A weak and naked adventurer, venturing into the world of Grimar, seeking for fame, lots of gold and power!
As a weak and naked adventurer, you venture into the world of Grimar, seeking fame, gold, and power. The gameplay primarily revolves around making binary choices between two options presented in various scenarios. These choices directly impact the progression of your story, as well as your character's fame, gold, and number of followers.
At the core of the gameplay is the choice-driven narrative. You'll frequently encounter decisions that range from helpful to malicious actions towards non-player characters. The consequences of each decision often remain unclear, encouraging you to carefully consider the potential outcomes before making your choice. Some decisions may lead to unexpected or humorous results down the line.
As you progress through the world, you'll encounter a variety of randomized events and encounters. These can include battles against enemies, interactions with NPCs, and special events that require you to draw from a deck of success/failure cards. The randomized nature of these encounters adds an element of unpredictability and replayability, as you may experience different scenarios and outcomes on subsequent playthroughs.
Combat is resolved through a tabletop-inspired RPG system, where you roll dice to determine the outcome of battles. Your character's strength, as well as any equipment or items you've acquired, directly affects your chances of defeating the enemy. This combat system adds a layer of strategy and risk-reward decision-making, as you must weigh your chances of success against the potential consequences of failure.
As you progress through the adventure, you'll accumulate fame, gold, and followers, which serve as the primary resources in the game. These resources can be used to purchase various items and upgrades, or even traded on the black market. While you can die during the course of the adventure, you are able to continue the game, retaining your accumulated resources and progress.
