巫师之子

So there we were, minding our own business in the forest. It was kinda idyllic, you know? Peace, happiness, harmony with nature, and OH YEAH, it was extra awesome because, get this, MY MOM IS A WITCH?! Well, I guess TECHnically she is, but she’s more like a Harry Potter witch than a creepy Witch Hazel type, ‘cause bless her heart, she always uses her powers for good. Anyway, she’s the best, but this is also exactly when things went wrong.See, all of a sudden the king's guards show up, all stuffy and businesslike, and they say they’re taking my mom to the castle, and there’s nothing I can do about it. I mean, I was totally just like, “yeah right, narcs” and I snuck my way right in, but now there’s all these enemies to defeat and items to use and pets to get, and that’s only the tip of the iceberg!Apparently, somewhere along the way, somebody else just straight up STOLE a goblin artifact, and now THEY’RE in the castle somewhere too, and the goblins are pissed so they’ve started attacking. Lucky for me, this is a co-op game as well, so I can get a friend to help me, but MAN! Goblin artifacts? Missing parents? A thief's agenda? I guess that’s just what happens when you're a...

A new world is created every time you start the game, so it's always fresh and interesting to exploreThe HeroesOne to four players can select one of seven heroes with different starting weapons, as well as Melee, Magic and Archery skill levels. Local co-op, LAN and online multiplayer mode are available. In the current Early Access version, six characters are already available: Knight (melee combat specialist, starts with armor that reduces damage) Sorceress (ranged magic attack, can create food to heal players) Druid (ranged magic attack, can add poison effect to any weapon) Pyromancer (shoot fireballs, immune to fire) Archer (master of bow and arrows, start with additional inventory slot) Skeleton Ranger (cannot eat nor drink, collects bones from fallen enemies and gets stronger) You can unlock characters by completing various quests in the game.Items, weapons and lootBoost your strength, magic and other abilities with new weapons, potions, scrolls and items you can discover on your adventure. Grab enemy weapons when they drop them or discover hidden treasure stashes. Here are some weapons and items already available:The game already has over 120 items and weapons with different effects. Many items have synergies. For example drinking a Gold Diet potion allows you to eat gold, but if you find an Appetite potion as well it will boost the effect and enable you to restore a lot of health. Voodoo Doll allows you to hurt enemies from a distance, but if you combine if with a high-damage item like a Meteor Staff or a Bomb it can be much more effective.Characters with good archery skills can combine different bows and arrows, for example:Hitting an enemy would freeze it for a while, but after that passes, he will also be slow and much easier to fight against. Saving special arrows for bosses and difficult enemies is a good strategy.PetsAdopt one of 26 different pet companions. Each has a different effect. The Penguin freezes enemies. The Ram knocks them down. The Bat attacks in the air. The Chicken shows you the path with least enemies. The Dog fetches hard to reach items and weapons. The Turtle acts as an unbeatable decoy and the Bird's feathers improve your archery skill. If you find a Wolf to lead the pack and keep them in order, you can adopt multiple pets at the same time.Always more to exploreThe game has permadeath. Once you die, you start a new game. A different world is created on each playthrough. The layout of the levels is different, there are different numbers and types of enemies; and different treasures and items sold in shops. There are many spells the characters can use, and archers have a wide assortment of special types of bows and arrows at their disposal. Because of this, each new game poses a new challenge. You will get a subset of weapons, items and enemies and might need to use a different strategy. Any two subsequent plays could be quite different.Various ways to complete levelsThere's a big boss at the end of each level. You can beat him up with a melee weapon, petrify him with Medusa Arrows, or use a magic scroll to simply skip the battle and run to the next level. There are shops that you can try to loot if you can beat the shopkeeper's armed friends. Enemies drop usable items and weapons often. For example, a Goblin Shaman has a voodoo doll which you can use to mark enemies and hurt them from a distance. You can even toss the doll into a campfire and set enemies on fire, or anything else you can think of. Once you obtain the Staff of the Dead, you can raise an army of undead servants to fight for you. Alternatively, you can defeat the king and take his scepter, allowing you to summon an army of armored guards to help you.Monsters and bossesThe final game will feature seven areas: forest, battlements, the keep, dungeon, catacombs, desert and the frozen mountain. Each area will have three or more specific bosses that randomly show up on different play-throughs.Each area also has a different set of enemies, separated into the following factions: Goblins King's Guards Thieves Undead (skeletons, zombies, vampires) Ice Mountain Clan Animals (wild boars you can ride, bugs that drop weapon upgrades, bats, hornets, etc.)Each faction has regular units and special ones that are bigger and harder to beat.
