The map was fairly large but easy to traverse with the only danger of the map being the robots crushing you but if you dig enough piles of dirt and you can get a golden helmet which makes you immune to the robots foot.
This map introduced the Wunderfizz machine which for 1500 points you could get a random perk. The map takes place in a dig site and the goal of the map is to free Samantha from Agartha, doing so required to build 4 elemental staffs which were essentially the wonder weapons for this map.
Origins is the last map released for Black ops II Zombies and it puts you in World War I with the original four characters as their younger selves.
