Death Run is a Saxton Hale mod, in which the Red team must traverse a course filled with traps. The blue team, which is usually comprised of one player, is separated from the red team and given various buttons to press in order to activate the traps and kill the Red team. Each map ends differently, but the common finale of each map is disarming Hale, and humiliating him in some way. Another ending for several maps is a mini-game, which can vary from standing on a color to avoiding platforms that break beneath you. There is generally also a insta-win option for players who wish not to waste time of fallen teammates waiting to play again.
