Dungeon Nights
 |
Warning! Spoilers ahead!
Proceed at your own risk! |
Dungeon Night is the game's "date-sim" as an easter egg mode which is playable by naming the main character with either of the three passwords given after end credits finish upon game completion.
Your picked character will be shown in the Fear and Hunger academy, a special high school with only the most unique of students. Your objective for this mode is to get a prom that is upcoming in five days, which is also the date of the annual harvest festival of this academy, which all students must go to in order to avoid social awkwardness for the rest of the school year. There's a a lot of potential contestants, but you'll need to get them to actually like you for them to consider going with you to prom together. Will you get a date, or will you end up sad and alone? (hopefully, not the latter.)
Locations
- School. Consists of a classroom, a corridor and two teachers' offices. Each new day begins with a lesson.
- Shop. Guard sells various items: vials, food, drinks, cloth fragment ect.
- Interior Design. Yellow mage sells furniture for your dorm room. It has no gameplay effect, but for what this mode is, it's decor that makes the sad excuse of your room a little less barren.
- Hexen.. A room with the Hexen Table.
- Armor. Tall knight sells armors and weapons.
- Dormitory. Toilet, hallway and your room with a bed to save and move on the next day. You can get furniture for aesthetics from the Yellow Mage.
- Dungeons. Four different levels that are taken from the main game. There you can find additional items, soul stones and silver coins.
- The Dungeons [LVL 1]
- The Prisons [LVL 2]
- The Mines [LVL 3]
- The Ancient city [LVL 4]
Dates
You would need to go out on dates with some characters to win their affection. There are three places to go:
- The Caverns. Shooting mini-game. You have fifty arrows. To win you need to shoot at least 18 cave gnomes.
- The Bloodpits. Hide and seek game. Find all your classmates among the bloody dump of corpses.
- The Tombs. You need to solve a puzzle. (using the plates on the floor you have to draw Gro-goroth's symbol, the numbers on the sides mean how much plates should be in a row. )
Dates are limited in time so you need to act quickly. A successful date will bring you + 2 hearts. Failing would simply waste your time and the opportunity to go to prom with this character.
After the date, you will return to the town, but you will not be able to go down to the dungeons. Likewise, if you went to the dungeons, then you will not have time for a date.
Partners
The choice of a partner will take place on the 5th day. In order for the character to agree to go with you to the prom, you need to collect five "hearts" of relationship .

Endings
If you wish to see the full routes, links to all the endings will be listen here.
There doesn't seem to be that much variation depending on chosen player, so it should apply to all characters.
Note that there might be secret endings, but due to the exposure of this mode it might take a while to confirm if these are all of them.
Intro Dialogue
A dark and moist high school that looms deep in the shadows. One would think this is no place for youth to grow up in, but one would be simply wrong in that hasty assessment. The dungeon academy of Fear and Hunger.
A very special high school only for the most special students across the known world. I don't know how I got to attend this school among the hundreds of thousands of other applicants. Maybe it was by miraculous fate, a coin toss by the Gods that chose my fate. Whatever is the case, I feel honoured and full of pride in knowing that one day I will rank among the very few who graduated from this place... ...and endured the fear and the hunger this dungeon high school is known for.
In any case, before we go any further, let me introduce myself.
Trivia
- The starting dialogue mentioning fate and coin flips is a very obvious nod to the coin flip mechanic in the main game, and the punishing RNG for most players which contributes to the game'e notorious hostility to the player and serves to show the brutally dark hostility of the game world excellently.
- The main setting of the plot is very much a classic setting for a Visual Novel about love, with most of the plotbeats present.
- Saving works similar to Termina, where it's not tied to RNG but progresses time, but it's required to sleep to progress a certain route.
- The mode still contains nudity in the dungeon areas and even in the school, which might be off-putting to some people since it clashes with the Visual Novel style setting.
