update details
Balrum allows gamers to experience all the difficulties of survival in a forest filled with monsters. According to the initial story, the main character left his home village and began to live away from everyone. However, several years ago, all the residents moved to the Dark Forest. The character always knew that something bad and embittered was revealed in the thicket, but he could not even think that he would have to engage in battle with creatures in order to protect ordinary people.
Despite the main plot, in which the player must unravel the mysteries and secrets of the forest, you will also need to take care of your hero. To begin with, Balrum suggests creating a character, but at the same time choosing not only his appearance, but also his skills and abilities. For example, you can customize your predisposition to fencing and wielding melee weapons, or improve your archery skills, which will help you out when trying to get food. The gamer needs to explore the map, finding all sorts of useful artifacts, as well as educational manuscripts and masters of a particular craft that could help gain skills. This will help create new weapons and household items, a variety of tools. The game has a crafting system that allows you to make completely new ammunition from scratch.
In addition to tactical turn-based combat, you should also take care of supplies. Next to the health scale there are indicators such as hunger and thirst, which greatly affect the performance of the main character. The gamer will have to go hunting to get some meat, filter the water to avoid poisoning, and also build his own farm with a vegetable garden. Such a system will significantly diversify constant battles with enemies.
