[edit] Games
[edit] Thy Dungeonman
Thy Dungeonman originated in the Strong Bad Email video games, as a game "for those intellectual people with better imaginations."
In the full game, the Dungeonman must escape from Yon Dungeon (while learning what parapets are along the way).
The game purportedly includes a 400-page instruction manual, consisting of 395 pages of lore and 5 pages of PC instructions.
[edit] Thy Dungeonman II
Thy Dungeonman II sees the Dungeonman (who can be named by the player) awakening in a locked dungeon cell.
The game is described as coming with a three-volume set of Thy Encyclopedias and Reference Guide.
[edit] Thy Dungeonman 3
Thy Dungeonman 3 is the first game to feature full graphics; though the prior games used limited ASCII art, pixelated images accompany every screen in this game. The Dungeonman attempts to retrieve Ye Flask in a journey that takes him out of the dungeons and to several locations through the countryside.
[edit] Other
- The Animated Adventures of Thy Dungeonman is a cartoon starring Thy Dungeonman and the text commands, featured in the email web comics.
- Thy Dungeonkid is a platformer spinoff, appearing briefly in Happy 20th Trogday! and mentioned as a potential real-world game in a 2024 interview with Destructoid.
