Walkthrough
1. The burial hall: find the Crypt Key
The first door is sealed. Click (or tap) the burial urns in the hall to search them: one of them holds the Crypt Key, which opens the door for the whole party. Careful, some urns hide a Restless Spirit! Searched urns break, so you always know which ones are left.
2. The lever chamber
Walk up to the inscription on the north wall: the tracker shows what it says, for example "Star rises first, then the Sun, and the Moon ends the night." Then pull the Moon, Star and Sun levers in that order. The order is different every run.
A wrong lever makes all levers snap back and wakes a skeleton. Just start again.
3. The pressure plates
Two pressure plates must be held at the same time. Stand on one each. A plate stays pressed for a few seconds after you step off, so two players can manage, and plates stay pressed longer when your party is small.
4. The throne room: The Forgotten King
The King wakes as soon as your party enters his throne room.
- Ground Slam: the tiles around him glow red first. Step away before it lands.
- Grave Wave (from his second phase): a line of tiles lights up in front of him. Step to the side.
- Bone Servants: at 75%, 50% and 25% health he raises Bone Servants to help him.
- Enrage: below 25% health he attacks faster and harder.
- On Hard he also uses Crown's Judgement on one player (move away from the marked area, and away from your friends), and his slams leave cursed ground for a while.
Keep moving out of the red tiles, kill the Bone Servants quickly so they don't surround your healer, and save your potions for his enrage at the end.
After the King falls, the vault opens: a treasure chest with your summary and a return portal to Aeven.
