Game Play
Players create characters and guide them through numerous levels of a dungeon in search of monsters and treasure. The primary objective is to find three “Runes of Zot”, the “Orb of Zot” and then escape the dungeon alive. The dungeons are procedural so they are different with each play through. The dungeons themselves explore the different realms of Zot. These include Elven Halls, Orchish Mines, the Abyss and more. Each dungeon contains 15 Runes of Zot and 1 Orb of Zot. These items are located at random points usually at the end of the branches of the dungeon. Once a player collects three runes and the orb they can attempt to escape from the dungeon.
Like your typical RPG, player characters earn experience points by defeating monsters and finding treasure. This experience will eventually lead to player characters leveling up which in turn allows them to upgrade/enhance their skills and abilities. During character creation, players will determine their character’s background. There are 24 different background choice available to players and include traditional character classes such as Fighters, Wizards, Assassins and more. These background choices determine the players starting skills and equipment available to them, but as they earn experience and level up, they are free to pursue any skills available.
