Your footsteps echo through the empty halls of the Dungeon. It has taken some time, but you managed to find another way to the next staircase down. One that required you to deactivate a turret. But at least you did not have to confront the goblin party snoring away in the guard room that would have provided a short-cut…

So far so good, you are a ghost… Nobody's going to know you are here.

And that suits you just fine because it's been a long time since you last seen a healing potion, you barely remember it's color…

Introducing: Desolate Mode
This update is named after a special game mode we added to the game: Desolate Mode. if you choose this special setting you will find that both enemies and healing is much sparser. Basically this mode is more about avoiding combat than it is about meeting enemies head-on. It is somewhat experimental, and probably not to everybody's liking, but we think it is a very interesting way to experience the Unexplored's Dungeon of Doom. Especially since the Dungeon still has its full compliment of puzzles, traps and environmental hazards.

Mind your step, though. This mode is not supposed to be easy. Facing the Dungeon of Doom without healing potions (yes, you'll start without!) creates a challenge all by itself. Cautious is probably the operative word here.

More Flavor Content
Remember the contest we ran about ten days ago? We have started adding special flavored content as a reward for the winners. Keep an eye out for those, as they just might lead to something more than just flavor…

We plan to repeat a similar contest in the future, but this time won't do it in the spur of the moment and announce it in advance. So keep an eye on these pages if you want to make a lasting impression on the Dungeon of Doom!
