Last week, a note was left in our weekly Maw liveblog about a player-made map of Caves Of Qud, the highly acclaimed sci-fi roguelike RPG that allows you to "chisel through layers of thousand-year-old civilizations", represented as 2D Dwarf Fortress-esque layouts. As a newcomer to the game, I was intrigued by the creator's mention that Caves Of Qud is technically 2,147,483,646 levels deep. I asked Brendy, "Is Caves Of Qud really 2,147,483,646 levels deep?" like a curious child inquiring about the existence of dog heaven. Brendy wasn't certain, so I reached out to one of the developers, Freehold Games co-founder Brian Bucklew. In short, the answer is yes, with some significant caveats. 10526
