We recommend new players queue into this mode and get to grips with combat first, either solo or with friends. The Howling Crypts : Normal is the regular dungeon map, where teams of 1-3 players compete for loot and the chance to escape.The loot is better than the first level of Howling Crypts on Normal difficulty, but it's easier for other players to spot you and move towards you, so it's recommended you play with a full team and choose a more mobile class.


This was intitially released as Floor 0 of the standard map where players would spawn upon entering, but has since been changed to a single layer dungeon for the purposes of playtesting.

I cannot believe that they made this deadline despite all of the legal issues surrounding the studio. "This is just the best fucking thing in the world.

But the good news is that by all reports it works, and instead of being irritated by the extra work involved, fans are throwing kudos to Ironmace for powering through it. It's definitely more of a hassle than a simple Steam install, and the download speeds are a little slow right now because of the relatively small number of people seeding the torrent. (The studio had originally said that announcements would also be made on its Discord server, but "due to Discord's policy of not allowing links to torrents," the Twitter account will be it.) Ironmace also said that all future announcements regarding this playtest will be made on the official IronmaceGames Twitter account. "All future patches will also be distributed in this manner, and you should only get the links from our official DIscord announcement channel." "Do not get the torrent from any other sources, as we cannot guarantee the integrity of any other links!" Ironmace said in an all-caps warning. You also need to be a little careful about what you download and where you download it from, because there's a lot of crapola floating around on there.
