The writing was great, and the dialogue sequences were really the high point for me :D
In order to balance the scales I just threw all the monsters in the pit, so I think the adventurers would have an easy time in my dungeons ;) It felt a little bit too easy, like I should have been rewarded for keeping monsters alive somehow
The game froze on the 3rd dungeon, so I could not get past that
All that said, I really liked the setting and the characters. I think the setup for each level was really well done (the fact that you get to Mage Hand the new monster) before the level begins.
