Gameplay Mode

Modern Ports Only

There are two toggles in the modern user interface that control in what mode you will play your game:

  1. Classic Mode toggle
    • Off: Character resurrects at the starting altar or another checkpoint upon dying
    • On: Character dies permanently
  2. Casual Mode toggle
    • Off: Saved games are deleted upon loading (cannot load saved games multiple times)
    • On: Saved games are not deleted upon loading (can load saved games multiple times)

Thus, there are four different gameplay modes in the modern version of the game. They are named as follows:

Mode Letter Classic Mode Toggle Casual Mode Toggle
Modern Mode M Off Off
Classic Mode – On Off
Casual Mode C Off On
Casual-Classic Mode
(Reloadable Mode)
R On On

Additionally, one can also activate Wizard Mode (W) for debugging purposes.
