By making it part of the demo, and presumably the first real scenario as well, you get the fluff out of the way quickly while also giving players the option to skip it when they buy the full game. So smart! (Image credit: thekingofgrabs.com/2022/01/28/d...) 2/2

However, I have now committed to finishing the story so that I can take the next set of games at my own pace. I will eventually get around to beating X, XII, XIII, XV, and XVI, but it might take a while. Same with the subsequent posts. Will be processing my thoughts on if it holds up soon.

Third time's the charm! Merry Xmas!

Of all the things, that VR headset is what I'm most interested in as I still have a wired HTC Vive gathering dust in my loft. The controller is a close second, but I have plenty of controllers that are more comfortable in my hands. I also have the OG Steam controller if I really want a haptic mouse.

In the end, we had our sorcerer/warlock use a cantrip do the first two and the bard/Fighter use healing word and that did the trick.

The best you can figure out is the actual solution. We cast fire, then ice, then a healing spell and it unlocked a door. On the surface, not a hard puzzle I'd say, but coming after that prime number puzzle and two fights, there's a tendency to overthink and as such, it took us ages to figure out! 🤣

The capitalised letters did have something to do with it.

The dungeon had only dead ends aside from a couple of killed monsters and the party comp was a level 5 sorcerer/warlock, an oath of vengeance Paladin, a Druid, and a Bard/Fighter.

For context, the previous puzzle was written on a coffin. "The Prime Evils are rising, the world is falling to darkness, the path to salvation is revealed in the light." There were candles lit around the room, fixed into place.

Of. Of the reason they exist. Autocorrect needs to stop.
