Heh...Hella fun
This genre has some legs left in it.
(At least for the old-timers among us...)

I've never been a mapper. At least not a consistent or good one.
Not fun for me

I started with the default character load out....make do with what I have.

Two fighters, a mage and a rogue.

Characters at level 5, on Dungeon level 3.
Do yourself a favour, don't get sloppy and forget to check for things that are dropped by mobs. It's no fun searching the floor of a dungeon for a forgotten key
And keep your old torches etc...handy for pressure plates and other puzzles and such.

I got to do a little with the standard layout. Liked it a lot. Thanks for the tip ash hadn't thought of that.

It took me quite a long time to realize that the strange flickering light that showed up sometimes was the warning sign that my torches were slowly burning out. Cool detail...

Hit and run...hit and run....hit and run...
Either I'm not so good or they aren't particularly taking it easy on us...

Really like that you have to discover the spells... thru experimenting or by finding scroll..


You can move your backline charaters to frontline qwikly during combat to sneak a melee attack in .. if needed ..
