I'm sorry. my writting wasn't too clear there... What I mean is that if you
have more than one legal way to connect a piece, you have to at least do so
once. If one of the ways to connect it is to the entrance set, then you must
do so, and any other connections are optional. If you cannot connect it to
the entrance set, but you can connect it to any other set, then you must
choose at least one. Any others are optional too...

Was that clear?

The building phase ends when there is a connected set from the entrance to a
5 tile. If you draw a 5 tile but cannot connect it, then the building phase
still continues.

On the othe hand, if a player powers their character up to 5, then he enters
the dungeon in whatever state is in.

Yes.

Thanks for trying the game out. I look forward to reading your comments
about it :)
