Draft:Magic Castle DS:Demon Castle Prison

The Demon Castle Prison (Japanese: 魔城内の牢屋) is the tutorial dungeon of the game. It's designed to teach you about the most basic gameplay elements before sending you off to fight in regular dungeons.

Dungeon Strategy

This dungeon is an un-skipable tutorial dungeon designed to teach you about fleeing from Monsters when you're outnumbered and walking diagonally. You walk diagonally by pressing the Y button to bring up the grid and select your dungeon or pressing the R button to walk exclusively in diagonal directions. The enemies have a lot of HP and don't offer any Experience so fighting them is a complete waste of time. Just make a dash to the exit and avoid the Traps that start to appear on floors 3 to 1. If you die and fail at any point, you'll be reverted back to floor 6 and have to start over again.
