ES upgrades the Engage to the Engage Plus! Or Engage+, either works. This nifty upgrade adds adaptive programming and smart material components, so similar to the Blood-Starved Beast, if its attack is involved with killing an enemy it gets an upgrade.

Mostly it was to help we avoid getting stuck of the trip through the piping took several updates, seems to be just another case of me overpowering. Oh well, I can always smack people with it!
Well this is a predicament. Do I pull the lever and most likely trigger whatever trap guards the treasure chest or journey into the dark sewer depths, decisions decisions.
...or I would be thinking that if I didn't just pull the lever. Sure I have no doubt this treasure chest is trapped and potentially empty but you never know if I'll find something useful. (Free Action)
Of course before I go by the opened bars I use my Player power to create this simple shape. Large enough for me to be able to crawl through, long enough to stretch across the opening the bars would leave, and somewhat sturdy. A simple item hopefully tailored perfectly to avoid being locked inside with the treasure chest when I place it where the bars used to be. (x1)

Looking down at the now broken hammer I let out a sigh. 'Well bugger, We're going to need something a bit more heavy duty to bash this wall.' I rub my right arm a bit as it feels rather strained from the exertion of strength I used when trying to breakdown the wall.
'Hmm, I'll take a break until my arm no longer feels stiff.' With that I sit down on a bench and think about what to do. 'Lets see, Most everyone over here is moving into the basement at this time. Over at the B cells they are finding that the vents connect them together which may allow them to get out. Well all but B-3 at the moment. Odd that it sort of mirrors the broken walls over at our side.' I rub my mustache in thought as I wonder why that is.
Action:
Deciding to dismiss it for now I turn my mind towards DUNGEONSCAPE. 'Well while I'm resting I might as well work on the Maze some more.' With that I mentally start focusing adding to the Maze. Adding in more hallways that lead to nowhere and I work on making the maze even more confusing for enemies inside it by making it so that walls will when out of sight rise up or lower into the ground as well as making the walls self cleaning so if an enemy tries marking down which way they went before then they won't be able to do that due to the walls cleaning it off, Thus making it far more likely for the enemy to stay lost in the maze.
After that I focus on of quality of life improvements for our defenders, Unfortunately I already used a good deal of power so I opted to build a barracks with pretty comfy beds for them.
Hope/Free action:
'Things are looking up for us. The DUNGEONSCAPE is still well under control and FlamingFlapjacks is working on freeing up more of our power. Just need to hold out until then, Which I have no doubt that we will.' I think happily to myself.

Alright, let's do this. More hope! HOOOOPPPEEEE! I channel more hope, building defenses for the orb. Then I leap in, shoving down Shadows, and blasting apart the HOPE blocking things. My mind takes a big hit, but I soldier on, creating chains, which twirl around, locking down Shadows.
Rate of Orb deterioration slowed!
Rate of Orb deterioration slowed!
I spot the creature scuttling around in the dark. Well, best prepare for combat then.
I see that many of my cellmates are working on upgrading their weapons. Being that incendiaries are likely unsafe to use in such cramped underground quarters, I'll do some upgrading of my own. Firstly, I use what little player powers I have to enlarge my fork as much as I can. I clear part of the cell floor free of thatch, dab some hand sanitizer in the empty area, and light it on fire. Time for some armature blacksmithing. I heat the enlarged fork's four prongs up until they glow orange-hot, then I use lumps of stale bread as hammers and anvils to beat then into a circular shape tipped with sharp stabby points. I then alternate between heating the prongs in the fire and quenching them in the water bucket to temper and harden the metal. Lastly, I wrap some stale bread around the fork's shaft to give a better grip. I christen this new weapon the Tetradent of Stabbing!
It gives me HOPE that we can overcome the beasties in the passage.

The quiet watcher
Verified Old One
The Quiet Watcher opens his eyes and tries to move, puzzled at how he was still alive. He sits up, only to find himself in a straitjacket and manacles that pinned his hands shut. He starts struggling to get out of his restraints, HOPEful about his chances of getting out of this alive.
Breaking Bad - IV
DETERMINATION!
You begin making up a grand distraction! In the distance, you can hear large, metal feet begin to move in your general direction.
You open the treasure chest, as the zelda chest tune plays in the background. Inside is... IS... IS...!
A PICKAXE! You can use this to break loose dirt or stone! Or walls, albeit slowly. You and those near you can share this highly valuable tool.
In fact, you think you can see some loose dirt a bit further up in the tunnel... in the darkness... with that creature.
The Defender spawns! The weak shall be defended!
You HOPE so hard! So hard, that you accidentally use up all your power getting a little extra HOPE boost!
HOPE!
The Blood Starved Beast is now regenerating! Slowly. +10% health per turn. But combined with all its other amazing abilities...
You crawl to the edge of the ventilation system, above cells B1 and B2. You search tirelessly for some way, any way, to go further in thus general direction of the ventilation shafts! You don't find one, but you DO find something the people in cell B-2 missed, using your fresh aerial perspective... one The_Quiet_Watcher! Turns out he was with you, all along! Definitely! And he's here to help!
HOPE!! Keep in mind, hope actions are only worth HOPE/Whatever other thing you can think of, and can't be used to help out in the dungeonscape or anywhere else.
HOPE!
You create the Scratchspear generator! As long as one has access to this generator, you can make two scratchspears with only one action!
Investing in production capacity and industry? Apparently
HOPE!
"Left path" is so non-specific... I assume you mean in the mysterious dark room, since otherwise you would've said "holding cell", and the pathway to that room is generally left?
You drop down! It's a longer fall than you expected! Since you didn't do anything to cushion yourself, you land HARD, and black out for a few seconds. A new enemy has spawned in the Dungeonscape! The HWTMPTS fails to grab them.
You quickly recover from this minor error, and set about lighting the area as best as you can. This place is VERY dusty and grimy - its been abandoned for some time. In spite of that, there's a lot in here that looks important... you see a lot of machines that look like robots, but its too dark for you to get the complete picture of this room. Eventually, you stumble upon a locked door, as well as a sealed exit door that leads out to the main hallway.
Looking back up, the ventilation opening is a WAYS up there. You could get back up, but you'd need multiple actions to do so at your current Player power. For now, there's no easy retreat back...
Enemies within the house now have a 50% chance not to find a key! Because they're too busy getting bonked on all the furniture!
You create the STEAK KNIFE! Its useful for stabbing things! And its pretty durable, too! Probably does more damage than the sanitary sizzler, at the cost of losing the burning effect. This creation can be replicated for an action, but only by people with access to the cutlery.
You make the Baker's Defense, named by you! It serves as fairly functional armor against attack. Hmm... does bread conduct electricity?
HOPE!
Assassin Bot summoned! With slightly modified mechanics for simplicity; it does a lot of damage but only attacks when the enemy won't target it AND will live to be able to attack it.
HOPE!
HOPE!
You design a pickaxe, and hit the bars with all your might! The pickaxe shatters into a thousand tiny pieces! You jump back in time to not get hurt, but it looks like it barely dented the bars at all...
As you land your jump, you feel the ground shift a little under your feet. Huh?
DETERMINATION!
You upgrade to the Flame Purger! It's a Sanity Sizzler, but renamed.
You create some basic rope! This has a vast number of different uses.
HOPE??
You and Arsenical venture forward! You're at the centerpoint of the tunnel, now... though its dark, Arsenical has his lantern, and you have your sanity! Looking around, you see that the tunnel goes even deeper, there's some loose dirt on the ceiling, and in front of you... is the enemy!
HOPE!
You make the Supersonic Shooter impossible to turn against you. Whenever it's in the hands of an evildoer, it'll shut down automatically. Great! Of course, no matter how evil you become, you've excluded yourself from the regular evildoer tests.
Thus far, the other entities have been automatically clearing out of the way so the Blood-Starved Beast can kill-steal. But now, it's no longer necessary! The Blood-Starved Beast now has Engage+! This is going to be the buffest starving beast ever.
You flip the lever to release the bars, walk over, and set down a thing to ensure the bars don't just lock back up!
...Only, the bars aren't really your concern. Several pairs of glowing eyes stare at you from the darkness...
HOPE!
DELUSION! Oh, sorry, that was just what you got for thinking hope alone would be enough. HOPE!
You dig a trench! New enemies will need to build a bridge to get across! Ultimately, though, this can only ever delay newcomers...
The maze has been somewhat upgraded! Now, there's a 10% chance new entrants to the dungeon will get lost in the maze, permanently eliminating them! Also, the defenders appreciate having beds, though considering the whole "sleep is death" thing, maybe its a smidge tasteless.
HOPE! The Orb now has slightly better defenses! It's at 120% health!
You create the TETRADENT OF STABBING! It looks like it does less damage than the Scratchspear, but it's more durable - and it, too, can be thrown! Attack from a distance with this delightful trident thing!
As usual, allies can replicate this as long as they have access to forks.
HOPE! That's it! You have enough hope! The HOPE wall now automatically upgrades the attack of stuff put on it, like ballistae!
HOPE!
Ah, how could you forget yourself? You finally wake up, a little later than the others, ready and waiting to return to the land of the living!
Currently, you're in Cell B-2. You have access to the ventilation system for getting around - that's the little grey lines on the map.
---------
Those in the combo-cell of A1, 2, and 3, hear the steps of a guard draw near. Crusher's firing is luring the guard over! The guard will arrive 2 turns from now.
In the tunnel beneath Cells A-3, A-4, and beneath who knows what else, Ranger_Strider finds himself staring down the face of some old robot. At one point, it was gleaming white, but a long time in this tunnel has made it look brown and dirty. At some point, this thing was likely sent down into the tunnel. It's clearly half-broken, probably too half-broken to communicate with any larger prison network... but it still wants to adhere to its original purpose. It begins creeping towards Ranger_Strider, waving a baton that still manages to crackle with electricity... one hit from that thing will put you right to sleep!
Meanwhile, within the sewers, CaptainNZZZ is facing a much worse dillema. He has no less than three enemies to deal with, and he's all alone. In addition to another old, damp robot, he's also dealing with two sentry robots. The sentry robots have small guns that look like they pack a punch, but the guns are still weaker than the dilapidated robot's baton.
Out of the corner eye, CaptainNZZZ spies... is that a Shadow Player? No time to examine it closely right now...
----------
THE DUNGEONSCAPE:
Karpinsky's fall attracted an aggravating archer! They're like annoying archers, but stronger!
All your allies focus their fire on the Medium Gobblebeast, managing to slay it! The Road Runner finishes charging its insta-kill attack, and uses it on the new Aggravating Archer, slaying it! For now, the area immediately in front of your defenses is cleared!
FlamingFlapjacks orb attracts 2 new enemies to the field... another Dark Cleric, and an Aggravating Archer! They manage to get through the maze, but get stopped by the trench! Within the House with Too Many Places to Search, both of the enemies inside get lucky and find a key!
The defenses outside of your main line of allies are now so tough, they deserve their own section... "Outer Defenses"! This will classify all defenses that can delay or stop enemies before they get anywhere near you!
-----------
You've already managed to fight a fairly large number of foes in the Dungeonscape. You've cleared the easy initial waves, but now, they're going to start getting tougher. HOPE you're prepared enough.

Huh, there's a guard. What now?
We have a teammate with a gun that can supposedly instantly kill through walls. He just needs to know where the target is.
What am I, Widowmaker?
You have Starsight.
Got it. One Widowmaker ult, coming up.
Action: I generate an impotent telekinetic field out to a hundred feet of range. It's not powerful enough to actually do anythng, but I don't need to do anything with it. As telekinesis is basically touching and manipulating objects from afar, channeling telekinesis allows me to essentially "feel" the nature of the objects I touch with it. Thus, I now know the physical location of the guard, as well as the composition of the guard's body and equipment (to the point where I can probably figure out what weapons he's equipped with). This may also uncover hidden rooms that happen to be near my cell, and maybe if I can reach long enough I can sense what's in the C-cells.
I then exploit the telepathic comms network to send the guard's location data to every other Player, highlighting him in red for everyone's convenience.
Then, to get him to approach faster, I use my fake!Weath Ray to fire a red beam into his face, taunting him with "Ha! I just deleted the memories of your childhood! I know where you are, you don't have anywhere to run, come over here and surrender your weapons, or I'll eliminate the rest of your memory."
Krill13, I've marked the target. I'll give you a cue as soon as he moves next to our cell doors, and then you need to snipe him.
Free Action: I channel more DETERMINATION.

Yoink!
Action 1: I enhance the maze with the magic spell of The Illusion Spell of Meaningless Directions! This makes so that the Maze gains illusions that makes the right side of the Maze become the left side of the Maze, and switches back every (random from 1 to 10 seconds), so you can't just right hand rule this maze, you'll get lost! Every 100 seconds up and down is switched, and finally West, East, North, and South suddenly swap randomly every 400 seconds! There is no way you will ever keep a sense of direction, and will get endlessly lost in the maze in the Dungeonscape! It hurts trying to figure it out from just thinking about it, in reality people won't stand a chance!
HOPE!
Well done! I recommend someone creates an outer defense that does AoE damage to all entities stopped by the Outer Defenses.

1 action: I add various delaying mechanisms to the House, such as nets, pit traps, and swamps, to further reduce the chance of enemies in there finding keys.
ES recalls his sword. He's always had it outside of Player stuff, and he still has it on him now. He uses his action to increase its Relevancy, allowing him to use the dedicated weapon in the future a little without actually risking it breaking or doing nothing.
Action:
Eyowe gives a vocal sign of affirmation to Crusher's plan through the mental connection.
Eyowe stabilizes the Supersonic Sniper, making it so that using it does not break it or weaken it, not even a bit.
...you know? Just in case?
Hope:
He is REALLY putting a lot of hope on this thing.

Action 1: I take the spikes used to drive the bench into the wall from the bench, then go up into the ventilation.

Řehoř Urist looks at the people around him. Right, there's a guard coming. Since we're all getting out of here, how about you guys set the thatch in our cells on fire so he has trouble finding us? I'd do it myself, but I'm about to be busy with this Zapbot.
Time to go on the offensive! I cover up the Oilflasher's light with my hand, and run towards the Dilapidated Zapbot! When I get close I uncover the light and shine it directly into the Zapbot's already-blurry-from-age optics. While the Zapbot is blinded by the light and unable to aim his baton, I locate some gaps in the decaying outer plating and shove the Tetradent into that weakpoint.
I sure HOPE I win this.

Some Guy on the Internet
Weapon in hand, Kyle feels reassured. At least now, he's armed.
"Time to find a way outta this place... isn't there an escape tunnel beneath this cell?"
Action 1-
Kyle summons a pickaxe and begins to dig downwards, soon intercepting the escape tunnel beneath Cell
A4. From the other's view...
A young boy in a Star Wars tee bursts through the loose dirt and stabs a knife directly into the dilapidated bot beneath him. Although now covered in dirt, he whips the knife out and stands next to the players.
"Sorry to barge in! Need some help with this thing?"

Nope! I'm not equipped for a fight right yet!
Gah this is what I get for trying to be the loner, trapped in the sewer with a bunch of killer robots. This would be easy to deal with if the Temporal Guardian wasn't being a dick with the timing of its return but sadly I personally must deal with this mess.
Closing the bars with me inside and taking cover could be an emergency option if nothing else works but it's a truly desperate action. The bots could just pull the lever and I'd be lucky to have bought myself an update or so to cobble something together.
Other thing directly fighting that leaves me with communicating with that nearby Shadow Player or hoping the chest has something good in it. Well since I've already bothered to clear my path to the treasure chest I'll try that first, cue disappointment in 10.
First I need to slow those bots down if I want to last one enough to open that chest.
I slam my left palm into the sewer water at my feet I let out a pulse of Player Power. A weak pathetic shadow of its former self up still hopefully enough. I mean how much power does it really take to create waves?
And then the water erupts at my feet. I'd spawned as much water as I could right in front of me and that sudden increase of mass and pressure now follow a basic principle of water as the water seeks to reach unoccupied space. A nice AoE wave to sent everyone off their feet and somewhat batter them...maybe. Hopefully even if they aren't their guns and baton of sleep inducing zaps are affected by water such as the electrical charge dissipating into the water that now drips from it.
"I'll apologize for the wet feet hopefully friendly Shadowy Player if I make it out of this!" I shout, my voice distorted by my rebreather, as the upset water sends me backwards. Fortunately my equipment protects me from water damage since I can't afford to put any energy into making sure I'm unaffected by my actions. (x1)
