What? What fountain? What atlas? What bio? WHAT? :shock:

I just read the words on the pillar, nothing important, it just tells you how to find the way to the last level. I don't think there's an alternate ending.

Lol, ok, then I must be slow! How do those letters spell out anything? I guess I'm missing something obvious, I'll look again at the notepad

After all, it took me ages to realise the sky/rain hint!


And funnily enough, your non-hidden words could be enough, if someone's brain is working the right way, to be a spoiler. Though probably a well known spoiler by now.

Ugh. That is almost as bad as the VI EW spell from conflux, except in reverse! I was trying to figure the thing out forwards and backwards, but the top wouldn't make sense so I didn't check anything below too much.

Oh well, then I concur, I finished the game the right way! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

And yeah, you need to get passed the fireballs to get something necessary....

Ahh, I forgot, I've got it all mixed in my head. OK, good night then. I hope that Zed will give us some break, some holidays, a calm week or something! :)

Only one game ending. You may skip las puzzle when check every walls, it just tell where exacly search the secret entrance. There is lot of trapped madman running around and you must catch
Spoiler
DROW = WORD
it sugest to not running around that level like everybody but
Spoiler
message pillar
and when you walk from right to left looking at
Spoiler
you may catch words GOUP THEN WALK WEST
.

And other thing how kill materializer, there was one room above with dead mage who made spell experiments, he write on wall spells, one can kill these monster. From that level was two ways down, one for fighter (to get damage and sword), second for mage (with monster who may be defeat only if you learn spell)

The message is right there and even explains how to get it (run right) so it's my own brain not working. To be fair, long days of work recently! :)

Oh, I spotted the spells on the wall, that was a cool way you gave the needed spells (like anti-poison) where needed.

I like that you catered to two types of play, and added the quirks to the boss monsters. Definitely your dungeons are the ones to watch!

I found the finger bone, I guess I should have tried the

mouse hole
again to realise the joke and get the ring?

I found both the

bone
and the

ring
- but I don't remember using them.

I used the fighter's way (damage and sword), because I couldn't open that gate for mages, but I defeated the
Spoiler
materialiser
with the
Spoiler
normal spell against non-material beings
. Ooops, I must have overlooked some stuff above, I noticed the spells on the walls, but didn't care. I'm probably playing too fast, as Zed mentioned with one of his previous dungeons. I just eat everything I find and I jump into every pit I see. :)

Never mind. Thank you, Zed, for that dungeon! :)

I hope you dont do that in real life. The way for mages was to follow clue

touch slime (near mushrooms)
it open door to pit.

Items like

I'm stuck in the square room with numbers. I killed all the mummies, but I failed to understand these numbers : allways a lot of fireballs ...
I tried to found some logical, checked walls ...

Can I have some tiny subtle clue please, so I can continue ?
Thanks :wink:

ooh, new inventions? Cool. I miss the nice touches from your earlier work, such as the new characters in WoS or the funny skeletons in the earlier dungeons.

Speaking of Well of Souls, I need to get back to playing that, I don't think I got far through it...

My invention is to change neck into forearm (well it look like you have two left hands) so you may hold shield and torch in left hand. Also i removed light spells and made more throwing weapons (no bow or sling) This all because game solo one character with more survival difficulty.

LOL, you probably mean the Well of Fortune! Well of Souls is "one of the possible resting places of the Lost Ark of the Covenant." I think you should stop watching Indiana Jones. :) Or am I wrong? Is there any dungeon called Well of Souls? If yes, then my apology, but I don't know it.

Ooops, but how will I train my wizard levels? :shock: Anyway, it sound like you're really working on it intensively and that you are preparing a very difficult dungeon for us! I'm looking forward to it! :D

that one is unplayable, i can't pass the first door : mummies are killing me instantly. there's not enough room to move and dodge them when they split.

Linflas you should read more carefully. Anyhow, I can't pass the second room, even though I'm pretty I've burnt my hands. The situation seems rotten.

You can open the door (gate) to the next level before you release the mummies and then fight them from the stairs
- that's easy!

As jan said linflas, or if you take lief you can punch the mummies to death before it even comes to that - unless I just lucked that bit

our advice to the master will help you jor! What you need is in the room with the food....as mentioned, burn your hands elsewhere...
