[QUOTE="Don Durito, post: 8313669, member: 6687260"] I think a dungeon is a particular way of resolving actions and movement via exploration through space. A forest can be a dungeon: "The trail you are on forks to the left and right, which one do you take?...Ok so you arrive in a small clearing; you can see an Ogre sitting on a log in the middle with a halfling tied to a stick; it appears he is about to roast him over an open fire. Two other trails snake out of this clearing to the North and to the Northwest. What do you do?" And a Dungeon can be not a dungeon, procedurally: "You descend into the crypts below, dusty untouched tombs stretch before you in a mazelike web of corridors, somewhere in the middle of that is the ritual chamber. Tell me, how do you intend to go about finding that ritual chamber?". "Can I make a religion roll to see if this particular catacomb is built on a standard plan? Perhaps I learnt the layout when studying for the priesthood?" "Sure, go ahead. Ok under the expert guidance of the Cleric you arrive outside the central ritual chamber." [/QUOTE]
