How do I win?

[Melaron]

I have the sailboat, 32k+ rep, tons of treasure in my backpack, lots of 100% skills, and I can't use the sailboat.

I get some kind of message like "An unknown force prevents you from leaving without all the pieces of treasure."

I want to win this game so I can start a new one, too much work in this game to leave it behind. I don't currently own any treasure maps. Most of the above ground map is explored.

Do I need to explore the entire map/underground? Is there a certain number of gold items you need?

Getting frustrated and want to win & start new!

You need one of each type of the treasures

[Melaron]

Must be a problem then. I have all 4 treasure types. Several of each. Coins, chalice, sword, and ring.

Missing one type!

Seems to be me it would better if players were able to win the game, maybe take a penalty to score for finishing the game without your required magical mystery treasures.

I've a big fortress built, and I've scoured the lands uppers and lowers.

At this point, I can't win the game, unless the game decides to give me a mystery treasure. The game is essentially holding me hostage. Will RNG spawn that mystery treasure for me? No? Just another sword.

This has all but ruined the game for me. I wanted to win and start a new game. Now there is no interest to start a new game, as I can't even win the game that I pumped days upon days into.

Small spoiler warning,






The last treasure will need extreme levels of malignity.

The ending of the game is essentially an easter egg (currently). The ways to trigger it change from version to version while we develop more lore and more progression towards the "end goal". It's cryptic and secret and only hinted at to give players at least some goal while they enjoy the end-game (something that also changes version to version).

There is no RNG involved in getting the last treasure, but there definitely is a challenge. I can provide more hints/spoilers if needed.

To quote the webcomic Something Positive: Yes. Give to us the spoilers.

Okay cool, I kind of surmised needing to leap into the belly of the beast for the last bit of treasure. I just wasn't sure, because I've been game-breakingly unlucky with other games in the past.
