Dungeon crawling
The game will be set within a contained area of a walled town centre with shops and characters that will have information on hidden areas or entire missions which involve exploring certain areas or simply retrieving a certain item. Game play will consist of statistic boosting role playing and may expand to involve elements of item crafting. Two player characters will be available allowing player to choose slower combatant (male) that does high damage, or faster combatant with multiple lighter attacks (female). This will also allow the player to continue if one PC perishes within the dungeon.
- The dungeon will have 5 entrance points, each will allow access to more difficult areas for higher level player characters.
- These will form as short cuts to each of 5 areas, covering 20+ levels.
- To proceed through the levels male PC will have to choose type of armour to become proficient in as well as weapon type from small, medium, and large swords, hammers, and axes.
- To proceed through the levels female PC will have to choose type of armour to become proficient in as well as weapon type from small, medium, and large swords, spears, and axes.
