The Grail, or sometimes referred as ultimate artifact, is an object that is typically hidden somewhere on the ground of Adventure Map. In order to recover the Grail, a hero must dig it out of the ground. Only one Grail may be hidden in the Adventure Map. However, it is also possible for a mapmaker to set hero or several heroes to carry the Grail in their backpack.

When the Grail is buried into the ground, clues to its location can be found at obelisks. Every obelisk heroes visit reveals a part of the Puzzle Map, which shows (marked with X) the location of the Grail.

An object that is hidden on the adventure map. When a hero finds an Obelisk it reveals a piece of a puzzle map. When the map is complete, sometimes before, there will be an X marking the spot where a hero should dig; you don't need to see the X to dig it up, however (the grail usually tends to be somewhere in the middle of the puzzle map). To dig, a hero cannot have moved during his/her turn. Beware! The AI at high levels will often be able to find the Grail's general location and start digging even if only ~1/3rd of the puzzle map is completed!

When the Grail is taken to a town, a structure specific to that town will be built, and the town cannot build another building that day, though the grail building can be built even if you've already built a normal building in that town that day. The primary bonuses that all towns get are an extra 5000 gold and 50% additional creature growth.

Notes

  • If the hero carrying the Grail Retreats, Surrenders or is defeated in battle, the Grail is lost forever.
  • If the map has no obelisks, it is completly impossible to find the grail (even if every single block on the map is dug on). Also, using "nwcoracle", a cheat that reveals the puzzle map, will have no effect and the puzzle will not show anything.
