Grimrock

One of the four works but i don't remember which.
Test them all and it should work.

Thanks.

It was the first one.

I have just finished the module.

One of the finest modules around. Very funny. It made me chuckle a lot. Lot of references to gaming lore (eob2, etc).

Very nice.

Hi,
Kind regards,
Joerg

Excellent mod, I am currently playing through, just emerged from a longish stint down below.

I think it should be mentioned in the description that you basically have to have an alchemist in the party. The almost complete absence of crystals makes it mandatory to have the means to heal in case a party member becomes injured. Also, a lot of people want to play HC mode, where you can only save at crystals, and this mod is certainly not for them.

But other than that, really high quality work. You managed to be the first one to publish a large, completed mod, so using the same graphic elements hasn't been done to death yet, so this looks very nice.

I in particular enjoy the dialogues. A good way to give hints and have fun. A bit more joking that I'd prefer (seriously, a joke about breaking the immersion was the only bit in that conversation that did..), but the lines seem to fit my characters really well. I have to mention, the first time the word comes up it's spelled "arcmage". Really made me doubt the quality of the mod when it starts with a typo, fortunately it was just a single typo.

I could complain about the logic in some puzzles but honestly, the annoyances have already vanished from my memory, so no big deals then.

Good work. I hope you do more.

Oh yeah:

Thank you! :)

You don't need a full alchemist though, just a party member with a few points in alchemy is enough (playtested with a fresh party without alchemist class).
The arcmage should be gone soon, I'm currently uploading version 1.01 with some minor bugfixes / a few additional hints and typo corrections. :-P

It's my first Grimrock mod, so it was about learning too and I noticed some other things too that I need to change (thanks for the tip with HC, didn't know that).

Kind regards,
Joerg

A question about the graveyard:

Hi Joerg,

Really enjoying your mod so far. Just to make you aware - I'm playing in solo mode, however all the dialog seems to assume that there are 4 characters in the party So I'll get the following: e.g.

Skelar: This path appears long forgotten.
New Prisoner: It appears to be built upon a much older structure.
New Prisoner: Hmmm.


So it seems to take the default names of the two unused/phantom characters from character creation and assume that they are members of the party ingame.

Not sure if there's any way to get round that but perhaps you could take a look for future versions.
Great mod, some quite nice puzzles, hopefully see more from you in the future.

Cheers.

@ohramallas:
@mrgo0se:
Sorry about the dialogues, the mod was per concept for four chars, I'm currently not planning to change the scripting.
I know there are some bugs related to this (communication when char is dead for example) but that are minor issues. :-P

Could you please upload a screenshot where exactly the trapping bug is happening?

Kind regards,
Joerg

Yes I appreciate the dialog wouldn't make a whole lot of sense for solo play - i.e. character talking to himself

I am currently in the graveyard and will go back and take a screen capture when I have a little time.
