Mental Block Gaming proudly presents 'RogueQuest: Chronos and the Lantern of Souls'
RogueQuest is a single player and multiplayer rogue-like map, complete with four distinct classes and completely randomly seeded dungeons. Hack and slash your way through 6 levels of zombies, skeletons, and whatever other baddies come your way as you traverse the distant realms to save Lycia!
Unravel the mystery of why darkness is taking over the land. Can you purge the realms of the unspeakable evil within and make Lycia safe once more?
Our brand new Minecraft map features a rogue-like style game play with:
Randomly generated levels, making every play through unique
4 Unique characters with individual play style
Upgrade tree for items
24 breathtaking cut-scene cinematics
Play alone or with friends (Single and multiplayer)
I found the key to the portal in the ice place (idk what the proper spelling is and don't want to butcher it), so I entered the portal and came out in a shop area. There is an obsidian portal on either side of the room, but both are blocked by barrier blocks, and there doesn't seem to be any way out of the room. Do I just have to wait, am I blind, or is this a bug?
EDIT: One of the portals activated while I was typing that, so it looks like I just had to wait.
On a side note, what's the minimum render distance that this will work on? The map sometimes has lag spikes, but I'm afraid that turning down my render distance too much will break it.
Yes Mario, that will be to do with loading times. Just fill the time with shopping!
Since the map is all on the spawn chunks, even the smallest render distance should work properly. I would probably recommend 5-6 chunks so as you move aorund the dungeon it doesn't need to keep loading and unloading, but 2-4 should work!
Turning off the Custom Music may help with the lag spikes during actual gameplay.
Try the steps in the post above your post, this might help with lag spikes.. also when new music loads for the first time it can lag slightly, but the longer you are playing the less this will happen. Hope this helps!
1) Classes must be UNLOCKED in the game. You'll find them as you play!
2) When you kill the Shulker inside the Kryataur, you must stand on the glowstone while holding the lantern of souls in your main hand for 3 seconds. You will hear a noise.
3) Players within one tile will be teleported into the room with you when you start. Any players further away will not.

Hi Fartofury!
1) Classes must be UNLOCKED in the game. You'll find them as you play!

Glad you're enjoying the game so far!
Definitely giving this a whirl!
Can't wait to hear what you think
Here's the start of another playthrough, this time in French
Looks great! Just when I decide I'll sit back and not check on dev for a week! I come back, and you've released it. XD
We've updated the Known Issues post to include a couple of fixes until v1.2 of the map is released!
Holy crap,
Must say, greatest forum page ever xD
Downloading...
Oh wait, internet...
Will download once internet isn't dying...
The saga continues with no_leaf_clover!
A new series is starting! Une nouvelle en francais en plus !

- No more boss practice bugs screwing up dungeon generation
- Ranger bow upgrades grant increased health
- Rangers base health starts lower
- Joel's flags no longer say they can be found from bunnies
- Flares no longer given to incorrect classes
- Final boss TP lowered
- Some Freddie texts corrected
The important news is that dungeon generation now works properly throughout the whole game - PHEW!
Enjoy! And please report any issues you find.
A new playthrough by Rextr this time
Would love to hear if anybody has streamed this, also! Please let us know
If your other maps are any indication, then this should be fantastic!
