Description

Here be traps and treasures, monsters and magic.

Get ready to battle monsters, crawl dungeons and hoard treasures! The miles of challenge and mystery lie before you. Will you survive the legendary Path of Adventure?

Text-based
This is a game of words and choices. Take part in a fantasy narrative and decide how you want to act. Will you explore the ancient ruins? When to use magic? And what to buy from the merchant?

Gameplay first
But don’t let the text fool you – this is a true game! Inspired by both classic D&D and modern RPG’s, it features:
- Turn-based combat
- Procedurally generated dungeons
- Permadeath
- Loads of weapons, items and monsters
- 6 unique playable characters

Easy to learn, hard to master
Never played a game like this before? No problem! Just start with the tutorial and continue your way. But beware: this game is a real challenge and requires wits and tactics to win!

Free to play
This game is free to play, and free to win. The only in-app-purchases are Resurrects and Undos. They are handy, but completely optional.

Accessible
Path of Adventure is optimized for screen readers; thanks to the help and support from the community of visually impaired players.

This game

I played this game for hours in my past time, though I never fully completed it, always dying on the giant, hydra or dragon. It was on my last attempt that I got within 1 hit of killing the giant. I had the buckler, dwarf armour, wizard hat, just about every item. My sabre broke and I was left with the mace of doom. It had a 50% chance of hitting. Every time I swung it, it missed, I used every healing item in my inventory until my tower shield broke. I had 2 HP left, I swung the mace, it missed, the giant killed me. I have never felt so angry in my entire life. Then you know what happens next? The message. "You know, dying isn't that bad". I threw my phone across the room, shattering it and punch a hole in my wall. I wanted to commit a genocide, all because of that message. All in all, great game would recommend 5 stars. Please get rid of the death message.

Alright, point taken :D Sorry for that particular experience, but thanks for the review!

smart idea, bad coding ,

THAT MERCHANT

Okay so I love this game, it really is amazing, but there is one big issue that I have with that merchant. I few times now I have bought something from him, gone on to my inventory and sold it back to him.

The worst one happened just now, before I wrote this review, when I realised I was poisoned and on low health (while trading with the merchant) and I went onto my inventory to use an elexir of growth. I felt my soul leave my body.

This hasn’t been updated in a while, but I think that when trading with the merchant there should be both a ‘use’ button AND a ‘sell’ button on your inventory. Otherwise, great game and extremely fun.

Looking forward to more!

Great text-based game, with an almost Pratchet style humour mixed in.
Difficult, but not impossible.
Monetization isn’t forced on you.

A few grammatical errors which detract from the experience the first time, and then it gets kind of repetitive, given that it’s the exact same story for each of the characters. I’d definitely love to see more adventures in the future.
