How combat works
How tasks turn into attacks
Monsters attack over time during an encounter. Complete tasks to fight back or prepare several hero attacks in advance. Experience, gold, and loot come from defeated enemies.
How your hero gets stronger
Attack
Levels and weapons raise damage.
Defense
Shields and furniture raise defense.
Health
Maximum health grows with your level.
Rewards
Bonuses increase the experience and gold you earn.
Monsters attack on a timer
A monster strikes immediately if the hero has no task attacks ready, then continues on its timer—even while the app is closed. Use a one-hour lunch pause or disable enemy attacks for a calmer game.
What happens when the hero dies
Death returns the hero home and costs some experience plus 40% of carried gold.
Loot and merchants
Defeat monsters, collect equipment and materials, then trade with the blacksmith, alchemist, and provisions merchant. Purchased furniture remains yours and can be placed again for free.
Continue where you left off
Levels have different monsters, scenery, music, day, and night. The game restores your location, keeps progress locally, and supports save export. See the full feature list.
