Story:
"Dragoth, my minion, listen to me!" Lord Chaos spoke and looked down at his minion. "Theron has gathered four adventurers and is up to conquer Mt. Ananias. I dont have finished my (team-)dungeon yet, so i want you to 'invite' them to your castle until i have done." - "But Lord, all my councils have left me. Only Captain Oknard is left to care for them. And I have used up all my ressources to complete my new castle, Skullkeep." - "Out of my eyes, Dragoth! If your Captain fails, you will take care of Theron and his bunch personally!" Lord Chaos teleports Dragoth back to his castle..."If he can only keep Theron busy until I have completed my dungeon..." he thinks as he wanders around in his throne room. "Maybe i should help him a bit..."

Aim:
Find and kill Dragoth.

Notes:
My first try of creating a story to a dungeon...
Created with DMUTE by George Gilbert and CSBuild by Paul Stevens. Thanks to Paul Stevens for help with the conversion and thanks to Beowuuf for patching the PC-Version.

Version 1.3 is for DM PC
Version 1.4 requires CSBWin v9.6v15 or newer

Difficulty: Adept

Size: as DM


Instructions:
Replace the Dungeon.dat of CSBWin with the one included.

History:

• Version 1.4
  • Converted the Dungeon to CSBwin
    fixed some bugs (like 100)
• Version 1.3
  • Skeleton guardian bug fixed
• Version 1.2
  • Tiny tweaks: purple worms are hexed to look correct, there is a vital turquoise key now placed, and a test teleporter has been removed.
    There is a bug in this version with the initial skeleton: the last teleporter in the sequence is 'party activated' and it should be 'monster activated'. With this bug, it's virtually impossible to get out of the prison...
• Version 1.1
  • The totally bugfixed and balanced version
• Version 1.0
  • Initial release

Download this dungeon from this Shared OneDrive (in the 'Custom Dungeons' folder)

I tried playing this with CSBwin9.6v5 as your html file
specified but it could not load the game. Version 9.6Plus15
seems OK. Should I release it with that version?

oh - that's the pain of copy/pasting. plz correct this, i will correct the text in the description, too.
btw: could you use the blanko-file i created for the dungeon-page?

Reviewer: Michael Hutton (a.ka. Beowuuf)
Gameplay: 7. Great layout and tower/restock increases difficulty and focuses on areas.
Originality: 8. Lots of great puzzles, and the four towers idea.

Difficulty: 8. Lots of combat, or course
Puzzles: 8. Nice puzzles, great originality.
Size: 9
Replayability: 8
Craft: 7
Game Ending: 8
Atmosphere: 8. The whole keep/tower layout just feels logical and right, giving it a fantastic feel.
Overall: 8. Definitely one to play.
Best part: The start in the prison/keep.
Worst part: Needing to drop down a pit to solve a puzzle... a blip on an otherwise great set of puzzles and levels.

Just Finished it !
It was nice.
Best part: the towers with increased difficulty. I began with the north east one, giving a lot of food.
The end was though.
Difficulty: rather easy, only the South-East tower I found it more difficult.

There is two kitchen, and I ended with a spare Ra Key and Turquoise Key I did not use.
Also show me your strength is displayed as "show me your strenght", and there are two "the kitchen"

I had some great time in this dungeon, thank you sucinum, good job.

Will do Imprisonned Again, now !
