TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Doctor. The daily five minute skill devotion for everyone who's simply dotting about Alexa. Hey guys Robin here today we are looking at the, oh by the way, 2400? How on earth did that happen?

Anyway we're still here having to revisit a lot of skills but nonetheless we are still up and running so today we are going to visit the second in a list of three skills by those five guys that we looked at yesterday in Deep Space Dice, massively involved role play game and today is no exception as well. It's based on a board game called the dungeon game I think. I can't remember it said in the about thing but we're not going to ask for the about thing. We are going to ask for the rules that we did yesterday about having learned from yesterday's mistake where we never actually got to the game.

I realized that you can ask for a new game to start the game at any time instead of just saying next, next, next, a million times throughout the tutorial so we'll get a bit of the flavour asking for the tutorial and then we'll start a game to give you an idea what it's all about. So yeah instead of Deep Space we're now in a fetid dungeon Alexa open dungeon role game. Welcome to dungeon role. To begin saying new game.

To learn how to play, say rules. To check your high scores, say high scores. Say help at any point during the game if you need help. Say about for more information about the game.

Rules. The dungeon lies before you. You've assembled your party of hearty adventurers and have a few tricks up your sleeve. How far will you go to see glory and fame?

Will you risk losing everything? In dungeon role your goal is to collect the most experienced points by defeating monsters, battling the dragon and a massing treasure. Before we start with the rules, do you want to go through the step by step guide? If you haven't played dungeon role before, I recommend saying yes.

Otherwise, say no to listen to a shorter game overview. Yes. Great. Don't worry, this won't take long.

You can say next to proceed to the next step, back to go back to the previous step and repeat if you want me to repeat the current rule. Say new game at any time to start a new game. Now, say next to continue. Next.

The game consists of three dungeon delves. The following three things happen when you start a delve. One, I roll seven party dice to form your party for the delve. Two, your hero is refreshed and ready to use the ultimate ability.

Three, I roll one dungeon die to populate the dungeon. Say next to continue. Next. When I roll dungeon dice, one of the results can be a dragon.

Anytime a dragon face is rolled on a dungeon die, it moves to the dragon's lair where it remains until you have defeated the dragon. All the delve is over. Dice in the dragon's lair may not be re-rolled by scrolls or abilities. Say next to continue.

Next. A dungeon delve is divided into four phases. One, monster phase. Two, loot phase.

Three, dragon phase. Four, regroup phase. Say next to continue. Next.

Regrouping the new game to hell. Monster phase. You need to use your companions to attack goblins, skeletons, or ooze monsters. When you use a party member to do an action, that member is moved to the graveyard and then the effects are resolved.

If you are unable to defeat the monsters, you need to flee and complete your delve without earning any experience points. The following actions can be performed in any order in this phase. One, attack monsters. Start a game.

Two, use hero abilities. Three, use a scroll. Say next to continue. New game.

Do you want to play with a random hero? Yes. You selected the Viking. Your party consists of five champions.

Get ready for your first dungeon delve. The first level in the dungeon has one ooze. You are in the monster phase. Okay.

Attack the ooze to continue. Attack. Which companion do you want to use to attack? Help.

You are in the monster phase and you need to attack monsters to defeat them. Valid commands in this phase are the following. One, attack. For example, say fight to attack goblin.

A single fighter can defeat all goblins. A single mage can defeat all oozes. A single cleric defeats all skeletons. And a champion defeats all monsters of a selected type.

Two, use scroll. Scrolls let you re-roll any party or dungeon dice. Three, use item. Use a treasure item from your inventory.

I'm sorry guys, I'm going to stop at this. Four, flee. If you cannot pass this phase and you to flee and end the delve. Five, specialty.

Get information about how you can use your hero's specialty. Six, ultimate ability. Get information about how you can use your ultimate ability. Seven, party status.

Get information about your party. Eight, dungeon status. Get information about the current state of the dungeon. Nine, inventory.

Get information about your inventory. Ten, item information. Get information about a specific treasure item. So.

Thank you for playing dungeon roll. If you enjoyed playing it, you should try deep space dice. Okay, I'm sure it's just me. I'm sure this makes sense to people that are actually paying attention or have played it at least once or twice.

There is a, there's at least one sound effect, a dice roll. We didn't actually get that far. But anyway, hmm. I don't know what to say.

Dungeon roll game. If that sounds like your thing, give it a go. Thanks guys. And we'll speak in tomorrow.
