Game demands player race or quits (q or EOF). A valid race shortform will start game with that race.
Player can input commands, and at each command the board is redrawn:
- no, so, ea, we, ne, nw, se, sw: to move player one block in cardinal direction
- u : uses the potion in direction
- a : attacks in direction if an enemy is there
- s, d, v, g, t: specifies the race the player wishes to be when starting a game
- f: stops enemies from moving until reentered
- r: restarts the game, all states/inventory/gold/race are reset
- q: quit and exit the game
Play will continue as specified until:
- player restarts
- player reaches end of floor 5 (end of dungeon)
- player dies
- player quits
Player represented by ‘@’.

Other than Dragons, enemies move randomly 1 tile at a time (to empty tiles). Enemies can not leave their birth room. Movement is done starting at leftmost enemy in a row.
If a human is within a 1 block radius of an enemy, it will attack. (Merchants only if angered).

Consists of gold in certain piles:
- Null (value 0)
- Small (value 1)
- Normal (value 2)
- Merchant (value 4)
- Dragon hoard (value 6)
Dragon hoard protected by a dragon and can only be picked up once dragon is slain.
Gold is denoted on map with a G.
Gold dropped by merchant (4) or human (2x2) are only picked up after player walks over.
Five chambers. Player spawns randomly but never in the chamber with the stairs going down to the next level.
Each floor has:
- 1 stairway ‘\’ going down. Room is random.
- 10 potions with each type chosen at random, random floor tiles in rooms.
- 10 piles of gold per floor at random floor tiles in rooms, varying spawn rates.
- 20 enemies per floor not including dragons, chances of enemies are at random floor tiles in rooms vary.
When player moves onto a stairway, the next level is generated.
All enemies except Merchant and Dragon are hostile. Hostile enemies will attempt to attack the player when they are within a 1 block radius, before player can attack.
Dragon will attack only if player is in a 1 block radius of the dragon hoard. Merchants attack back if attacked and other merchants will become hostile.
If player is not within radius, enemies resume random movement.
We decided that typing in commands for movement and actions was far too inconvenient for users. As such, we decided to implement keyboard controls using getch, removing the need to press “enter” every time the user wants to perform an action in-game. Looking into various methods for keybinding, we initially opted to use the ncurses library; however, this proved to be incompatible with our method of rendering the map using cout. As such, we used a custom getch function using getchar and termios to turn echo off.
