Fail condition/game over?

[Songbird]

The first 3 dungeons went really poorly and I doubt that will change anytime soon. I don't really wanna waste my time with a save that is doomed, so my question is, can I just throw heroes at the Dungeon infinitely or will I lose at some point because I ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up too much?

(like in XCOM where you lose if you get killed all the time and the countries panic and withdraw blabla)

Infinite free adventurers say: go for it! Also, no time limit or anything else.

Don't lose hope, keep that stress under control, keep sending people to their dea... er... destiny. ;)

So there are comeback mechanics if lets say I can't afford food/torches anymore?

It seems that a failstate is yet to be implemented, there seems to be nothing at this point preventing you from hiring four utter rubes, throwing them into the easiest dungeon you can find, make sure at least one lives long enough to flee with a bit of loot, fire the survivors, hire a new bunch and continue that process until you´re on your feet again.

That said, don´t get too comfortable doing this, I´m betting my red rubber nose there will eventually be a way to lose the game.

Eventually there may be or not a way to lose the game. Currently? Nope. Endless gameplay.

You can do runs with level 0 adventurers that have no provisions of any kind (and going in the dark also has extra loot). Get in, get some loot and get out as soon as stress becomes an issue (or health). If lucky, you get to finish the exploration and get the reward. Once back in the town, fire the guys and hire new ones. Rinse and repeat until you have saved some money.
