The game was Dungeon-Fortress. I lost to Grumble. I had bad luck with the placement of locations. Most of the locations I needed to visit were too far away, and I ended up visiting them. They gave me a minimal number of creatures after I collected them. On top of that, my main hero never leveled up in knowledge stats and remained at 1 for the entire game. The main mistake was approaching Utopia too late.
I confirm. It happened.
