| The Well |
Goals Reach level 100 of the well, and gather 10000 gold. (You can do these in either order.) |
Exploring the level Chance of monsters, treasure: The chance that when exploring, you will encounter a monster or some treasure. These go down as you stay on the same level and find stuff, but go up if you leave. Monsters are always looked for first! |
Statistics Health: How much damage you can take from losing an encounter with a strength based monster. The number on the left is your current health, the number on the right is your maximum. If your current health would drop below 1, you instead take turns in shock. This means that the number of turns you use to finish the game increases. You may also take turns in shock if you take large amounts of damage from a monster in one blow. Strength: When you encounter a strength based monster, you compare your strength to theirs. You each also add a random number from 1 to 6. Who ever has the higher total wins. Ties are won by the player. Charisma: Like strength, only for charisma based monsters. And you each add a random number from 1 to 8 when comparing. Experience: When this gets to 1000, you get a skill point, and this is reset to 0. Skill Points: How many points you have to increase your skills. Gold: Important for winning the game, and sometimes useful for bribing certain monsters. |

Go up: Go up 1 level in the well. Rest: If you are below your max health (3/5, etc), use this to recover health. Increase Strength: You get a point of strength. Increase Charisma: You get a point of charisma. Increase Health: You get 2 to 4 points of health. |
Magical Items You will find magical items during your trip. Each item has unique powers. Some items are permanent, while others last until you use them, or if they are ethereal, last a random amount of time and then fade away. |
Tips 1: Don't go down into the well too fast, the monsters will be too powerful for you to handle. Go down when you think you are even or ahead of the monsters on your current level. 2: You can't die in this game, but if you are low on health, you can lose turns! So remember to rest if your health is low. |
