Hee hee, good story, HJP! Imprisoned Again is also my favourite dungeon, so I enjoyed reading your text. Finding the fourth key to the upper parts of the towers was really painful, for me too - it took me ages to find that you must climb down one of the pits (I found it only by a coincidence). And ...

THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS TO THE GAME ITSELF

The actual game is downloadable here



(This story is written "as I play" so somewhat boring on some sections. You have been warned.)

So, it is time for Imprisoned again. At corridor ...

So one champion it is. Other three turn into bones.

I think two champions is optimal. You still have the full melee force and more carrying capacity than a single guy/gal.

But with two, you have two that consume water and two that require healing. Not to forget that with one it is harder on many ...

That dungeon starts with one Champion, I got another quite soon. Now I'm in Hall of Champions and took take up to four. Of course, I make final decision, but what you recommend? 1, 2, 3 or 4 champions? There always can be some "accidents" so that 1-3 champions just get wasted

beowuuf wrote:Some of Zed's earlier ones fit that description for RTC, and sucinum's Imprisoned Again has a large but simple combat element. I feel I'm missing something obvious. Oh, of course, Sophia's Dark Portal is a short but hard and unusual puzzler.

OK, I think it is time for ass kicking in Prison again...

Congratulations HJP, and thanks for the good read. Should you play some custom dungeons, I would be glad to read similar journey reports from you.

Thanks all for comments.

What custon dungeon you recommend? There are quite many of them and I do not have good experience on any. I already tried ...

Congratulations! An epic tale, and some epic stats!

Thanks. On previous attempt I just got bored with endless wandering around without knowing where to go first, now I knew that all ways lead to DDD and about only things you absolutely need from JOW's are keys to open spesific doors at DDD. There ...

(This post contain some harsh language, for people over 11 years or something :twisted: )

After years of waiting, there is light at the end of the tunnel (Descent 3 trailer) ! Now I have some common knowledge about dungeon and I want to finally complete CSB. This time I decided to start over and ...

Nice to know.

On that topic page I see 6 topics, lowest is "Death Row and **** *****. Hehe. That explains what I need to find.

((( Hmm. At DAIN-path there seems to be a lock that "should" eat Gold key ( At least it looks like same as many other Gold key locks. ). But it doesn't. Tried several times but no luck. Strange. )))

Closed this window and got back to http://www.dungeon-master.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=28 page. My ...

I "completed" ROS Path ( Or at least I think so. There were 2 doors I wasn't able to open ). There were some nice tricks like that "Give up.Pull the lever". NO! About 20 throws later that problem was solved. After that it took some time to figure out what next. Then I noticed Torch in the wall ...

Sh*t, I just figured out ( Or remembered ) that there was an "useless teleport" on Fulya Pit-level ( Speed boots ). On Ninja-path there were just similar ( Throw item and it teleports on pressure plate and opens the door ).

Maybe that is not the solution, but...

Pretty much travelling to get back ...

My point was you seemed to like hard dungeons/harder scenarios, so I thought you have refrained from using the hints and tried to solve everything without. Which would be impressive! This dungeon has many secrets and tactics, evidently shown through the speed runs.

Oh yeah. I like challenges, but ...

Oh yeah, somehow I managed to stop them generating. But just when just standing and stabbing there seemed to be endless amount. Or?

On that Hint Oracle there seems to be many "pages". That "name" tells something sometimes, then you do not need to click more info. For example that Monster Flood II-name told just enough. I didn't need any more info, just that there are endless amount of enemies if you don't do something. I don't ...

I cannot understand how one character can be 'quite enough', yet you complain about lack of space! (HJP)

You shouldn't be using the oracle yet... not if you are as intrepid as you seem...

Am I missing some point here?!

Well, I just use that Hint Oracle, if I'm "stuck" or want to know if there ...

Hmmm. For a 1st run through a new dungeon, I would say taking more than one character is a good idea for capacity.

And I think having dud items and dead ends/failures is part of the game. If there weren't any, and every item had a use, it would be a little predictable i think.

One character is ...

Ok.

Now I have to find a Dragon to test this brand new Dragon Fang.

Easy to guess that it is...

1. Very awesome against Dragons

Or

2. Using it against Dragons does damage to you or something like that :)=

Let's see what happens.

Some people say this game is "impossible" or something like that ...

Just had some funny things like Dragon Den, Monster Flood II and so on. Then I arrived to a place with some demons. One had Master Key. Master key opened a lock and I went inside. There seemed to be place called Fulya Pit.

Hint Oracle said something about 4 Corbums. I only have one.

I can guess ...

About that Dead End-thing.

I wandered around level for about 5 minutes, returned to end of corridor and so on. Nothing useful still didn't happen.

There are many examples of games, where you can complete level without gathering very important item or information. But if you must have that item on ...

Ah, at last good melee weapon, Executioner.

After some travelling, Diabolic Demon Director-system was the thing for the first time.

---

Then became this Dead end-thing. Very hard to guess what happens.

I didn't bother to back off, I just hacked down those armour-sword dudes with "stand and fight ...

The runes for the spell usually make sense only after the spell is completed, but it would give you fireball, the healing potions, etc and many potions, quite quickly. Plus let you realise the first row of symbols is power

Yep, first rune was quite clear. I tested what is the difference between 1 ...

Firstly, welcome to the terrors and confusion of CSB :). You said you didn't understand the meaning of terms such as "Ku"...well allow me to explain - in the spell window there are four sets of six runes. The last set of these is Ku, Ros, Dain, Neta, Ra, and Sar.
Ku is obviously the shape of a ...

Oh yeah. On almost every other game I spare every good item ( One use or limited use of course ) and in the end I may have completed the game and have much great items left.

I remember when I decided to complete DM on my Amiga-computer. Year was like 1995 or something. After some "training", I started new game, Re-Incarnated 2 characters and began raiding.

---

My friend told me that Magical boxes are very useful but one box can be used only one time. I checked what ...

I'll check Hint Oracle If I still have proper Save Game.

Hint Oracle says it is/was Mongor.

The Rapier should definitely be a better weapon than Storm, as Thrust deals more damage than Chop, and the attack speed of Jab is very high. There are even better weapons to be found, though. I suppose the dragon you killed is Mongor, at the lowest level of the KU way. If that is the case, did it ...

I see. Quite nice that there are this type of "lottery" where you can get very good stuff.

Quite stupid though that you have the best body armor but your best melee weapon is Storm that you found on first room. It seemed to be better than Sword, Rapier, Biter or Falchion but compared to DM's ...

Ok. I started CSB with one character. After some wandering on lower (?)levels, I came back to "Supplies for the quick"-place.

There seemed to be some new stuff. For example some type of armor. I already had Plate-series armors and thought that there cannot be any better armor stuff in the alcove ...

How can I make these statements less confusing?

For example.

"Moreover, each dungeon level has an associated dungeon level multiplier. In other words, if you are at level 1 on dungeon, dungeon level multiplier is 1. At dungeon level 2, it is 2 and so on. In Dungeon Master, the deeper you are in ...
