    The revised Perilous Wilds has a system-neutral dungeon generation as well that I've been using for solo games for weeks. It's fantastic!

    This is where Perplexing Ruins was first introduced to me. It has inspired me to generate my own generation worksheets. My hexcrawl template is largely based on Sandbox Generator by Atelier Clandestine and is perfect for Solo play and group play, alike. The Dungeon generator is proving to be more challenging to design.

    Im a year late but this was great! My friend and I have been trying to create a Garden of Eden style dungeon with some smaller floors above it. We have alot of ideas for different floor themes but Ive been lost on trying to put something interesting on every floor. This looks like it will help a lot

    @@martinouellet3540 That's a really simple and neat way of doing it! I'll actually give it a shot myself as well. Just off the top of my head, this probably benefits from having a "threshold", like, you have to roll at or under your current level on a die in order to end a dungeon. So, on level 4, it's way higher of a chance for the dungeon to end than on level 1. The die type can affect it too - D4 makes it end much sooner, and D10 makes for a much longer dungeon! Might be something worth trying!

    Thank you so much Matt! The tools we use have some cross-over, and I've actually been introduced to a bunch due to your videos. I recently found another one just called "Sandbox Generator" on DTRPG that is very good indeed, and has a very classic feel to the results, so I thought you might be interested! It has settlement, hex, dungeon, etc generators and it goes into a lot of detail.
