Making the Dungeon




To make the paper dungeon start with some idea of the layout of your dungeon. The dungeon wall and floor sheets are used to make every part of the dungeon rooms and connecting corridors. I've highlighted green the room of the dungeon I'm going to show you how to make.






Stage 1

First thing to do is cut out from the floor tile sheet the correct size for the room to be made. In this case a 4x4 room as shown. There is nothing stopping you making rooms of any shape but keep it simple while you learn how to put the dungeon together.








Stage 2

Second stage is to cut out walls long enough to fit on each side of the room your building. In this case 4 squares long. You will see there is a guide at the bottom of the walls to show you where to cut for the right length.




Once you have the walls at the right length you can cut off the guide strip (I did the guide stip so you wouldn't have a line down the wall section). Lastly score along the middle of the wall section and fold in half. But do not stick the two halves together at this point!

Stage 3

To connect the walls to each other you will need to use the tabs. There are two pages of tabs included with the Dungeon. One is marked 'Wall Tabs', these are used to connect the walls of your dungeon together.


They are all the same size which is the same height as the wall sections. You will need one for each corner where you intend to join two wall together. The second tab is referred to as a 'Floor Tab' and this is used to connect the wall with the floor of the dungeon.
Once you have cut out the appropriate tabs (as in the same length as the wall section) score down the middle line to create a fold in the tab.

Stage 4

You then need to stick them to the back of the wall section as shown.
Make sure all the tabs fold in the same direction. Once you have stuck the tabs down you can stick the wall front and back together. You only need to complete two of the walls in this way. The tabs at the ends of these two walls will be used to stick to the other two walls of the room.


Stage 5

You should end up with a wall section that looks the same as picture. Once you have completed the wall sections you can join them up to make the room.
Remember only two of the four wall sections need to have the wall tabs attached.




Stage 6

Once you have stuck all the walls together you will be left with a box like the one shown.
Fold the floor tabs so that they all point inwards.










Stage 7

To connect the walls to each other you will need to use the tabs. There are two pages of tabs included with the Dungeon. One is marked 'Wall Tabs', these are used to connect the walls of your dungeon together. They are all the same size which is the same height as the wall sections. You will need one for each corner where you intend to join two wall together. You can if you want to, not actually stick the floor down and therefore retain the ability
to fold away the dungeon rooms for easier storage or transportation.

Building the Stairs











Included in the Dungeon files is a staircase. This is very easy to put together. Just make sure you cut the stairs out as shown. Then starting at the top stick each of the stair tabs to the side walls. Lastly constructing the doors is just a simple matter of folding them over the wall section where you want them.

The Finished Dungeon

And there you have it, a quick and easy dungeon. Using the various tabs and cutting the wall sections to the length you want. You can make any size dungeon. You can use these instructions to build the Victorian cellar as well since it's exactly the same only with a different wall and floor texture.
