Willistoria

Description

Willistoria is an indie RPG adventure game with a lot of gameplay.

Gameplay

This game has a free, open scenario. You basically explore the world and do whatever quests you want. It’s your own journey!

You will choose from 4 starting characters at the start. Note that this character will be your main character throughout the game and you will not be able to change him or her. He or she will have his or her own storyline on top your journey. For starters, I would recommend choosing Eldred as his early gameplay is a little more guided. If you want to push yourself, choose Lazarus. The 4 starting characters have very different characteristics. The description in-game gives you a rough idea. You will also be able recruit (and expel) other characters as you play the game.

If you want to know more about the in-game basics, talk to the informant. You can find him at any pub in any major town. He is dressed in mafia black and is the only non-playable character who wears sunglasses in the whole game. Similarly, whenever you are lost, just talk to the informant. He will lead you through the major storylines of your main character if your main character is strong enough.

Lastly, always talk to people in town. That’s how you find out information and trigger quests as your journey! Save your game frequently. You never know when you may get stuck or wiped out. If you complete the game, you are welcome to try out other starting characters. Take on the Cardinal Sentinels as a challenge! Have fun!

Tips:

• Try to recruit a few more characters and form a party of 4 to 5 people
before you take on quests at the start. Some characters can be recruited
straightaway, namely the starting characters and Cassara. You can find them
in the towns, and you can always expel them later via the pubs.

• Regular monsters grow stronger every 5 levels of your main character.
Quest bosses grow at every 10 levels of your main character and the difficulty grows by quite a vast amount. If you’re training up your characters for the boss, try not to let your main character go past level 10, 20, or 30; otherwise you’d be facing an even tougher boss instead. It will be capped past level 30.

• Note that regular monsters drop little gold. Do NOT just grind all the way.
You will find monsters getting too strong and you will not have enough gold
to keep up with the upgrades, guaranteed. Just train a little, defeat the
boss and clear your quest promptly because bosses and quest rewards give a
lot of gold! Do keep a look out for chests as they give significant gold too.

• Cardinal Sentinels are optional bosses, but if you manage to defeat them, you will have to option to fight a tougher version of the final boss using those runes they drop. They are give some rewards too. Cardinal Sentinels difficulty remain the same no matter what level your main character is.

• There is this puzzle in the depths of the desert, where you push boulders in a small room to get them all onto the switches, like a push box, “sokoban” game. The puzzle was lifted off from a Boxxle game puzzle. It’s actually a lot tougher than it looks.

• The caves are dark, and you may have trouble navigating. There is a torch that can be found in one of the towns. It will light up the area around you inside these caves.

• Some characters have affinity and vulnerability to certain elements. For example, Kandyl has an affinity to light element but vulnerability to dark element. This means that when she learns any light element magic, her damage will increase by 25%, and it applies to all her skills, spells and even basic attack! Also, she naturally takes half the damage from enemies’ light element attacks. However, she cannot learn dark element magic, and she naturally takes 50% more damage from enemies’ dark element attacks. Character’s element affinity and vulnerability can be found in their status page on the menu.

• You will take damage from the lava floor if you step on it unprotected. There is an item that can protect you from this heat damage, but you will need Raignald the treasure hunter to find it.

• Be EXTRA careful with the assassination quest in Sunmire! People in town will give crucial pieces of information. You would want to stock up on your potions and stimulants before you start this quest.

Background

Monsters have always been at odds against humans. The existence of the Monster Dimension was a forbidden dimension filled with vile monster energies. Monster energies strengthen the monsters on Earth, making them more aggressive and tougher to manage. It was sealed away in the past millennium. Humans then did what they could to secure their existence against monsters on Earth to date. Humans hunt monsters for food and materials, while monsters still prey on humans.

A global defense force, known as the Imperial, was formed to protect the world and provide assistance in times of need, and to keep monsters under control. And thus, humans try to strike a delicate balance in this natural ecosystem against monsters, while working hard on their own lives…
