Computer-Generated Dungeon Map
PANDEMONIUM #78 3 PAGE 1943 I've told you before, this is a computer- generated dungeon. Everything is placed using random numbers. Now all our encounters will be logically balanced! ENTRANCE .10 FOOT PIT 3 ORCS 1 GEM EXIT 2 SKELETONS 1 NECKLACE 1 GNOLL 2 GOLD PIECES GNOME 31 OGRES 12 WRAITHS 9 GORGONS 1 BUGBEAR 5 COPPER PIECES
A vintage-looking dungeon map lays out rooms, corridors, monsters, treasure, and hazards under a speech bubble claiming that random computer generation will make encounters logically balanced. The joke is that the supposedly balanced result is absurdly overloaded with powerful creatures and loot, mocking procedural generation and game-master logic. It works as a reaction to chaotic systems that confidently claim to be fair or well designed.
