Yes, they are most certainly impressive.
Hopefully David will show us more pictures of the long lost Knightmare dungeon very soon....

Re: David Rowe's dungeon archaeology
Yes, I saw these yesterday. As much as I love the Serpent's Head room in S3, I love the artistic variation on it here.
What about those from last week? The causeway is made more intriguing by the addition of a second exit.

Re: David Rowe's dungeon archaeology
I like the two-exit causeway a lot.
What's intriguing is the fact that you can make a few words with the letters available - DR has highlighted MORTAL to indicate a correct route, but you could just as easily make PORTAL (which might actually make more sense considering where you're going!) or (at a push) PORTING - which leads to the other door (on the left!).
It's much more complicated than FIND/PATH - I imagine the keyword would have been given out via a spyglass or scroll or something - but I'd have loved to see this as a puzzle!

Re: David Rowe's dungeon archaeology
A couple of people have suggested that a book of these "After the Greater Game" rooms be published.
I would happily pay towards a kickstarter for it!

Very enjoyable indeed! Definite potential for a sequel to his earlier work.

Re: David Rowe's dungeon archaeology
I did wonder if those maggots were feeding on the giant's corpse. Looks like maybe they were!!
