One More Dungeon
Hints and Tips:
---------------
Submitted by: David K.
-= Which One More Dungeon =-
This page covers the 2015 first-person dungeon crawler by Stately Snail. A separate
Windows platform game by HTX Games uses the same title. Its controls, routes, and
item rules do not apply here.
-= Win the floor before spending everything =-
Each generated floor hides a guardian and a locked exit. Explore enough of the map to
locate both, but preserve health, crystals, and mind for the guardian. After the key
drops, follow the purple exit marker instead of clearing every remaining dead end.
-= Use map colors as a resource filter =-
Green marks unopened doors, purple marks the exit, and brown marks crates. Blue
points can indicate altars, chests, portals, towers, or the recycler. Take a blue
detour while supplies are healthy; skip the backtrack when the guardian fight matters
more.
-= Separate health, crystal, and mind costs =-
Health keeps the run alive, colored crystals power staff attacks, and mind powers
artifacts. Low mind can distort the screen and create false threats. Before using an
artifact, decide how much mind must remain for navigation and the next guardian.
-= Open with a staff and finish with melee =-
Staff attacks work from range but consume colored crystals. Melee weapons do not
spend that ammunition, but they expose you to contact damage. Use a staff to weaken a
dangerous group, then switch to melee when the room is controlled.
-= Match the weapon family to the opening =-
Daggers and swords recover quickly after an attack. Axes and spears commit longer,
but their reach or knockback can keep a corridor under control. Use a faster family
while learning an enemy, then change only when the slower weapon solves a clear
spacing problem.
-= Break crates with melee =-
Crates can hold crystals, coins, or potions, but they can also release a hostile rat.
Break them with melee so the container does not consume staff ammunition. Stand far
enough back to react if the crate is not safe.
-= Turn obsolete gear into crystals =-
The recycler converts unwanted equipment into crystals. Compare a new item with the
weapon, staff, amulet, and rings already equipped. Recycle dead inventory before
carrying gear that has no role in the run.
-= Enter a portal with an exit plan =-
A portal leads to a separate challenge area and can reward an artifact. The portal is
a one-use commitment, and enemies can follow you through it. Enter only after
clearing nearby threats, then collect the reward before leaving the challenge.
-= Stop sustained artifacts after the job =-
Several artifacts drain mind while they remain active. Use Crystal Ball or Ruby Eye
only long enough to reveal the needed route or enemy position, then switch the effect
off. Saving a few seconds is not worth entering the guardian room with unstable
vision.
-= Identify the potion before the emergency =-
Health and regeneration potions solve different problems, while poison and antidote
can reverse each other. Do not test an unknown potion in front of a guardian. Use it
in a cleared room with enough health to survive a harmful result.
-= Use mutators to isolate one lesson =-
Mutators change the next run before it begins. Start with a modifier that improves
survival or lowers enemy pressure while learning map reading and crystal discipline.
Add harder conditions only after the same route decision works without the safety
modifier.
Secrets:
--------
-= Secret-door texture checks =-
Early secret doors can look darker or lack the surrounding cobweb detail. Later areas
can use a wall button or a red wall cue. Check suspicious wall sections after a room
is safe; do not search while an enemy still controls the corridor.
-= Dark Coin gamble =-
Dark Coin can either restore health or reduce it to a critical state. Use it only
when the current health total is already low enough that the possible loss is
acceptable. Never test it immediately before a guardian without another recovery
option.
Solutions:
----------
-= Compact route - First full clear =-
1. Break nearby crates with melee and save colored crystals for the first dangerous
enemy group.
2. Read the map until the guardian route and purple exit are both known.
3. Take blue-map detours only when health, crystals, and mind can still cover the
guardian fight.
4. Use staff attacks for safe damage, then finish with melee when crystal reserves
are low.
5. Collect the exit key and leave through the purple marker instead of spending
supplies on empty branches.
6. On the final approach, activate the obelisks only after clearing the enemies
around each interaction point.
-= Resource recovery loop =-
1. Stop using the staff when the room contains only a safe melee target.
2. Break unopened crates with melee and collect crystals or potions before moving
deeper.
3. Compare new equipment immediately and send obsolete pieces to the recycler.
4. Deactivate any sustained artifact before returning to the main route.
5. Abandon optional rooms when the recovered supply is already enough to finish the
floor.
-= Safe portal artifact test =-
1. Clear the room around the portal and verify that no enemy is following.
2. Enter with enough health and mind to handle the challenge without depending on an
unknown reward.
3. Collect the artifact and read its effect before activating it.
4. Test a sustained effect briefly, deactivate it, and leave enough mind for the next
guardian.
