Castle Explorer

Well, other people weren't kidding about this board game simulation - of a game I only vaguely remember playing when I was a wee squirt, with a somewhat different title (Dungeonquest)! - being highly "RNG"-oriented...       My first game: I reached an impasse less than halfway through my twenty allocated turns...because a room I entered rotated, spat me out at an entrance other than the one I came in by...then proceeded to give me a dead-end shortly thereafter. So literally, I could only wander between three tiles, back and forth, and never progress further toward the centre of the board/castle that was my goal.       No dragon's treasure for me!       Next game: I chose a slightly different character - more of a super-strong, less-agile barbarian, as opposed to the more balanced warrior I chose the first time - and got a good bit further...before progressing so far in the "wrong" direction, through absolutely no fault of my own, that there was no chance I would reach the middle in time.

Fun game, love it :)
