The Dungeon is filled with monsters to slay, most of them commensurate in might to the Dungeon level. On occasion, though, a more powerful creature will work its way up to one of the higher levels, so watch out. Sometimes you will find another user on the Dungeon level matching their Experience Level. Some monsters keep maps of the Dungeon level they are on. If you find one, you will be able to display all rooms on that level. If your Intellect is above 50, you will be able to keep a map of all the rooms you have been in. A key follows:
There are many other items you can find as well. Potions of all types, as well as wands and scrolls, can be found in empty chambers and hidden caves. But beware: sometimes a monster or an armor-spoiling bat may be lurking in the shadows of these "safe" rooms too. Some monsters might even possess weapons that can not be purchased in the Square. These Weapons or Armor may be cursed or have an ego, giving them unique powers. Pay attention to the directions available to go in the Dungeon. Running into a wall will cause damage to your Hit Points. Your options will be available right beside the prompt. |
When you
enter the Dungeon, you will start on the floor one higher than your Experience Level. Each
mazelike level will vary in size; the lower you go, the possibility of a larger floor
size. Do not bother keeping maps, as each level is randomly generated each time you enter.
The top half of your screen holds a top-view of the current dungeon floor. The player's
position is highlighted as -YOU-. The bottom half of the screen is for a rolling,
text display. The prompts will guide the player along their adventure. Please note that
the dungeon will accept most cursor keys as a substitute for the directions, North, South,
East, West.
