The Core Loop

1. Walk to the edge of your chunk (the small tile area you're standing on)
2. A Dice Roller UI appears — you have 3 dice slots: Terrain (d20), Rarity (d20), Filter (d4)
3. Press E to roll — the result determines what generates next to you
4. Explore the new chunk: fight enemies, collect resources
5. Craft better dice with resources you find (press C)
6. Repeat — push further from spawn, face tougher enemies

What the Dice Do

• Terrain roll (d20): determines the biome (1 = Shadowfell, 4-5 = Forest, 20 = Infernal)
• Rarity roll (d20): determines loot quality and enemy density
• Filter roll (d4): modifies the template variant
• Nat 20: Legendary chest with bonus loot
• Nat 1: Enemy horde — survive if you can

Ring System

The further you go from spawn (0,0), the higher the ring. Enemies get stronger per ring. The HUD shows your current ring. Ring 0-1 is always safe (forest, no enemies).

Crafting

Press C to open crafting. Combine materials to forge new dice:

• Wood, Stone, Iron, Herb, Crystal — collected from chunks
• Better dice = better control over what you generate

Attributes

Every 5 kills = level up = 1 attribute point. Press L to allocate:

• Luck — bonus on rarity rolls
• Arcana — bonus on terrain rolls
• Survival — more HP
• Perception — better detection

Decay System

Chunks you don't visit degrade over time:

• Fresh → Worn → Decaying → Corrupted
• Corrupted chunks spawn strong enemies and lose their loot
• Visit a chunk to reset its decay
• Place a Totem (press T, costs 1 die) to permanently protect a chunk

Tips

• You start with basic d20s — they're weak but free to craft
• Rerolling a single die costs 3 crystals (click the die in the roller)
• Check the minimap (top-right) — darker chunks are decaying
• Don't ignore chunks behind you — decay is real
• Bosses appear every 5 chunks explored — they hit hard but drop extra loot
