Haunted States System for Escape the Dungeon Maze
Combat in “Escape The Dungeon Maze” just got a lot more strategic R4.0 - December 2025 with the introduction of the Haunted States system!
Haunted Status Effects
Both monsters and your hero can now be afflicted with various haunted states that dramatically affect combat:
- Poisoned: Suffer repeating damage over time
- Frozen: Unable to move or attack, completely incapacitated
- Frightened: Too scared to attack, can only defend or flee
Spells and Cures
To complement these status effects, I’ve added:
- Haunt Spells: Inflict these conditions on your enemies
- Cure Spells: Remove status effects in combat
- Cure Potions: Heal haunted states when needed
This creates new tactical possibilities - do you save your cure potions for emergencies, or use haunt spells aggressively? Every decision matters more than ever!
The December 2025 release is approaching quickly, bringing together months of development work into one comprehensive update. The wait is almost over!
