This is just a few notes I’ve gathered regarding the Alpha release of the game.
Wstęp
The game is still under development but has a lot of potential. I hope this helps to generate a little bit of curiosity and also provides some basis clarification of how the game operates without any strong guidance from the creators so far. There is a players handbook, jednakże. This fills some gaps.
I’ll try and add things as I figure them out myself.
I had the good fortune to play a few rounds with the one of the two designers one evening and this is where a lot of fog was lifted. Capacitive Touch buttons ROCK!
Cokolwiek robisz, do NOT let Paul M. play with you. He’ll be hiding in the corner as a CLERIC casting no spells. Everyone will die a horrible death!

– Don’t delay, you give the DM to mount a counter offensive
– Don’t go too quickly, you might get cornered or find a trap the hard way!

GM Tips
– VILE players have desecrated your quiet sanctuary/dungeon. Get ’em!
– The DM can select one of the two randomly chosen maps for the players for each level (there are nine different themes)
– Move dungeon defenders where you want them to be when the violent players appear
– Don’t allow the evil Elf to shoot them early. Mean Players!
– Players can also hit innocent defenders through walls. Pure Evil.
– Place Spawn cards quickly to start adding more dungeon defenders
– MOVE the dungeon defenders using the behavior options to allow more to defend
– REMEMBER to set them back to AUTO or they will just stand there defenseless to the evil players
– If players delay, that’s more defenders to rally to the defense
– SPAWN cards will put Dungeon Defenders in your HAND. Place them on SPAWNS and when green square lights up, pull the TRIGGER
