Draft:Magic Castle DS:Demon Castle Prison

The Demon Castle Prison (Japanese: 魔城内の牢屋) is the tutorial Dungeon in Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer DS2 - Magic Castle of the Desert. It's designed to teach the player about the most basic gameplay elements.

Dungeon Strategy

This dungeon is an un-skippable tutorial dungeon designed to teach the player about fleeing from Monsters when you're outnumbered and walking diagonally. Pressing the Y button brings up the grid and allows players to select their direction. Pressing the R button causes Shiren to walk exclusively in diagonal directions. Enemies have a lot of HP and don't offer any Experience so fighting them is a complete waste of time. Players are intended to dash to the exit, avoiding the Traps that start to appear on floors 3 to 1. If the Defeated, the player is sent back to floor 6 and has to start over again.
