I decided to pay tribute to the heroic classic in the form of Wayfarer, but I couldn't get past two weeks. It's just incredibly boring. Apparently, the moment when this map could have seemed interesting is hopelessly lost.

Lately, I've been having a very unpleasant feeling that there will soon be nothing left to play. There are a couple of maps by Aeris left, and maybe something interesting can still be found on gamerhome. Although, there is still hope for the new Paragon, and a very faint belief that Nautilus will eventually finish RotSK.

Look for a dynamic map, not a corridor-style one, where the AI starts attacking immediately; you won't be bored there. For example, "First Blood," if you haven't played it. I also haven't played Last Crusade yet.
But my priority is still on maps from gamerhome, where I downloaded about a dozen of them. I found a couple of decent maps, but it's a matter of trial and error.
Another option is to play through already completed maps, but with conditions or restrictions, for example, gradually increasing the difficulty: "No reading the Prospector," "No using the editor," "No using Berserk/Necromancy/Diplomacy," or a hardcore "No saving" (not suitable for all maps :)).
Also, a separate option is a speedrun.
