👉 The Large Circular Dungeon is a high-tech, quantum-themed branch accessible from the Gnomish Mines, exclusive to GnollHack.
Location: Accessible via a magic portal located 1 to 3 levels below Mine Town (between levels 4 and 8 of the Gnomish Mines, or absolute depth 6 to 13). The branch consists of 2 levels.
It features unique mechanics, high-tech loot, and dangerous futuristic enemies.
Characteristics
- Levels: Consists of two levels: the Quantum Tunnel (level 1) and the Quantum Core (level 2).
- Layout: The dungeon is highly structured and heavily utilizes circular and high-tech motifs, contrasting sharply with the medieval fantasy setting of the rest of the game.
- Inhabitants: Populated by quantum mechanics, scientists, and high-tech robotic or cybernetic enemies.
Special Qualities
The Large Circular Dungeon contains significant amounts of modern/futuristic loot, including energy weapons, advanced armor, and rare components. However, the enemies here hit with unfamiliar damage types (like energy or radiation) that standard medieval armor may struggle to resist.
