Dice and gameplay

For those who haven’t played this type of game, the combat can be a bit confusing. To start, click on the bad guys to start the battle. This is when things get complicated, albeit behind the scenes.

Instead of getting instant success with your attack, the game rolls virtual dice for you. And just like in a real tabletop RPG, the results of these roles determine whether your attack is a success or a failure.

It’s the same type of combat you’ll find in Knights of the Old Republic and its sequel, and you get used to it very quickly. However, for someone who has rolled a D20 in their life, your first game or two might come as a surprise!

By the way, combat can be as “active” or “passive” as you like. You can give each character individual instructions during battle or assign them a behavior that determines how they play. This helps make even the smallest encounters feel meaningful.
