icon Wall destroying (or weakening) potion/bomb (0)  
When Beethro steps on the square with this potion (or bomb, which might be more fitting with the results), he is able to either destroy or weaken (i.e., make breakable) one wall square. This could open up a passage, release a creature, make a dead end to kill a serpent in, create a space to place a mimic, etc. I don't think this should work on creatures, unless there are ones that are made later that can walk on/through walls. (Oooh! Another idea!)

One option might be to make the "blast" bigger--a 2x2 square instead of just one square. The same rules would apply.

These should probably be restricted to be not usable on the perimeter wall of a room. Although, if there is nothing or if there is a wall on the other side, it won't do any good anyway. However, if you wanted to make really evil secret rooms, or an even more evil maze, this might be an option. When making a room with this potion, you can always make the perimeter wall one square thicker to dissuade that.

Game on,
