Hello everyone. It's Terry again! Community Developer of Dear Villagers.
Before you begin your work as Reivax, the Dungeon Steward. It's better to know his history and his role in the game. Let's dive in!
5 Fun Facts about Reivax
[hr][/hr]
1. A graduate of the Bitter Warlock Sidekick Certification, Reivax has recently applied for the job of chief minion for the famous Zangdar, Naheulbeuk’s Dungeon Master.
2. Coward and cunning by nature, he is venal and much more intelligent than the others. Some say he secretly runs the dungeon, taking advantage of the Zangdar's credulity. But Zangdar keeps a close eye on his actions and never misses an opportunity to remind him who is in charge.
3. A smooth talker, he has been accused of embezzlement, false invoicing, and other strange misappropriations. He remains loyal to the Zangdar’s business unless threatened, as he does not support physical pain.
4. Linguist, he speaks goblin, orc, raven code, ogre, and common troll.
5. Reivax was born in the northern part of the country, in the town of Mlaüke to be exact. He served at various posts for a short time before finding work in the Dungeon of Naheulbeuk.
Reivax and his duties
[hr][/hr]
The Dungeon has been in a poor state for too long. As Reivax, the servile (or not) Steward, your mission is to restore it to its former glory and make it profitable!
In the game, you must build up the Dungeon's reputation and make it the most feared and attractive place in the Lands of Fangh. Meanwhile, don't let Zangdar's patience gauge run out! Otherwise, it's game over!

Human Resources[/h3]
Your first job, of course, is to manage the dungeon's human resources.
Hire less useless personnel to work, defend, raid, and serve your boss, Zangdar. As the Steward, you have several missions in the HR section:
Improve the minions’ working conditions without exceeding the budget! Each employee you hire has a morale gauge, mainly influenced by fun, hygiene, energy, hunger, food type and quality, and ... getting paid. You must make sure to fulfil their needs for them to perform!
Put the minions to work! Each one has its own job, rank, origin, and expectations. As your minions' expectations are met, the dungeon's reputation increases. Higher-ranking minions earn more money and fail less often, and vice versa.
Fire your minions if they are bad at their job or if they protest with impossible demands. You can also help them "understand" with a little tour in jail with your torturers...
Ensure the working conditions of your minions: Improve the sanitary facilities and hire decent domestics to attract a certain class of customers or servants.

Treasurer[/h3]
Once you've hired your minions to work in the dungeon, you'll need to manage your budget and most importantly... make money!
Firstly, the Dungeon of Naheulbeuk is not a charity. As Reivax, you will need to develop the tavern to bring in some income.
Manage the tavern: This fine establishment will be your main source of income. You must maximize its profits. Serve the right drinks to the right group of customers, separate the henchmen from you wealthiest customers. Do everything you can to gain Tripes Adviser sausages, your tavern’s prestige indicator.
Produce: Production is the key to prosperity and monopoly, so you need to generate a wide range of resources to flood the market! Tools, weapons, compost, astral energy and more! Stock them to gain advantages and sell them to gain money!
Kill adventurers: A Dungeon with a better reputation means more adventurers. More adventurers means more gold for the Dungeon when proof of death of the avid adventurers is provided to the Dungeons Fund.
Accounting: View the tavern's financial report to see its income and expenses. This will help you adjust your strategy and ensure profitability!

Interior Design [/h3]
In the game, you will also need to work on the interior design and decoration of the Dungeon. This is one of the ways in which you can increase the prestige of the rooms and thus the reputation of the dungeon.
[h3]
Security of the Dungeon[/h3]
The Guard Room is vital to the defence of the Dungeon's entrance. Your job is to hire the guards to protect the dungeon from invaders!
You must build the guard lockers! Each locker automatically recruits one or more guards. They will do their job until the alarm goes off. When it does, they will automatically go into battle.
