It’s by far the part of the game I like the least… there’s always a couple of gold nuggets I can’t seem to find. It’s boring, and also frustrating to see my food supply dwindle.

I’ve noticed that using a teleport spell will take you to, or very near, an unexplored area. If I feel like I’ve looked everywhere that shows signs of being a false wall then I’ll use a teleport spell and that solves it for me. Same goes for finding secret rooms in fully explored levels if I have a lot of unused teleportation spells.
Gold and hidden rooms are never contained deep into walls, there’s no reason to dig more than 1 or 2 tiles out from a room in search of secrets.
Knowing this, I was able to find the gold I needed fairly quickly. Thanks!
From my experience I’d check the areas surrounded by open caves first with at least a 3x3 area available not explored/mined yet
Edit: to clarify, a 5x5 area to include the walls of the smallest area extra gold could be found in
I always keep a magic mapping scroll for the cave, saves a lot of effort.
Just played the part myself rn. It is really annoying to see the food getting less and less :/
Thanks all for the tips! I’ll make sure to try them out.
