- Updated ""Boss Rush Dungeon"" that has first appeared as challenging content in the legacy edition.
If you don't prepare well-planned equipment and enchantments when you challenge this dungeon, it won't take you so long to consider escaping from the dungeon.

- Boss Rush Dungeon is not like ordinary dungeons; you'll be forced to fight against multiple bosses, or fight while surrounded by enemies.
- Enemies appearing in each floor are not fixed so you'll face different enemies in every challenge.
- As you delve deeper into the dungeon, enemies' stats will increase infinitely.
- You'll be rewarded with token coins when you clear a floor.
- If you choose to pause at an altar, you'll get a special item that holds record of the progress. You'll resume your challenge by consuming the special item.
- In Boss Rush Dungeon, only exclusive reward items will be dropped.

The result of Boss Rush Dungeon will now be displayed. Please try this dungeon to see how deep you can delve into.

We understand that it takes time to balance things out when it comes to Magic. We'll add more Magic skills and adjust those balances as we continue to hear community's feedback.

◆ Balance Adjustments

◆ Performance Improvements
- Optimized the memory management by changing the way how to output game logs.
※ The location of Player Log has been changed.
Before: AppData/LocalLow/Pocketpair/Craftopia/Player.log
After: AppData/LocalLow/Pocketpair/Craftopia/Logs/PlayerLog_{DATE}_{TIME}.log
※ To Mod Developer: the way how to output game logs has been changed.
Please place the file named ""NoCustomLogger.txt"" inside of /AppData/LocalLow/PocketPair/Craftopia .
By doing so, the output of game logs will remain the same as the Craftopia before the update. Please note that this will disable the optimization effect as well.
