The dungeon is the main setting for every battle. It and its treasure must be defended from the invading heroes.
Dungeon layout[ | ]
Dungeons consist of multiple rooms, each with a different purpose of dealing with heroes. The order of each room (Other than the Master's) is completely random.
- 2 Monster rooms - up to 3 monsters can be placed in each room.
- 2 Trap rooms - each room can have a single trap to attack heroes as they progress through.
- 1 spell room - the master can cast a spell to attack heroes or enhance the next specified room.
- 1 Master room - where the dungeon master waits to battle the (remaining) heroes. The game ends if the master dies.
Additional rooms can be unlocked after meeting certain criteria:
- Disaster room - Dungeon exclusive spell room. Reach Week 29 when the first Champion tier battle can be chosen.
- Fountain of Youth/Campfire/Altar - Recovery room for heroes that heals 30% Life, 30% Morale and 2 penalties with the highest stack respectively. One of these will appear after finishing Year 1.
- Extra Monster room - Finish Year 1 with Slaveholder.
