The dungeon is a room or set of rooms that can be built in the basement of a player-owned house. It can be built at level 70 Construction. To build a dungeon, the player first needs either a skill hall, quest hall, garden or formal garden room in which either a staircase or a dungeon entrance can be built in. Interacting with the entrance will prompt the player asking which type of room will be built underground. Building rooms from limestone or marble spiral staircase will require resources to build a matching staircase or a dungeon entrance for gardens in the newly built room.

There are three different types of dungeon rooms, each with their own hotspots. The three styles are:

  • Corridor
  • Junction (or Cross)
  • Stairs

Each part of a dungeon that is built counts as a room against the total number of rooms a player can have. For example, building a stairs room, a junction, and two corridors counts as four rooms. Some players who wish to build an extensive dungeon often end up removing other rooms they had previously built.

The house owner can put the dungeon in challenge mode using a lever in a throne room.

It costs 7,500 to make a corridor, junction, or stairs room. The cost of building a staircase in a quest hall or skill hall, or a dungeon entrance in a garden or formal garden will have to be included when considering the total cost to build a dungeon.

There are 7 hotspots available across all dungeon room types:
