How the game changes
- Choose the original campaign, an installed DLC campaign or a combination. The base-game campaign is available without DLC; selected DLC must be owned and installed.
- Completed encounters send checks. Extra encounters and stacked bonus checks adapt the campaign to the number of rewards required by your settings.
- Receive level-ups, weapon and armor improvements, skills and action unlocks. Upgrades can target individual heroes or the whole party, and Archipelago level-ups can be disabled.
- Shuffle encounter order, adjust difficulty limits and randomize loot. Optional traps hinder a character in combat, while boons provide effects such as healing or defensive support.
- The new Roguelike campaign option requires the separate Roguelike Mode mod. Optional Hardcore mode restarts campaign progress after a lost encounter; DeathLink can share party defeats.
Before you start
- The reviewed release is 1.6.0 for the Windows game. The release notes mention a fix for game version 4.39, but do not define a complete compatibility range. Linux and other environments were not verified.
- Install both the APWorld and the matching mod package. DLC campaigns are loaded from your installed game; the separate Roguelike Mode mod is required for that campaign and its implementation was not independently reviewed here.
- Use a dedicated campaign save and keep backups. The reviewed save path is not bound to a unique Archipelago seed and slot, and a lost connection does not automatically reset or reconnect the client.
- Static review found limitations in replaying received items and retaining checks across interruptions. Do not assume that reconnecting or loading an older save recovers every reward exactly once.
- The World has an action-name mismatch for one hero, and its new party-wide action option lacks the individual-action access guards. Some shop filtering and random-build choices also differ from the documented settings.
- Hardcore reset does not clear every piece of campaign and reward bookkeeping. The maintainer also documents that winning through Retry Encounter can bypass the reset. Trap and boon queues are not fully isolated across client sessions.
- The room password is saved in a local configuration file. The network dependency can fall back from a secure to a plaintext connection when no scheme is specified; confidentiality is not guaranteed by this review.
- The archives contain the custom mod, its dependencies and an Archipelago logo. Complete distribution license and attribution notices were not established, although the publisher explicitly permits adapting game code for Dawnsbury Days mods.
