Plot

Grab a torch and your trusty sword. The evil Count Scout-ula has sunk Castle Karnstein and its town into the void!

Fight through the hordes of Count Scout-ula's minions to reach the castle, then climb its floors all the way to the top to face off against the Count himself and save the town!

Gameplay

/dungeonmobarena join (hereafter /dma join) can be used to enter the lobby and /dma leave to leave it. From there, instructions for the minigame can be read, and behind it, the main lobby can be accessed, containing a board of the classes from MobArena.
Once a player is ready, a 60-second timer will countdown and after that, the minigame begins.

There are 5 areas (3 main ones, 2 transitional): the town, the castle's entrance (transition), the castle's interior, the stairway (transition) and the boss arena.
The bronze key is required to unlock the entrance to the castle's entrance (yes, that's not a wording error), and the silver key is required to access the stairway.
These can be obtained by killing a certain number of mobs, which continuously spawn throughout the dungeon.
Sometimes, these mobs can drop food.

The durability of tools, weapons and armor is continuously regenerated.
Mage classes can use spells that consume some amount of mana, which regenerates over time.

On the last flight of stairs in the stairway, the warp point is activated by jumping on the 2nd column of the 2nd row, from the bottom. From there, the battle against the boss starts, and contrary to the plot, it's not Count Scout-ula, but rather, one of his minions: a zombie pigman, who can summon mobs for assistance against players, throw a fireball, bring down lightning and heal themself.
