Gameplay
Your first major decision is selecting a party from pregenerated characters with different classes and abilities. Fighters, spellcasters, and other specialists give the group different ways to approach danger. During exploration, you speak with people, investigate locations, and gather information that moves the quest forward. Equipment and spells help prepare the party for the opponents ahead. Combat proceeds by turns, letting you choose where a character moves and which action to take. Positioning matters because reaching an enemy, keeping a vulnerable character safe, and finding room for a spell are separate concerns. Health and limited spell use connect each battle to the next part of the journey. Winning encounters develops the party and makes it better able to handle more demanding opposition. The three views distinguish long-distance travel, local investigation, and tactical fighting. Together they make the adventure a cycle of following leads, preparing the group, and resolving battles through character choices and placement.
