There are many players who will be able to get into the game almost immediately, but there are some people who may not take to all of the mechanics of the game. There are some beginner tips for players to know before they get started on game play.
7The Dungeonheart Is The Most Important Part
The Dungeonheart - as it is stated in the name - is the heart of the player’s dungeon.Everything banks on this crystal being intact and alive, so it would be wise for a player to focus their resources in keeping it protected.
Every hero who raids the player’s dungeon is going to want to take down the Dungeonheart. A player cannot let that happen - if a player heads off with their units to the Overworld, it would be areallygood idea for them to leave some behind to defend the Dungeonheart.
6Do Not Forget To Save
Defeat can happen in an instant if a player is not careful - even if they are, it can still happen with one little move,wiping out huge swathes of a player’s progress in one go.As such, it would be a great idea for a player to save as often as they can.
Every opportunity a player gets should be used to save the game. It can be very hard - if not impossible - to replicate previous success by taking the exact same steps, so a player should remember to save just in case.
5Get As Much Evilness As Possible
It sounds like a joke to someone uninitiated, but Evilness is actually a legitimate currency inDungeons 3, and it is just as important as the other currency in the game, Gold. As such, it would be beneficial for a player to get as much Evilness as they can.

Evilness can be used to upgrade a player’s horde, making them stronger in the long run. It can be acquired byconquering “good” areas in the game, so a player should try and conquer as much as they can, in order to upgrade more units.
4Learn About Room Efficiency
When a player clicks on their dungeon, they may notice something called Room Efficiency that is displayed over each of their rooms. Room Efficiency is not included in the game’s tutorial, so it may not be something that many players realize is important.
However, Room Efficiency is a good indicator of how well a room can perform its specific task. For example, a Vortex Room, when high enough inEfficiency, can be used to heal units that were damaged in battle- when the Efficiency is above 90%, this room will heal units much faster and get them back in the game real quick.
3Enlarge The Gobbler Farms, They Are The Only Food Source
Even a player’s minions of doom need to eat! If the minions are hungry, then that means they will not be able to do their job as well as they could - this means that feeding a player’s units andkeeping them well fed should be a top priority.
The only way for a player to feed their units is with Gobbler Farms, though. Though a player will not be able to immediately, they should work on enhancing and upgrading the Gobbler Farms to feed more and more units.
2Get Some Evil Essence Pools
Evil Essence Pools are going to be one of the more important things for a player to focus on when it comes to raiding dungeons. They are usually around the dungeon’s entrance, and need to be stolen from the guarding Heroes.
Essence areas will be a great way to fill up on Evilness, therefore unlocking more upgrades for units.This is also a good way to be able to unlock Research, further improving what a player has to offer within their own dungeon and making it much more efficient.
1Get Ready To Raid
This is where the Real Time Strategy part of the gameDungeons 3comes in. A player needs to grab their best and strongest units, and prepare to start raiding and conquering the world around them to expand their dungeon and take all the resources needed - of course, the Dungeonheart must also be protected as well.
A player should never rely on having one unit type only in their dungeon.Having a good mix of units will be the secret to success- different units are strong against different things, and it is no different while raiding through the overworld.
Dungeons 3is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, Linux, macOS, and Macintosh operating systems.
