Description
Do NOT create a party to play this mod.

Mod, scripting, music and plot by Marco Mastropaolo (aka Xanathar)

Playtesting by Diarmuid (thank you so much!)

Most assets used in this mod comes from the wonderful modding community at www.grimrock.net.

Among them I thank Nystul, Asteroth, Phitt, Daniv and Merethif for the wallsets and many models.
Kuningas, Leki and Pandafox for the monsters. JohnWordsworth for the plaques and above all the modding toolkit.
Mahric and MsyBlade for the awesome journal.
Diarmuid, Germanny, Skuggasvein, Scorp29, AdrTru, Grimfan, Grimwold, Blichew, SpiderFighter, JKos, Batty, Crisman, and many others I unintentionally forgot to mention (sorry!) for various models, scripts, alcoves and helpful hints!

Thanks to AH for making the game in the first place and to Lorena and Sara for giving me the time to create this.

Got it. Tbh what I hate (in hindsight, see later) is the fact that some secrets (not just here, it includes a few in the real game, most mods, other crawlers) are just "random odd walls" which require the tedious "hidden button hiding" (e.g. bumping into walls in EOB to see if there is any fake wall). That is, imho, the design antipattern to break.
I probably did this a few (maybe many? I don't remember) times in TSG and yeah, that's lazy and bad, agree.

Since it adds a ton more walls, and secret finding can already be pretty tedious at times on straight aways through the whole dungeon, needing to look at each individual wall is something I hate.

(btw - in retrospect I hate having done the dreams thing - they just suck, let's be honest. Oh well, lesson learned)

I'm definitely not looking at it much anymore - sorry :) - but I think the exp necklace you are talking about is the one in the very north. If that's so, the secret can be accessed from the level below.
There is a secret room north of the entrance of the temple area that has a Ogre inside. The area has an empty corridor where a secret button is locate and that opens a set of stairs which brings you on the other side of that exp necklace. IIRC of course.

Btw - I'm curious about what you hate about the maze design. Not that it's perfect and there are definitely areas that I also dislike in retrospect (specially: like most hobby projects, it's more refined at the start and becomes less and less refined going through) but.. yeah I'm curious :)

Since I liked to look for secrets, I personally hate the maze design for most areas. I just stopped caring about secrets near the end of the last 2 mazes.

The create food crashes my game, which sucks, but there was plenty about anyway.

Liked everything around the mod, was pretty great when it started, despite just kind of wandering around looking at stuff. There is one thing I didn't get to. There was a area in the mines with the exp necklace laying on the ground. Just never got over there and I think I found the key to the door it was next to. If you're still looking at these, how does one get over to that area past the mine cart?

There were some parts that I genuinely got stuck on that I'm not certain if there was anything to really work off of to figure it out. Sometimes I'd get hints to things I already did, instead of ones of parts that were forgotten. Example, while I did remember to do it later, I didn't put the torches out, only cleared the area. The dream came and went, probably like an hour later, I come back after remembering, but got hints for dreaming for the goggle puzzle. Doesn't exactly help me out.

The marked stones, whatever, had no idea they had warping abilities. I might have missed the hint that mentions this, but it never occurred to me to touch them to the shrines. The flavor text on them doesn't say anything of the sort and that was one of the last parts I was stuck on for forward progression. After that it was fine.

Every time it wants me to sleep for a dream I walk, pull the chain to go down the hallway and always freezes up. Only thing I can do is hit the esc key and then goes to desktop.

The key to the chest is in the toilet nearby (with a puzzle to collect it).
