Introduction

I'm DarkRPGgamer, I've played so many games and used so many walk throughs
that I felt its time to give something back to my fellow gamers. So this is my
first stab at a walk-thru, and I just had to do it for this awesome game.
Still on my first play through, but I think that the data I have gathered
will help my fellow Dungeon Makers get the most from their experience.
Keep on the look out for updates as I progress. Enjoy!

Frequently asked Questions

Q. Does the floor rating of the previous floors affect lower levels?

A. There are many ideas on this one, like the upper floor's rating 
   sets a cap on the lower floors, or that the rating affects the 
   quantity of monster that will inhabit your lower levels. I have
   found it is a mixture of both theories. While the rating of say 
   the first floor does not set a cap for say floor 2 as it is possible
   to have floor 1 at a rating of 75 and still have floor 2 at 135
   once you raise floor 1's rating you will notice that floor 2 
   likewise goes up in rating to say 143. while not a significant increase 
   it does add up as you improve each floor the lower floors go up in rating
   too. This is most likely due in part to theory #2 that the higher the rating
   on upper levels the more monsters you will face on lower levels. The old man 
   hints at this around the time you get your first stair kit.

Q. How can I increase my Dungeon floor's rating?

A. If you find that you have hit the proverbial "Brick Wall" with you floor
   stop, step back, look at it, and ask yourself:
	
   1. Does my floor twist and turn a lot or do I have a lot of straight halls?
	Try using T and L sections instead of I and + sections. A good rule
	of thumb is, the harder the dungeon is for you to traverse the higher
	your rating will be.

   2. Do my corridors have wall paper and what kind is it?
	Remember dirt<wood<stone<marble. marble corridors will significantly
	raise your floor's rating, but at 500g a pop you only 5 sections a day
	you may want to fit your floors with stone till you can afford the
      marble.

   3. What kind of Room kits am I using?
	Steer clear of storage rooms once you have completed the thieving goblin
	quest. Guest rooms should be the lowest you settle for but Bedrooms are
	best to start out with and will raise your rating very quickly in large
	numbers. They also do well to attract monsters to your dungeon. Just try
	not to leave any room bare as it does nothing for your rating.
