~TRAPS & DOORS~
Traps and doors are very important both in order to defend the dungeon but also to close down parts of the dungeon where you don't want your creatures to go...
Use the doors combined with the 12 different traps in order to keep you dungeon safe from smaller attacs and to even the odds when a more superior keeper attacs you with all of his force...
! You can only build traps and doors if you have a workshop in your dungeon !
For more information and descriptions about the different kinds of traps and doors you can build in you dungeon read the following guide:
