Hey doomed souls,

If I still had a beating heart, it would be beating so fast right now. I don’t know how all these souls were able to escape my crypts to make a review, but thank you. I’m glad you had a wonderful time dodging the slimes, talking to the rats, and playing Whatever. I only let you win in Whatever. No, I am not what you call “salty”.

Cryptmaster Ask Me Anything (AMA)

Hey doomed souls,

Yesterday my full crypts were launched to the whole world and underworld. I would first like to thank all the poor souls who came and got consumed by my catacombs. For all the surviving souls who are still trapped in my crypts, I am surprised you survived that long and as a reward I will be hosting an AMA on the Cryptmaster subreddit along with my lower dev minions Lee and Paul starting at 9am PDT.

If you have any burning questions you would like to ask the developers or me, the amazing Cryptmaster, be sure to ask there. My minion will open up a post there once the AMA starts.
