The first one is ‘AReyeP’s First Add On’ made in early 1993 and found on a backup disk 9 years later. 10 well designed levels that don’t look dated at all!
The second is ‘Wolf Odyssey” made later that year. Initially stated to be his first add on (until the other set was found), it has 10 levels that are large and well-designed. The various ways in which the guards are used are particularly effective.

16th February 2013: WLHack Announcements
Toni Salonen (WLHack) has decided to continue modding and has made some announcements:
“I will restart the Trail of Schabbs so you can expect some new maps, graphics, etc, and revisited storyline. But before ToS I will be making a SDL conversion of the False Spear. This won’t be a 1:1 port of the original but something completely different: I will remake some of the levels (especially the last one) and graphics will be updated. Also this time there will be new music for the levels and not just the original SoD ones. And I will include some features from ToS SDL demo like the new enemy types. ” – Toni Salonen (WLHack)
