Didn't realize that on hardcore mode, when you died, you LOSE your save file. So I got to lvl 34, took me a week or so, couple hours a night, and then just tonight.....all died. Went to reload....the rest is history...not coming back...too hard.

It was nice at start, but after several levels becomes too boring. Several comments:
1. Too much items. You spend most of the time by looking and discarding them. I.e. if you dont have some class in party - why items for that class drops?
2. Dexterity stat? As I understood it is useless for mages, clerics, etc. Why then it increases?
3. After you got the point how to fight - all fights are the same. On 'hardcore'
game is still easy and you use only 1-2 spells. (I used 2 clerics+2 mages)
4. Wanted to rate 4/5, but I got third badge and didnt get 1st and 2nd. This is very strange. No more than 3 then.

No..I take that back..you spend 98% of your time comparing equipment and deciding weather or not to equip it. I'm not kidding I've been playing 25 minutes and 20 minutes of that has been staring at the equip screen..it ruins a decent series for me.

Great original! Surprising how similar it is to book of dread, which to me means that it was so great that there was little room to improve upon. I don't miss the shop too much, but I do miss the ability to go through multiple rooms at a time (dungeon pathfinding?).
Can't wait till the third comes out.

Just use 2 warriors and 2 rangers. For the first 10 levels, explore and complete the dungeon 100%. You'll have so many good items, you won't know what to do with them. By the time you kill The Corruptor, you'll have close to 15 Scrolls of Deception. From here on out, try to find the exit as fast as possible. You won't have any troubles earning the Hardest of Core Badge.

AsaysAliNN, you must have deleted your cookies somehow (or perhaps have your computer set so that it doesn't record them when leaving???). I have always exited by going to menu first, but I just tried new games without exiting, just backing out of a page, and they saved the game no matter where I was, even if in the middle of a battle (though doing that, I had to restart the battle). If you used something like CCleaner, just find where your game cookies are stored, then go to Options, then Exclude, then Add that location(s), and it won't clear game info in the future (though you will want to periodically go there to individually delete unwanted cookies). Good luck.

There are 9 levels for story mode. If you're looking for the badge, just search for the way down and don't bother with enemies too much.

I played Book of Dread first. Then found this one. My BIGGEST beef? No shops. My second... not being able to move around as in Book of Dread. But other than that, a GREAT game.

Wow this game is awesome :D Perfect for people that love magic/medieval/anything to do with swords and magic. I personally think this is a good game even though it doesnt have a sprite for the characters 5/5 love it

my combination is:1 rogue 1 warrior(in front) 2 rangers(behind),rangers use stun wich alows the rogue to kill any creature and the warrior uses all his power instantly kill a unit..

On most of the lower difficultys, you can 1-turn the corrupter by using a Ranger, A Rouge, A Cleric, and a Warrior, in that order. 1st: Ranger uses pin, 2nd: Rouge uses cripple, 3rd: Cleric uses Anoint on Warrior, 4th: Warrior uses Overwhelm on Corrupter. No messy fighting with mirror Enimies needed.

It would be nice if the difficulty of the game can be chosen separately from the penalties...I want to play extreme, but not with the game over and fewer loot penalties. Of course, players who decide to choose those penalties would get some kind of reward...higher score/special badges or something? (I don't know). Thumbs up if you think this would be cool.

Dunno why, but right now many games have a loading-problem (maybe it´s my pc..). I can´t make them work. Anyone else having similar problems?

pretty cool game, needs a shop to sell the stuff you pick up and some way to make the gameplay faster (like being able to move to any square visited in one klick) id keep playing it with those 2^^

This would be much better if it had an auto-equip button so I didn't have to look through everything to see what is the best thing to equip.

So here's the story of how I won:
My rogue had a base damage of 303, so I figured I could give her as many buffs as possible and one shot any character. I gave my Cleric Anoint, and my warrior Inspire, and my Rogue hide and pierce defenses. First, the rogue hid, then the cleric used anoint on the rogue, then the warrior used inspire, then the wizard did whatever, then the Corruptor did whatever, But when it was the rogue's turn, she came out of hiding and did pierce defenses. OHKO. I killed the corruptor in one hit.

Well I am having some trouble getting the impossible achievement to register. I have reached lvl51 but its saying that my highest is lvl33. I still do not have my achievement. D: Does anyone know if there is a bug with this or if it is just screwing up for me? Thanks!
P.S. Yes I did play it on hardcore

Currently using a team of 4 mages. All point go into INT except 1 which goes to END for about 10 lvls. Always get gear for INT,HP Regen,MP Regen and LETH,STUN and VENOM. 1st few pts, get 2 mages Elec Storm and another 2 Incinerate. Then, get the others the spells the other ones have. After that, get Cosmic Prison. You will blow through almost every fight(unless you let 1 die by not utulizing potions).

I am now the proud owner of the impossible and hard badge of this game, but not the easy badge... Well I'll just keep it that way, that easy badge is way too damn hard for me.

So don't check equipment after every level. Just check after battling a boss. If you've picked a decent party composition and build strategy, you don't need tip-top equipment to deal with the rif-raff monsters. And after you defeat them, you should be able to easily identify junk stuff, just don't pick it up.

Check out garin's blog, Monstrum. There is a third game in the pipeline, Monster's Den:Godfall, although it has no release date yet. It looks fantastic, with lots of new content and great artwork. I'm still hooked on the original game, despite having made it to level 50 hardcore, because there's so many different character and weapon combos to try out. I'm not feeling impatient. It's well worth the wait. These games are superb.

Don't forget that you can go down a level and revive all characters and restore health and power to full, once per level, with no penalty!
