I haven't touched this game since clowns were implemented. I absolutely refuse to do anything even if there's the 0.0001% chance that it'll get griefed. Why on earth did they think a mob made to grief players would be fun. If people wanted that, they'd just play multiplayer.

I want my giant, mapwide constructions to be left alone thank you very much. The last thing I need is a random clown blowing up the support of a cathedral ceiling in which I have no way to reach.

Don't activate hardmode. If you're just in it for building, then Hardmode won't give you anything new except Pearlstone, Pearlsand and Ebonsand. And since sand is really shitty for building, really only Pearlstone.

Pearlsand is needed to make pearlbricks.

Went in the sewers to look for a khajiit but found a fanatic instead, a well equipped one at that.

Morrowind

Wrong Canalworks Adhiranirr is in the St.Olms/Delyn's.

Turn 0:

Terkiey:

Terkiey is standing at the north entrance, and enters the Catacombs, which are faintly lit by small torches on the walls.

The tunnels leads south and east.

Edio:

Edio is standing at the eastern entrance, and enters the Catacombs, which are faintly lit by small torches on the walls.

He is able to go to west and south.

Nora:

Nora is standing at the southern entrance, and enters the Catacombs, which are faintly lit by small torches on the walls.

The tunnels lead to north and west.

Lebuarts:

Lebuarts is standing at the western entrance, and enters the Catacombs, which are faintly lit by small torches on the walls.

Tunnels lead to north and east, but standing in the way there's a vicious snake hissing at the adventurer!

Not really. There are four entrances to the Catacombs and all have to be taken.

YES!
THANKS!
FUCKING THANKS YOU MAN!

Aww, man. I played this game non-stop when I was a kid. If you like this game try Zeus: Master of Olympus (especially this) and Caesar III too!

And when you're done with base campaigns and stuff, I recommend checking out this repository of maps and missions.

Here it lies... one of the entrances to the Great Catacombs.

People say that Catacombs are the Door to the world of Gods.

Others, that it's trial of Gods, so they can find a man worthy of their power.

And others...

...others say that it is just a large dungeon filled with gold and gems!

Welcome to the Kave Rayder!
In this game, you're a simple adventurer!

Your main tasks are:
A) Get as much trinkets and gold as possible.
B) Find and steal the Diamond of Gods.
C) Actually survive looting the Catacombs!

But it won't be so easy...

To make place in your backpack, you put away most of your equipment except a small medpack.
You keep your iron whip at your belt though! And a hat! What's an adventurer without a hat with a lit candle on top of it?

The whip deals mere 1 damage, but, with certain high stat...

An Adventurer has 4 lifes, and said medpack can heal up to 2 lifes.

Why you need them lifes, you ask.

Oh, it's simple! The Great Catacombs are filled with deadly traps and vicious monsters.

And of course you can meet other adventurers! That might go wrong on many levels, given it's the forumites~

Pits with sharp spikes that you have to jump across, wild vipers and walking corpses of previous adventurers...

Trapped chests, boulders rolling after you...

And some people are whispering the tales about dreaded Giant Cave Spider...

Stats!

There are four stats in Kave Rayder: Strength, Acrobatics, Intelligence, and Luck.

I'm not going to tell what they do so you have to guess :3

Each of them stats can have value of 1, 2 and 3.

Every Adventurer starts with 1 in every stat and can raise 2 stats by one point.
There are rumors about fountains or altars or something that's supposed to raise your stats, though...

Retreat!

There's no shame in saying 'that's enough' and running away.

In this case, you need to reach any of four entrances, not necessarily the one through which you entered.
The amount of 'Gold' you earn is written down to high-score table at the moment in which you leave the Catacombs.
But if you die at any moment of looting, amount of Gold you managed to get is halved in terms of points!
Oh, and The Diamond of Gods counts only if you make it alive!

Treasures and their points value:
Few old coins: +5 gold
Small gem: +10 gold
Copper jewellery: +15 gold
Copper idol: +25 gold
Silver jewellery: +40 gold
Medium gem: +60 gold
Pile of old coins: +80 gold
Silver idol: +110 gold
Gold jewellery: +150 gold
Large gem: +250 gold
Gold idol: +400 gold
'Crystal of Prophets': +200 gold
'Diamond of the Gods': +1500 gold

PS: The game is fast-paced and thus it is possible that several turns can happen through a day. Quite active players more than appreciated!

PM'd him yesterday and no response, so yeah, we have to wait~
