Re: Indie Royale

Thanks, I am buying this for Gemini Rue (made by Wadget Eye Games, who I am a big a fan of).

Re: Whats your favourate roguelike?

re: What makes Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup so good? Personally I really like the way skills are developed. There is an experience pool which is increased when you kill foes and sometimes by other means, and this experience can be allocated to whichever skills you choose to practice at (though the abili...

Re: Whats your favourate roguelike?

I've played a lot of roguelikes, and Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup is definitely my favorite. Right now I am playing the Dungeon Sprints in that game.

Re: Monster spawns

My impression was that the actual monsters spawned did depend on where you were. For instance, near the werewolf hunter Xed I only ever got human and rat spawns. And in the areas with boreheads, I only ever got rat and noximander spawns.

Re: The Anti-Wishlist!! :D

The entire scoring system: For me it was a novelty that wore off pretty fast... I found myself reloading saves to keep trying to get certain titles. I say scrap it to focus on story/gameplay; leave the challenge ideas in the forum. Personally, my one contribution to the Book III Wishlist would be t...

Re: Now this is a new bug...

I have encountered the same exact thing but with noximanders in an earlier version (early June), I think after I switched screens. I was running the game in Windows XP. Made me think of MC Escher, sort of.

Re: Sanitarium

I played it soon after it was published, had a lot of fun with it then. The creepiness of the plot makes up for any weak aspects it might have. I have seen it on sale on gog.com recently.

Re: Maximum number of challenges meet in one game [SPOILER]

eb2_screen14.jpg eb2_screen16.jpg I did not cheat in any capacity. There were a few tricks though, like throwing potions off-center. The game was made easier by finding a source of invisibility potions. Also I relied on flasks of charm quite a bit. Currently I think 29 quests could have been done i...

Re: Completion score, place them here! (press P in game)

I am a major fan of this game. This was not my first run-through, so I wanted a challenge. I managed to complete 10 challenges, leaving out Wealthy Merchant and Jack-of-all-Trades (and the one where you kill 700 things, since I was a pacifist), though it would have been possible to do 12 challenges ...
