Dungeon Master Forum

I managed a modest solo run of 33.8 mins! Nice, that didn't take long! I haven't started trying any solo runs, but I think I'll give it a go. I need to try and decide on speed settings as seems to run quick on my new computer but might just be imagining it. I felt it was faster on my PC with Extra ...

On level 9 (ie the Scorpion level) you can indeed clear out both areas behind the 'Choose your door' options. Each area has a monster that carries a further Key of B which is intended to be used at 30,22 (both areas funnel to this spot, though each area has a pressure plate and door first so you can...

Practice and patience

Have you seen Antman's CSB speed runs?

I managed a modest solo run of 33.8 mins! Tried the Chambers of the Guardian - I'm still undecided on this route. Possibly is slightly quicker if you get some good blows on the rockpile. Was fun to do it again, I need to try and decide on speed settings as seems to run quick on my new computer but m...

Thanks for the analysis and thoughts! I wouldn't be too surprised if you find yourself having a go, especially if you have ideas up your sleeve, which it seems like you do! I think you know the dungeon a lot better than me overall. I only started trying when I thought using an altar of vi and thoug...

I do like a nice pickled gherkin.

Press Escape, it will pause it.

It's not a long recording - unfortunately for me lol.

A sudden spurt of activity on the forum! Old faces, new ones, and welcome to you neophytes. I'd love it to be like the glory days

As for me, I'll end up like one of those golems that guard the firestaff. Here forever more...

No worries!

Just watched it through, a cunning mix of skill and tactics. And I have to say, quite a bit of bad luck with monster positions, but I'll come back to that. My thoughts before I pressed play were that there were definite improvements that could be made on my time with simple moving efficiency - more ...

Well. Talk about rusty! About as sharp as a falchion. Amazing how much you forget, like the key sequences right at the start!

I think I have a rather elegant solution to the worms... Time to investigate.

This is really interesting stuff, itching to see the video! I remember I got very lucky with the worms and saved a big chunk of time. I think my reasoning for taking Stamm was his stamina drains curiously slowly and that I'd save on sleep. That said, he needed training for the mana so is offset by t...

Very, very good! I haven't seen the run yet, but look forward to it! I remember spending a long time setting the original. At least I still have the single character record

Stunning work!

This is easy to miss as is in the Java section:

I've been playing this on my Android phone and am impressed. Needs work though. You can find out easily enough in The Google Play store for free.

I've just started playing, so far I am impressed. I will report back once completed.

Try the CSBWin alternate goal of collecting every object and killing
every monster. Then you can be called an expert.

Intriguing. I shall give this a go.

Looks fantastic, will definitely be playing later!

Very interesting read indeed. So many games I have never heard of! Good to see Bane of the Cosmic Forge rated so highly.

The Elven boots increase carrying capacity (they don't increase your strength though). Armour does have an effect, though seemingly small. Items have base figure, and a sharp resistance figure. More can be found here: http://dmweb.free.fr/?q=node/259 Other items have interesting characteristics. The...

Anyway, getting back to the characters ;-). When people first play the game they had reasons to pick who they did. I imagine these range from "I like the look of he/she/it" to "I have a beard, I am going for wizards". Or maybe you took the ones with most mana or hp; or if you re ...

I honestly didn't see much difference between "thrust" and "melee" in terms of damage or recovery. The saber and the rapier were about equal, but the axe seemed to do a bit more damage and you could chop before you could melee if you're working on getting started with fighter le...

If you 'war cry' with the zero mana characters, they soon gain a priest level. I find Stamm to be the best character regarding stamina drain, though not entirely sure why this is.

Thank you for the comments, much appreciated! I'll have to have a good look at the editor and my maps, and replay some of the raised points. Accidentally throwing items away is something that crops up in many dungeons, though I do recall that in the lava area there was a mechanism where they were te...

Probably used them all over the years at some point, but there are some I generally never use. Wu Tse, Boris, Tiggy - rarely Darou, Nabi and Wuuf. I tend to only take one or two characters and the primary character is usually Stamm, Leif or Sonja - including in many custom dungeons. Though Azizi is ...

EotB 3 went overboard - one click, all weapons attack. I like the delicacy of the DM system, and discovery - ie the stab of the DIamond Edge (original - RTC version unintentionally reduces this attack power)

Hello everyone! Sorry for the late reply, I must have missed the email. Am glad you have figured it out. This was kind of a test dungeon for myself and RTC - would welcome any criticism (constructive ;-)) Though I'll have to familiarise myself again with it! And check in more often for sure. The sil...

The Dungeon Master is back! I hope you are well, Adamski. The 'worst parts' are still a long way ahead of most other games better parts! I was thinking more relatively to the rest of the game lol. I shall update my review when I have finished the game again - I too have been very busy, not much dung...

It's DM2 as a template, but with many twists! The shops are the same, but there is one new one with a lot of unique items.
