Words of Yendor changes
The v1.1 update implements game balance adjustments and generic improvements for the user experience.
Showdowns are now (optionally) less cruel. As you know, in this puzzle, each letter swap costs some of your accumulated Experience and Clues points. Once any of these runs out, the price for each swap is the loss of 1 Health. Since this update, while your Health is below the half of its maximum, you'll also receive a teleport-swap charge to give you an extra chance to complete these puzzles.
Scouting: An icon reminds you of the risk (or the lack of it) of failure in Scouting puzzles. This is the same icon you see in the top left corner of the encounter cards.
- AssassinsThey are still quite deadly, but their defense has been reduced.
Screensaves (shortcut: F11) filenames now contain the length of the Word along with the adventure seed; the screensaves can be found in the data directory, accessible from the Main Menu's top left corner.
Various bug fixes and adjustments for minor visual glitches.
