I'm going to give you some great tips because why not. Magic is the way to go, you can carry a powerful weapon in one hand and a staff in the other and the sword basically turns into a projectile for your basic attacks. Restoration is awesome and you should capture creatures, they are busted and get more powerful throughout the game.heres the most busted strat you can use. There are summoner monsters after the 4th town, if you tame there summons before they die you get op creatures early.

Finally a great RPG with full controller support! I love games where you collect a bunch of stuff, can craft with it or sell off junk, has a day/night/time system for shops to open/close, plenty of quests to do, a ton of upgradability to your character, a neat mechanic for the card game, awesome graphics, I could go on. I love it.

😎 This game is great. I downloaded it from a less than reputable source at first and had fun but got super frustrated, because I wasn't playing correctly. Big mistake on my end. Decided to do the right thing and pay for it, now I'm having a blast. Just cleared the serpent pit and am so excited to see what else this behemoth of a game has to offer. Super stoked to start taming creatures. Shout out to everyone who worked on this game, the art, music, level design, they're all A plus. 🌠😏🥰
