Elven Curse

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

Embark on a unique RPG adventure as a skilled hunter trapped in a cursed forest. This isn't your typical RPG; it focuses on exploration, resource management, and strategic decision-making, rather than combat. The game features minimal button presses (3 at most, excluding the menu) for a streamlined experience.

The Story:

You, the village's best hunter, arrive at a national hunting tournament only to find the forest eerily deserted. The only clues are the remnants of other hunters' camps. Your journey to escape the "Elven Curse" begins, aided by a mysterious quarter-elf named Foria.

Gameplay Highlights:

• Character Creation: While character customization is limited, you can reroll stats to your liking before starting. Remember, stat increases upon leveling are only visible on the creation screen.

• Exploration: Navigate the forest by exploring unexplored areas. The success of each exploration attempt depends on your character's stats and the area's "fog depth." Running out of life force? Use poison or rare talismans to recover, or strategically retreat.

• Encounters: Wild animals, from wolves to frogs, will attack. Defeating them yields materials for trading. However, there's no traditional leveling up through combat. Battles are avoidable, requiring either skillful distance management or Foria's "flash" ball. If caught, you can either attempt to withdraw or use the flash ball.

• Cloak System: Craft a cloak from collected materials (branches, resin, leather) to enhance your abilities. Layering up to three cloaks increases their effect, but be warned – they can tear and become unusable.

• Simple, Yet Strategic: The game challenges your reflexes, strategic thinking, and a touch of luck. You'll collect materials, synthesize items, and manage resources. Preparation is key!

• Auto-Save: The game auto-saves, but not during battles. Save frequently through the base menu for reliable progress preservation.

What's New (Version 1.2):

• Bug fixes (including a fix for unexpected transitions to the character creation mode).
• Minor bug fixes and text corrections from previous versions.

Prepare for a unique and surprisingly engaging experience in this minimalist RPG. Escape the cursed forest if you can!
