Mines of Moria

New players are recommended to play as a Warrior.

### Let's agree on a few concepts

* Responsive touchscreen first gameplay
* Size matters; one tiny download for many random dungeon interactions
* Respect Battery life
* No network access, no ads, no in-game transactions
* Many devices exist; please report anomalies

### Alpha Hardware

* 720p+ display resolution
* arm architecture (arm64-v8a or armeabi-v7a)

### Alpha Limitations

* Hallucination mechanics are omitted
* Death or a game crash is not a complete loss; you restart at the beginning of the level

### Game Progression

* Attributes (Strength, Intelligence, Wisdom, Dexterity, Constitution, Charisma)
* Experience (Character Level)
* Equipment (Weapon, Armor, Rings, Amulet, Helm, Gloves, Boots, Cloak, Shield, Light, Offhand)
* Dungeon Depth
