that the layout is sometimes disorienting, when it's not possible to tell directions, or even walls from floors. Enemies easily blend into the scenery, thus making the level very difficult. A few players have commented that the levels layout is simply too confusing for those playing it the first time - this is because of the enormous amount of enemies and maze-like pathways. Some fans have even claimed it is one of the worst Halo single player missions ever made and a few have even labeled it as the 'worst video game level ever designed'.<ref>http://forum.8bitbrigade.com/showthread.php?t=4009</ref> In contrast, other players enjoy the level for its challenge, and many praise Bungie for making this as realistic as possible.
