Fell & Sell Stuck? Every Known Fix (Patched & Workarounds)

First: update the game

Art Games Studio shipped two patches within hours of the August 26 launch. If Steam has not auto-updated you to 1.0.2 or later, most of the issues on this page are already fixed for you. Right-click the game in your Steam library → Properties → Updates to confirm.

”The dungeon has no way forward”

Status: fixed in 1.0.2. The official patch notes confirm the dungeon generator “sometimes blocked off passages, making it impossible to finish the level.” This was not you missing a hidden door — some layouts genuinely sealed themselves.

  • On 1.0.2+: layouts should always be completable. Doors you open now also stay open, so backtracking to find the real route is much easier.
  • If a floor still looks sealed: check for breakable props masking a passage (crates and furniture are destructible), then exit the run — your banked loot is safe, only carried items are at risk.

”My character froze after entering a new floor”

Status: fixed in 1.0.2. The notes describe exactly this: a bug that “would sometimes cause the player character to completely freeze after loading into a new dungeon floor.” Update; if a freeze still happens, force-quit via Task Manager and relaunch — then report it on the official Discord or Steam Discussions, which the developers read around the clock (their words, and their launch-day patch speed backs it up).

”My weapon disappeared when I picked something up”

Status: fixed in 1.0.2. Before the patch, switching from a heavier weapon to a lighter one with a full or overloaded inventory permanently destroyed the heavier weapon. Now any weapon that does not fit is dropped on the ground at your feet — look down before you leave the room.

”The sword in the stone won’t come out”

That one is (probably) not a bug — it is the Bloodstone Greatsword, the game’s most famous tease. No official unlock requirements exist yet; we track the confirmed facts and leading theories in the Bloodstone Greatsword guide.

Still stuck?

The developers actively read the official Discord (linked from their Steam announcements) and the Steam Discussions board — both were credited in the launch-day patch notes for bug reports. Include your floor number and what you were carrying; inventory-weight interactions caused several launch bugs, so that detail helps.
