•

"Hostility Index":A “Hostility” Index within the game determines gameplay experience and type of quests the players receive. Higher “Hostility” Index will make battles harder and quests more conflict-oriented.

•

“Hostility” Index can be increased by the player in the following ways:i) Defeating enemies, instead of escaping/retreatingii) Choices you make during NPC interactions (i.e., if you decide to reply more aggressively, sabotage quests, or turn them into creatures for your collection)

•

Game Modes: The game can be played in either “Cozy Mode” or “Adventure Mode”, offering different quests and gaming experiences.

•

“Cozy Mode“ involves optional combat, immersing the player in a peaceful, day-to-day lifestyle gameplay. Boss Battles are optional and can be replaced with a no-combat quest! There is a limit to how high the “Hostility” Index can get.

•

“Adventure Mode“ is the standard game experience filled with a combination action, exploration, and wholesomeness. If playing with the adventure game mode on, make sure to upgrade your weapon and beware of Monsters! Some may appear harmless, but they do indeed inflict damage. Never let your guard down during the adventure mode!

•

Team Composition: A “full team” in this game refers to recruiting all 5 characters. You can recruit and/or remove teammates. Should you recruit all 5 characters for a full team? Not so fast!

•

Full Team Pros: Continuous gameplay, no downtime! Switch seamlessly between characters during gaming. Send low-health characters back “home” for recovery and continue playing with a different character. Utilize a larger roster of characters to gain a tactical advantage in combat.

•

Full Team Cons: Some storylines won’t be uncovered! Not everything is sunshine and rainbows in this game! Despite camaraderie within team characters, underlying interspecies tensions may be prevalent. High interspecies tension (due to high "Hostility Index") may restrict access to certain areas with certain team/character combinations

Optional Pre-Written Storyline Included

Players can create their own storyline within the game, but there is also an optional pre-written storyline included, providing an easy "goal" for players if they want it:

A dark force has corrupted the Magic Spellbook of the late Archmage, putting the lands' magic secrets at risk. As a student of the Magic Academy, it's your duty to restore the Magic Spellbook by finding seven key orbs to unlock the "Guardians", small fairy dragons who can eliminate the corrupting dark matter. But alas, why the rush? Spend some time exploring the islands filled with cute creatures, build up your inventory with both useful and eye-catching items, and recruit some playable team members!
