Personally, I feel that if it can be done without too much difficulty, you might consider adding a second mode of play to the game at a later time. So you could have classic Monty with the monsters and things in fixed locations, then another mode where it's a bit more random. Or perhaps the randomization could come into play on higher experience levels. It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you with no place to go. J.D.
