Elven Curse Rate : 3.8

Escape the Cursed Forest: A Simple, Non-Combat RPG

Embark on a unique RPG adventure as you, the village's best hunter, attempt to escape a cursed forest. This non-combat game focuses on exploration, resource management, and strategic decision-making, rather than traditional battles.

The Mystery Begins:

The prologue plunges you into the eerie silence of a deserted hunter's tournament site. Gone are your fellow competitors, leaving only unsettling clues and the unsettling realization that you're hopelessly lost. The forest itself seems to shift and change, defying your sense of direction. You're faced with the unsettling reality of the "Elven Curse."

Gameplay Highlights:

• Simple Controls: Navigate the game using a maximum of three buttons, making gameplay accessible and intuitive.
• Character Creation: While character customization is limited, you can reroll your stats until you're satisfied before the adventure begins. Remember, stat increases during leveling are only visible on this screen.
• Foria, the Quarter-Elf: This mysterious child-like companion secretly assists your escape using the forest's ancient spirits.
• Exploration and Resource Management: Uncover unexplored areas to progress. The success of your exploration is determined by your character's stats and the "fog depth" of each area. Manage your life force carefully, using poison and rare talismans strategically.
• Encounters with Beasts: While ferocious beasts roam the forest, combat is optional. Maintain distance to attack with your bow and arrow, or use wound medicine to heal. If caught, choose between a risky withdrawal or a guaranteed escape using a "flash" ball.
• Cloak System: Craft a mysterious cloak using gathered materials. Layered up to three times, it enhances your abilities and may even restore vitality. However, remember that your cloak can be damaged and eventually tear.
• Skill Selection: Choose one skill from a random selection to enhance your character's capabilities.
• Auto-Save: The game features an auto-save system, but saving doesn't occur during battles. For reliable saves, exit to the base menu before closing the app.

What Sets This Game Apart:

This isn't your typical RPG. It emphasizes resourcefulness, strategic thinking, and a touch of luck over brute force. It's a game about the journey, the preparation, and the clever use of available resources to overcome the challenges of the cursed forest.
