Refuge Station

A dragon (because they like to hoard jewels and play games) has decided to claim a mine and all its valuable ore. You find yourself in the mine’s refuge station and need to complete a series of tasks in order to gain passwords, retrieve clues, interact with your surroundings, and gather information needed to collect all your personal protective equipment (PPE) to reclaim the mine. 

Mine

After escaping the refuge station, you must make your way through the mine to the cage which will take you to the surface; once again your path will be strewn with obstacles and puzzles.

Core Shack

Now that you have left the mine, you find yourself in the core shack. From there, you must find the correct piece of core and file it away correctly to save the mine. This experience introduces new tools to help you solve the final dragon challenge.
