The Perfect Series
-
Thinking about it some more, I think each of the three levels should be a challenge in themselves in that:
Level 1 should be a collection/miscellany of rooms and puzzles a la series 1/2/3 - like a sort of 'training' level.
Level 2 should have puzzles but should present the team with a more consistent threat - something that follows them from room to room. Like, for example, a labyrinthe haunted by an evil magician. It could culminate in a series 4-style final encounter where the dungeoneer only survives if, say, they recover all the letters of a spell (placed in hard-to-reach spots in rooms with obstacles, which they must take before the magician catches them up).
Level 3 should have lots of very difficult puzzles, a final encounter with Lord Fear and a life force emergency.
Above all, the perfect series should have the feeling of grand scale that series 3 and 4 had - a kind of empty or deserted feeling but with the faint feeling that something's there. Just like a real dungeon.
Oh, and it must have a life force clock face!
OK, I'm done.

Oh, you should just know there's going to be a very very very very long post from me on this thread sooner or later. Have you no sympathy for people's eyes, Malefact?
-
I disagree Malefact if that is your real name, knighmare must not see another series. MOOHAHAHA
-
Dont dispare Malefact I was just pulling your leg, but on a more serious note. When you listted the characters they should have in a newer series "it must have Treguard, Lord Fear, Motley and Sylvester Hands and Hordriss" I was shocked to see that you missed out Lilth and granitarse. Although I think that it would be best if they missed out the jester, dont you.
-
Yes its true Malefact and Malefact_ are one and the same. Though my diffinative name is Lewis Andrews.
-
Im doing a crafty ploi to increase my acount to a knight, but i cannot tell you how. It will ruin the suprise.
-
Yes a knight. Did you know that I once apeared on knightmare, it was in series two. Check for me i'm in the credits, I got destroyed by Granitarse.
-
What would you need for your perfect series of knightmare? rooms, characters, objects, clues, etc?
For me, its
Corridor of Blades,
Lord F,
Sly Hands (or Conan The Vegetarian)
Barry!!,
Scrolls,
Wells,
and of course, the greatest saying ever -
First i'll blip ya, then i'll blop ya! (fantabolous acting!)
(and of course Mrs Grimwold )
-
I think for me-
The block and tackle as a level 1 chamber.
Corridor of blades connecting level 2 and 3.
Trial by spikes in level 2.
The Stained glass window room as a final chamber in level 3.
Wells as a way into level 2.
The brollachan asking difficult questions.
Pookas!
Brother mace.
Mogdred and Lord Fear combined as an unstoppable force of evil!!!
And of course Treguard and Pickle on the powers that be.
-
Id have to say,
No known opposition ( Like series 1-4 )
Inside locations only with maybe 1 or 2 outside bits
3 Question clue rooms
Gretel in level 1 wellway room
Block and tackle in level 2
Merlin with senial demensia
Mrs G and festus guarding level 2 mine cart to lv 3
Multi danger fast action lv 3 ( like series 3 ) with Mogdred
Corridor of blades in lv 3

In grand tradition, I have been thinking about this.
I'd like a Dungeon, as opposed to going on safari.
I'd like it to have the kind of 'deserted' feeling that the first four series had. I'd like to see lots of colour and lots of variation - not having a clue what the next room could be. The Dungeon must be ruthless, with lots of opportunities for getting rid of duff teams such as Bomb Rooms, the Corridor Of Blades etc. I want Catacombites, Ariadne, goblins, Cavernwights and all manner of ghosties.
As well as having the latter-day baddies, I'd also like to see a Mogdred-style baddie. He could perhaps haunt Level Two. I want to see a sort of horror-chiller element in that so that the audience is watching through their hands clasped to their eyes.
A really ripping Final Conflict would be very good, too, along with a Life Force emergency. The Clock, incidentally, must be in the style of the original.
I'd like to see a strong but subtle sci-fi element, too. This was always the thing that appealed to me most, as opposed to the more fantasy-oriented things. The implied science behind the fire in Treguard's antechamber and the Dungeon is something that I have always really liked.

Hi there! This is my first posting on this forum. I have been reading lots of the past posts for quite a while though.
I think that it would have to have the original theme music and opening titles, which were amazing- I thought that the series 6-8 music and opening titles weren't very good. A few outside locations(like the green valley), but otherwise inside, wall monsters, but not every time (they are good, but it is a bit boring when you know every time that they are coming), loads of things chasing them (the knight, Ariadne e.t.c), the computer generated dwarf tunnels- basically all the series 1-3 rooms and characters mixed together. No Treguard assistant. The original life-force sequence. But... Lord fear could sometimes be the baddie, and there could be spyglasses- I think they're great.
Just one quick question- did anyone see Knightmare the other day, and these yellow letters kept popping up- no one mentioned them, as if they weren't there. What were they for?
-
Anykind with Lord Fear, Hodriss, Barry, dragons, computergraphics and real dungeons and Festus
