Dungeon Building

As a keeper, the task of dungeon building is completely up to you. But this isn't a linear task - there is no correct or incorrect way to create a dungeon. Once you work through the first few tutorial missions, take some time and play around with the My Pet Dungeon lands. These lands are like evil sandboxes within which to unleash your minions. Give yourself the time to build up several dungeons as fully as possible and observe their ebb and flow. Send wave after wave of heroes to storm your gates and explore what works well and what fails utterly.

After some time, you'll make your own deductions about how the game works. You will also start to grow into your own style of dungeon building. Let your personality (you do have an evil side, don't you?) show through in your work, since this really is your own personal world, complete with minions, an economy, and a certain quality of life.

In the following sections, you'll find a number of observations and suggestions, but take them as just that: suggestions. The best teacher is experience, and reading through this or any other guide certainly won't replace good, old-fashioned experience.
