INCREASING A LEVEL

1. To increase your level you must first earn enough XP, usually by killed enemies but XP is also gained by performing tasks etc


2. From a fight XP is divided up by all those of the party that dealt damage, with an extra 2x for the party member that dealt the Killing Blow.


3. Once you have enough XP that actor will be healed but to actually increase your level, you must return to the arena and beat the challenger


4. Once you defeat the Challenger you gain a level, you also can increase one of your attribute points, plus also you gain 3 skill points


5. Click on the skill tab to bring up the Skill panel where you can have your party member learn or improve its skills.

CRAFTING

Only Catman has the ability to craft things, Spend Skillpoints in the Skill Talent Panel to unlock this ability.
To craft an item, First catman has to find the necessary Recipe and then learn it. Also Catman can only learn the Recipe if he's of a high enough Crafting level. Then once you have all the ingredients necessary for the recipe, Click on the Craft Item button to make it. With some Recipes you will create more of the Item if Catman is of a higher crafting level.

ASUNDERING etc

Whilst generally you can switch between party members at will, either with the mousewheel or clicking on their portraits or pressing F1-F2 etc. Every few minutes for about 30 seconds you will be forced to be a single random party member.
You will get a 5 second warning beforehand as the memory you control will start flashing the color of whoever they will turn into. Whilst being unable to Asunder/Change your party member will emanate a black fog. During this time you can't change party members or Asunder. Check the number at the center top of the screen for how much time remaining before you can change again, this also displays how much asundering time your party has.
Asundering time is gained by killing enemies, the stronger the enemy you kill the more time you gain. To asunder press the mouse middle button.

RANDOM STUFF

1. Each night a band of the faceless attack the main town, where the King lounges around, aiming to kill him, if he dies then thats gameover folks, yes there are some guards in the town. This band of the faceless gets stronger with each subsequent night. The town's guards should be able to handle the faceless for the first few nights, but unless you construct sufficient towers they will eventually break through and ultimately assassinate the King, he can dance a good jig but his kicking is purely for show. Now for some reason the faceless can't stand towers so will attack those first. You can also return to the town and help out in the defense each night


2. To heal someone with food or potion etc, drag the item over the portrait or the actual character in the game or onto its inventory sidebar, i.e. lots of ways. One thing this game ain't lacking, is bloody polish, now if there is some way you tried and it didn't work and you think it should of then message me, as its prolly either a broken mistake on my part, or I didn't think of it.


3. Each night at mightnight everything is healed a bit (enemies and all, but also townsfolk), but usually you have to eat food etc to heal, as I think this healing over time mechanic is terrible & lazy, though there are creatures in the game that do employ that mechanic but thats purely cause of the lore eg vampires, golems etc


4. Enemies don't scale to match you (as thats bad design) thus creature X will always be stronger than creature Y, One caveat - if a creature resurrects it does becomes more resiliant as in, it will have greater HP than it did


5. Speaking of which, there is a great wooden puppet 'The Reborner' roaming the land resurrecting the dead if they've been dead 3 days or longer, it travels from dead to dead 'reborning' thus there is the chance it takes 10 days to get around to reborning, or it never makes it at all, The reborner will attack your party on sight so I advise stay away, either scan or check the world map to see where it is. Luckily the reborner has a limited field of view so it prolly won't see you, provided you don't get too close.


6. To activate secondary actions, see the bottom of the screen, left click on the actions icon, it will either be activated instantly eg Catmans 'Crafting' ability or will only be used if you left click on something in the scene, eg Catman's 'Throwing Stars' some actions will drain the actor's mana, thus if you don't have enough mana then it won't work. The current active Buff/Action/Spell is indicated by having a small green Arrow underneath it's icon. Unlike Health, Mana will regenerate over time for the active Party member, Some items will increase this rate of replenishment.


7. Only one of the three main characters is able to resurrect other characters
