Room 56: Diamond Mine
Room 56 is the Seven Dwarfs' underground diamond mine, accessible from the cavern entrance in room 55. The room features multiple animated dwarves working at the mine, with one dwarf standing by a bucket full of diamonds who serves as the primary NPC interaction. The player can return lost diamonds to the dwarves in exchange for a lantern, which is required for exploring other dark areas of the game.
