A playthrough of the LEGO Rock Raiders custom level "Water 'n' Lava", a map made by addictgamer (@additcgamerreal) in 2008.

The map is a modification of Ice Spy that replaces most of the layout, though keeping the object placement the same. The level requires the player to travel across water and avoid Ice Monsters.
The level was supposed to have lava, but due to a bug with the map editor tool at the time it was not saved. An updated version was made, but that version of this map was lost after the then-owner of the RRU site deleted all the past site uploads without backing most of them up while creating a new upload system. Seriously.
I attempted to recreate the updated version based on descriptions, however it messed up and would not spawn all of the energy crystals in the walls that it should have.

Review: More original than many other early custom levels, but another one that obviously wasn't tested before it was published. The use of monster layout from Ice Spy was creative, though the lack of one of the two things in the level name was disappointing. Not great... but then again, the updated version might've been better, but now we'll never know.
