I’d like to thank my good friend Tyruswoo for making some gameplay videos of Stories from Danger’s Den! These videos were made in 2021 shortly after the game’s Alpha 1 release. (At the time, the game was called Tales from Danger’s Den; I’ve since changed its name.)

Stories generated in Alpha 1 were bare-bones: one town, one quest, and one dungeon with a pre-defined set of treasure. Only two playable classes were available: Paladin and Enchanter. Total playtime per story was about 1 hour.

Here’s another gameplay video from Tyruswoo: a different story and world, also from Alpha 1.

Thanks for watching!

Since these videos, Stories from Danger’s Den has come to offer much more: each story has main quest, about two supporting quests, and sometimes a trade offer or two, 1 or 2 towns, and roughly 3 dungeons. The hero may be one of seven playable classes, and often an ally helps out. Dungeon treasure varies randomly and is compatible with the character classes of the party. Play time per story still sits at 1 to 2 hours, even as there are more things to do.

I have big plans yet ahead. At the time of this writing, I’m preparing quests to involve a greater variety of dungeons, with coordinated sets of monsters and treasure. And, as you may guess: more of everything! I’m going to keep adding more playable classes, more types of monsters, more world biomes and styles of cities, and more kinds of quests.
