Hey! thanks for this instructive comment.
I too had not managed to finish CSB at the time, but when it got ported to PC[1] with a feature to record your games, it spawned a speed run competition and I was shocked to learn that it can be defeated in less than 30 minutes, actually best time is 00h10m37s[2].
I gave it another try and manage to beat it after a few attempts, there's much trickery in how the dungeon is designed with falling traps on top of others and teleporters, but once you get your head your head around it and understand the diabolical demon director, it gets better.
Then there's the custom dungeons, and conflux is the real challenge, CSB is walk in the park in comparison.

- AlyssaRowan 12y agoAgreed, it has a number of very interesting features in how it gets around limitations in its own engine! And 10 minutes? Heavens above. Tell me that's tool-assisted.
- bigbugbag 12y agoYes but in a limited way, the rules says you are allowed to load your savegame in dmute to find the location of the necessary items that are random. So you can start a number of games and check the location of those items until you get one that suits you and play that game, which usually leads to finishing the games in a few hours.
