__NOTOC__
<big>'''Welcome to the ''Desktop Dungeons'' Wiki!'''</big>

[[File:Beta gameplay.png|right|thumb|350px|''Beta version of Desktop Dungeons'']]

If you've never played a roguelike before, prepare to die, because you will! A lot! ''Desktop Dungeons'' was designed as a quick 5-15 minute mini-roguelike experience for you to enjoy without having to lose yourself for hours in the more complex roguelikes such as ''[[Wikipedia:Linley's Dungeon Crawl|Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup]]''. (''DD'' is also heavily inspired by ''DCSS''.)

In the coming weeks this will be established as the #1 source for information about the PC game ''Desktop Dungeons''. Registration is easier than most forums; feel free to contribute [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susan_LimSusan Lim] if you spot any inaccurate information.

Gods

2012-01-31T09:46:13Z

TwinBladeWarrior:

Gods work similarly to other roguelike games, each giving themed bonuses and penalties.

No class begins with a religion, and must instead find an altar. Each dungeon has three altars, each assigned to a random unique god.
Stepping on the altar will display a brief flavor text description, and the option to begin worship if you have not selected one yet.
Please note that due to the recent changes to how gods work, this page is very much a WIP.

__TOC__

===Summary===

Gods work much the same way in the beta version, but all the gods that are implemented have their boons and piety actions changed up, making them in some cases just slightly different (e.g. Tikki Tooki) and in others encouraging an almost entirely different playstyle than before (e.g. Mystera Annur). Some boons can even be used more than once, ''usually'' with an increased Piety cost each time; they will be marked Repeat on the chart below, usually with a cost of "X + Y*n Piety" (n being the number of times the boon has already been used).

In addition, no altars will spawn at the beginning of the game. Occasionally, the player will find a subdungeon with a particular challenge; this challenge, when conquered, will convert the player to the god they just discovered (even if they were already worshipping another one) and allow this god's altars to spawn in any dungeon. Generally, 3 altars will spawn per dungeon (assuming at least 3 gods have been discovered).

Two other major changes have occurred to the way altars work. First is Desecration: If worshipping a god, you can smash up another god's altar to gain 25 piety and immunity from the next "major punishment" you would receive; in turn, however, the god whose altar you desecrated will punish you as if you had been a follower but reached 0 piety. Second, you can convert from any god to any other god, at any time, at the cost of half your piety (you must have at least 50 piety to do so). The exception is, naturally, if you destroyed an altar, in which case you can't damn well worship there, can you? Sometimes you can really be quite daft.

Gods

2012-01-21T20:37:16Z

TwinBladeWarrior: Minor edit to GG, need to check piety rewards.

Gods work similarly to other roguelike games, each giving themed bonuses and penalties.

No class begins with a religion, and must instead find an altar. Each dungeon has three altars, each assigned to a random unique god.
Stepping on the altar will display a brief flavor text description, and the option to begin worship if you have not selected one yet.
Please note that due to the recent changes to how gods work, this page is very much a WIP.

__TOC__

===Summary===

Gods work much the same way in the beta version, but all the gods that are implemented have their boons and piety actions changed up, making them in some cases just slightly different (e.g. Tikki Tooki) and in others encouraging an almost entirely different playstyle than before (e.g. Mystera Annur). Some boons can even be used more than once, ''usually'' with an increased Piety cost each time; they will be marked Repeat on the chart below, usually with a cost of "X + Y*n Piety" (n being the number of times the boon has already been used).

In addition, no altars will spawn at the beginning of the game. Occasionally, the player will find a subdungeon with a particular challenge; this challenge, when conquered, will convert the player to the god they just discovered (even if they were already worshipping another one) and allow this god's altars to spawn in any dungeon. Generally, 3 altars will spawn per dungeon (assuming at least 3 gods have been discovered).

Two other major changes have occurred to the way altars work. First is Desecration: If worshipping a god, you can smash up another god's altar to gain 25 piety and immunity from the next "major punishment" you would receive; in turn, however, the god whose altar you desecrated will punish you as if you had been a follower but reached 0 piety. Second, you can convert from any god to any other god, at any time, at the cost of half your piety (you must have at least 50 piety to do so). The exception is, naturally, if you destroyed an altar, in which case you can't damn well worship there, can you? Sometimes you can really be quite daft.
