Gameplay
Guide your character through the world, talk to people in towns, and prepare for the enemies waiting outside safer areas. Combat takes place on the exploration screen: approaching and making contact with a foe triggers attacks rather than switching to a separate turn-based battle. The angle of approach and your current strength affect how safely you can handle these encounters. Defeating enemies supports character growth and provides resources for better equipment. Improving your gear and returning to recover health help make further travel possible. Town conversations provide direction, while paths through dangerous areas connect the different parts of the adventure. The overall pace alternates between gathering information, strengthening the hero, and pushing into the next stretch of the map. Because contact is part of attacking, simply running into everything can be costly when an opponent is stronger than expected.
