puzzle dungeons

Post by wonder-ass »

instead of it being a dungeon where you have to kill enemies to get to the loot, it would be a dungeon where you need to solve riddles and puzzles to get through the doors. could make it so that doing the puzzle wrong spawns enemies or sets off a trap :twisted:
see homo sexuality trending,. do not do that.

Only requires good puzzle generation.

I've always assumed every dungeon added is going to have a new puzzle gimmick, like the keys in bat caves. Hidden doors that have to be inspected to be found. A room of sliding Push/Pull pillars where one needs to end up on a switch. I know that one should be able to be randomly generated, similar to the old Traffic Jam game.
