DUNGEON LORDS: A Kingdom Cracked.
Author: GARR.
This is an in-depth walkthrough of the main quest with several of the side
quests either describedor mentioned.
The game starts in a forested glade northeast of Fargrove.
Talk to Simon the messenger on everything and receive a temple summons. East of
Simon is achest behind a small piece of wall. Quite a bit farther east are two
shacks guarded by severalgoblins. In each shack is a chest. Go back to Simon,
and west of him is a sign pointing the way toFargrove. Travel south to the
north gate of Fargrove. Talk on all options, then turn around. Agoblin comes
out of the bushes and offers to show you a secret entrance. It's an ambush of
moregoblins.
Enter the tunnel and pull a wall lever, then enter the sewers. When you go
forward, somepoisonous slimes attack from the right. Deal with them, or just
run down the opposite waterpassage, but they'll probably follow. Continue down
the water passage and bust several boxesand open chests on each side. At the
end, on your right, is a lever that opens a gate back the otherway. Across from
the switch is a door you can pick the lock if you're good enough.
Go back the other way, through a waterway gate that the wall switch opened. As
you turn thecorner, several bats attack. On past the bat area, three goblins
wait up on some elevatedwalkways. On one end of the room is a ladder up. Climb,
then go left twice and over the turningwater wheel. Jump in the water and climb
onto the walkway. Go right, then left through thedoorway and fight several
goblins that come down the stairs to you.
Beyond the stairs, there's two goblin archers and a goblin with a large
crossbow machine on theopposite side. Go quickly to the left and down stairs.
Navigate the hallways, finding severalboxes and chests. Swim under a wall to
find a key to open two gates in the first tunnel near thefirst switch wall
switch. Back up and across in front of the three opposite goblins. Down
morestairs to last room and get a key for the goblin bridge you just passed.
You can activate the bridge and rush across to take out the dangerous balista
shooter, then theother two goblin archers. After all the fighting, it would be
smart to lower the bridge so nothingcan follow you. Up more stairs and bust
through a stack of wooden crates. To straight ahead, thenleft, right, right,
carefully left. The floor to the single chest will collapse if you step on it.
Gothrough the door, then straight ahead and left through another door.
Straight ahead, left, right, straight ahead and up steps to the end, go right,
right, left, pass anelevator with no lever. Find another elevator with a lever
that does nothing. In the corner is alever you can get. Go back to the first
elevator, get on it, use the lever and go up. Go through thewest door and
through the long hallway. The open doorway on the right has a loose brick.
Ingame version 1.4 and earlier you can push this brick. If you can, push it.
Go back down the elevator and straight west. On the map is a small room with
three chests ifyour game version shows three yellow dots. In game version c1.5,
you cannot push the loosebrick but the chests are still in the small secret
room. If you know about hex editing, you canchange your location in the save to
put you inside the room, then to get back out, hex edit yourlocation again, but
only for locations inside the theater.Once you've had enough of the small room,
go back up the elevator. Go back through the westhallway to the end and through
the left door opposite the loose brick. Go up the stairs to theupper part of
the theater. Below you are several goblins and an unchained beast. A goblin
magehas the theater key. Once you have it, go through the east or west doorway
of the theater floorand up the steps. Through the door up there is the last
room with the theater exit door.
Before going out to Fargrove, you might want to backtrack, opening what chests
and boxes youcan locate. Once you've had enough of the theater, leave through
the upper theater door toFargrove.

If you are playing version c1.5, you have to do a lot of jumping to find a key,
then more jumpingto unlock a gate to the relic that sits on a platform above
the water. If you're playing version 1.4,you can simply swim to the relic
platform and climb up onto it. If you just wait around where youteleported in,
the Naga Queen will show up. You must kill her, then swim under the water to
gether sigil. Once that's done, following are the directions if you are playing
version c1.5.
From where you teleported into, get across the gap to the other platform. Up
the steps, turn rightand up more steps. Jump the gap to east. Carefully walk
down to bottom step of next steps. Hitforward and jump at the same time to
safely get across. Head south to next gap and jump across.Go to end, turn right
and jump across. Jump next gap to the north and pull the lever. Face left(west)
and get to the original platform you first got on.
Head north up the steps and continue down next steps to north. Jump the gap, go
up steps andhead left (west). Jump southwest over to tower steps. Go on up and
around left. Jump southacross next gap. Continue on around and south to next
gap and SAVE. Make the big jump, get akey and gold from the chest, then drop
down the hole. Exit north and head back a little east to theoriginal platform
you jumped to.
Up steps and straight north down next steps. Jump the gap, steps, turn right
(east) and jump thegap to more tower steps. Go on up and face a long gap to the
north. SAVE, then make the jump.Go on around and unlock the gate. Go get the
Robe Relic, then swim back south to where youfirst arrived. Use the Sigil and

Go back up the steps and through the long poisonous gas hallway to an
intersection. Go left tonext right and bunny hop north across the burning floor
to next left. Go through the long room,then south through a big room to an

anddown stairs to your right. Continue to the room with four exits.
Go out the north door, and eventually up steps to final room and exit east door
from the Dungeonof The Moors. Head north to the swampy area, then west till you
can go south. When you areabout near where you first entered the moors, go west
as far as you can, then south through anarrow passage to open ground. You'll
soon come to a campfire. Just to the northwest is Mog'ssafe house through a
narrow passage. It's related to the quest "Big bad Mog".
If you got that quest, Mog is located to the far southeast in the next area of
Forbidden Lands.South of the campfire is a chest. SSE of the chest is a narrow
passage leading down to Sleth ifyou got that quest. Through a narrow passage,
south of Sleth, is his safe house. East of Sleth is anarrow passage leading to
the area where you want to go. Once there, head south and buy the"Totem of The
Tree" from Warglaw for 10,000.
Northeast from Warglaw is a cabin belonging to Minus Taw if you got the quest
to rescue SirFalen. To the east from Falen, up between the big rocks, is Mog if
you got that quest. Head northback to the road and go north back through
Skuldoon. You have to go to the far north to theNorthern Steppes. Follow the
road as it goes north, east, north and NW to the intersection west ofLake
Dread. From the intersection, go NW to the mountain and follow it west and
around to thebridge leading west and cross it.
Go northeast on the road along the river and it eventually turns NW. Continue
to the nextintersection and go right (north) to Lake Dire, then left and around
the lake to the north side, thenhead north towards Grymlock's tower. In version
1.4, he often wanders away from the tower.Once you meet him, talk on all
options till everything is greyed out.
From the tower, head roughly NW to the moonbridge, in the far NW corner, and
just activate it.Don't go anywhere else yet. Your next destination is the Isle
of the Damned to get a shadowcrystal. East of the moonbridge, on the other side
of the mountain spur is Brimgulden, if you gotthat quest. He's in the area of
the rune forge. Southeast from the rune forge is a narrow passageguarded by
some trees. Talk to Wuldenfyr and give him the Totem Tree. Head up through
thevalley to a couple of chests. Continue through the passage, to the Sea of
Woe, and swim to theright hand side of the island and get on land.
In version c1.5, there's a gazer at the altar. Get the shadow stone, then swim
SSE toward the fog.Now's a good time to use a liquid air, if you bought any at
the apothecary in Arindale. The fogwill take you under water. Just hold down
your jump button and keep your mouse to angle youupwards. Keep your cursor
headed SSW towards the Shadow Ruins and get on ground. Youmight have to jump a
bit.
On the south side of the Shadow Ruins is a chest with good stuff. Stand on
either side of the altaras you face east towards the cubby hole. SAVE before
using the crystal. Once you do, go directlyto the portal, stand in it, and hit
Shift. Once inside the ruins, DO NOT COME OUT till you atleast get the Rod
Relic of Divinity.
SHADOW RUINS. You can't do anything with the two guardians yet. Go east into
the hallwayand try to go either north or south and the hallway is blocked. The
two guardians are activated, sogo back and destroy them, then pull the lever on
the north wall to open the hallway again. In thehallway, go north to a room and
a shadow beast appears. Destroy it. On the east wall, push aloose tome to open
a secret room on the west wall.
Go through the north portal, kill the two knights and pick up the two shadow
stones. Go back outto the main hallway and go south, stay away from the shadow
portal, and continue east and northto a room. Use the two shadow stones to
activate the statues and destroy them. To the right of theportal is a loose
tome. Push it and a secret room just outside the room's south exit opens.
Onceyou're ready, continue north through the portal and you soon find yourself
in a room with twomoving platforms and four guards. SAVE!
It's very doubtful that you have spells powerful enough to destroy the guards.
Maybe in versionc1.5, but version 1.4 spells aren't up to it. You can do some
damage with a good bow, but it takesforever. About the only thing you can do is
try and jump onto a moving platform, then when it'sopposite the proper side
room, jump into there.
First, you have to get into the west room and get s shadow crystal. Then you
have to get into theeast room and use the crystal altar. Then you have to get
through the north portal that appears.Once you get through the north portal,
you end up in a room with three statues. Go out the westportal to the shadow
island. Go E, E, W, and get a stone from the chest.
Go S, E, E, and destroy the south statue. Go out the east portal, then go E, E,
E, and get a stonefrom the chest. Go N, N, W, destroy north statue.
Go out north portal, then E, N, W, E, get stone from chest. Go N, S, S, S, S,
destroy statue. Goout the south portal, activate the floor glyph, then go back
through the portal. Turn around andthrough the portal and bunny hop across the
platforms. If you fall, go E, E, N. On shadow island,go E, E, S, S and climb
the tower by pushing a loose brick at each level. There are two secretrooms on
the side of the tower.
You can stand with your back to an edge, slowly back away till you drop, and
quickly hit forwardto get into the two rooms.
Once on top of the tower, activate the glyph. Now SAVE. You have to jump around
theplatforms back to the exit portal. Once back in the hallway, go right and
notice the five coloredfloor tiles. You can think of them as Diamond, 9, Y, Z,
H, in that order. Jump to the top of thecolumns in that order to get across the
room. If you fall, go E, E, N. Once across, face left (east)and go through the
portal to a small room with murals of a knight and a beast.
Continue east through one more portal, now go back west one portal, finally go
east through fourportals to the shadow island. Now go W, S, N, S, E to the wind
jumping room. At the firstcolumn on your right, jump to the blue column, then
the Z at an angle to left, 7 at angle to left,then through the doorway.
Activate the floor glyph. Go out and walk over the edge, thenbackwards through
the porta, finally forwards through the portal.
Continue straight through the west portal. You can talk to Lord Kingston if you
want. Go throughthe south portal and get a shadow stone. Go back through the
same portal to Kingston. Put aCrystal of Time in one of your quick slots. Now
SAVE! Carefully read the following paragraphbefore trying it.
Slowly approach the north portal and activate the time crystal. Go through the
north portal, go toyour right to the wall and face directly north. Watch the
farthest platform. As soon as it startsdown, run/jump and you land on first
platform as it rises. Quickly angle from lower right toupper left corner and
run jump to next column. Then angle back right to third column, then angleback
left again to final column, the to the ledge and through the shadow gate. SAVE
in the chessroom. Your trip across the acid was a zig-zagging route from corner
to corner of the platforms.
Think of the floor as a chess board and the statues as pieces. The A is on the
north end and the Dis nearest you.
A1...A2...A3...A4.B1...B2...B3...B4.C1...C2...C3...C4.D1...D2...D3...D4.
Activate the shadow pedestal and step on D1, C1, D1 and a knight moves. Step on
C1, C2, B2,A2 and get the Shadow Slayer sword. Equip it as the only weapon and
turn off your quick menuso that you can only use the Shadow Slayer. Go through
the shadow gate and destroy the shadowwraiths. Talk to Lord Kingston till all
options are greyed out. Now you can equip your regularweapons. Finally, go
through the south gate, turn to your right and activate the statue.
Youautomatically place the Shadow Slayer from your inventory.
When Kingston stops next to a shadow gate, go through it. At the fourth gate,
Lord Kingston willsay "Find Me". Go through to the shadow island. Now go E, S,
S, S, N. Don't activate the glyphyet. Stand on the south side of it and face
north. Slowly back up to the south edge. Activate theglyph and drop backwards,
quickly go forward and you bump the tower and get into a secretroom.
Once you loot all you want, go through the portal and continue directly north
through next portalto the four glyph portal and go through. Continue to the
shadow island. Go E, S, W. Activate thestatue on your right and jump the gap.
If you fall, go E, E, W. Activate the next statue on yourright and jump that
gap. In the hallway intersection, go right (west) to the last room and
destroythe shadow wraiths. Notice the floating crystal.
Stand on either platform all the way in the corner and face the floating
crystal. Time your moveand run/jump, keeping jump pressed, and start Shift
grabbing for the crystal. You should be ableto get it in two or three tries.
Once you have it, go back out to the main hallway and continue eastto the end
room. Kill the Athena guard and get its crystal. At the main hallway large
centralroom, use the crystals on the two corner altars.
Go down the steps and through the portal to the shadow island. Go E, S, N, W,
and SAVE. Thensouth to enter the star shaped room. DON'T use spells. ONLY use
your best hand weapons. Eachtime you weaken the Shadow Lord enough, he will
drop a shadow stone. Place it in the cornerstatue. After placing 5 stones, get
the Rod of Divinity from the center of the room and equip itonly. It has enough
energy for two or three blasts at the Shadow Lords. Just keep swinging away.
When you finally kill him, be sure to pick up everything he dropped.
In version c1.5, the Shadow Lord drops an amulet. Identify it, then equip it.
Now look at yourquest log. Now use the Gate of Ascension. If you want to quest
to get the Shadow Lord ability,return to Staroxia and she recognizes you have
the amulet and offers you the quest. Accept it,then return to the Isle of The
Damned, in the Sea of Woe. Stand at the altar and wait for thedragon to fly in.
Defeat it, then return to Staroxia a final time to be granted the Shadow
LordPower, provided of course if you have high enough certain stats.
After leaving the Shadow Ruins, the next stop besides Staroxia in version c1.5,
is Skuldoon totalk with Vartugg. After that, go to the valley east of Skuldoon
and use the moonbridge andteleport to the Vale of Ruin. In the Vale, if you get
stuck in a deep hole, hold your forward buttonand continuously tap the jump
key. Sometimes it helps to face a different direction. Head northtill you can
go west. Continue west, gradually swinging south to clear ground, then
southeast toisland surrounded by a narrow band of water and three large
boulders. At the Unholy Arc, SAVE.Then activate the arc with the vial of blood.
Watch up to the northwest till Valkyra arrives. Talkto her and say "I wish to
bargain with Voraatus", then say "I will pay the price". You get thepasswords.
Now head back north through the Vale of Ruin, to the middle area and continue
northto the Draedoth Temple and SAVE before going inside.

Here you must do a lot of jumping to find 4 demon stones, each in a different
room, then on tothe final area where you use them to gain the shield relic and
another demon stone to get back tothe exit area.
From where you arrived, jump across straight ahead. Turn to your left (west)
and jump the gap inthe stairs.TIP: It's really convenient to save, in the same
slot, after every successful jump!

final area. In there, jump to the centralplatform and defeat Khad and pick up
his demon stone.
Around the platform there are four elevators that rise when you land on them.
Each platform isguarded. When you ride an elevator up, use a demon stone on the
Claw of Khad on that wall.After all four are activated, the Shield of

the two succubus to attack, good formore experience. Pick up Vartugg's eye. Go
back to the main room, then north and around westto the watcher room, then
north and talk to another watcher. Since you might already have someblast nova,
you probably don't want to choose demon spell. It's a cataclysm which is a
little morepowerful than the blast nova.

powerful weapon.Now return to the main room and go out the east doorway. In the
