Entity

Monsters are creature NPCs in the Dungeon Dash game. The words NPC and Monster are used interchangeably on this page.

Interactions
While they Monsters not always hostile, most are. Hostile Monsters will instantly attack the player and try to kill them. Peaceful NPCs will either call for help (if being attacked), attempt to sell the player something (eg. shopkeepers), or talk to the player.

Monster Attributes
NPCs have the same attributes as players (although they use them less often) and are even handled using the same variable type (called an object) in the game code. Check the attributes page for how these are handled.

Monster List
Many of the monsters on this list have incomplete descriptions. This is to avoid spoiling the game for people who have not found the monsters for themselves.

Rat
Full Page: Rat, Real Bat

Base Damage: 2-7

The standard monster, these creatures build nests under shady areas and in caves. Rats attack with claws and bite. They are generally considered week, although they appear early in the game and can take down players who are not well prepared. Rats usually have a nest, which may contain money or other loot.

Bat
Full Page: Bat, Real Bat

Base Damage: 2-5

Bats are in much the same places as rats. However, they build nests far less frequently and much higher up. A bat is usually found on the sealing and is hard to see in the dark. They have night vision and can fly. While bats deal less base damage than rats (only 2-5, compared to Rat's 2-7), they are considered more powerful. This is partly because they usually have more hit points and also because they fly around their target, making them are very hard to hit. If a bat has loot, it is usually in the form of some item laying on the ground in the area.

Zombie

Base Damage: 3-9

Zombies are a type of undead. They are found only in dark places and are most common in the necromancer's lair. However, powerful zombies may be encountered during the night. The true power of zombies ranges widely, mostly based on the what they were in their previous life.

Skeleton

Base Damage: 2-4 + Special

Skeletons are a type of undead. They are found only in dark places and are most common outside at night. However, there are some skeletons in the necromancer's lair. Skeletons attack by bow and arrow.

Skeletons deal 2 - 4 base damage, but also have a 1-3 "bow multiplier" on their weapon damage. This means that a skeleton with an attack of 2 can deal 4-10 damage, while one with an attack of 5 can deal 7-19 damage.

Mage

Base Damage: Spells

Mages are low level spell casters. All mage spells are touch spells, so if you aren't hit, the spell fails. If a mage does manage to hit, the spell has a 1/4 chance to fail, resulting in the mage just punching you. While a mage can cast an infinite amount of spells, they don't have a very large repertoire to draw from.

Overlord

Base Damage: 5-40 (Weighted to Higher Numbers)

Archmage
Full Page: Mage, Wikipedia Mage

Base Damage: Spells

Archmages are high level spell casters. Like mages, all their spells require touch and fail if you aren't hit. The Archmage has all the spells of the mage (expect more powerful) and more. Like mages, they never run out of spells. Archmages are incredibly powerful and should not be messed with until end game.
