Kharé is not a place for the faint-hearted. Dubbed “Cityport of Traps”, this cityport appears like a deadly maze, where every street corner can be the end for your journey. In the game Sorcery! 2, the boundary between a hero and an anonymous corpse is strangely fragile. I once lost a whole hour just to consider whether to go down the foul sewers or gamble my life on a strange ship, and that is exactly the intense attraction that Steve Jackson and Inkle bring. This is not simply a book, but a living world, where every line of text transforms according to the breath of the player.
DYNAMIC INTERACTIVE STORYTELLING
The game takes the concept of “role-playing” to a new height with a massive content warehouse, surpassing all limits of traditional interactive novels. Every decision you make, even the smallest, is remembered by the system and weaves a unique script for you alone.
- Hand-drawn 3D map: Players are free to map out the movement route on an extremely detailed hand-drawn city map, allowing you to penetrate deep inside buildings or explore dark corners.
- Diverse gender options: You have the full right to choose to embody a male or female hero, bringing different perspectives and social interaction experiences in the heart of Kharé city.
- Massive branching paths: With more than 300,000 words and 10,000 different choices, each replay is a fresh journey with outcomes that never overlap.
STRATEGIC COMBAT AND MAGIC
Don’t think that just reading is enough to win, because the game requires a sharp strategic mindset to survive against more than 30 types of fierce monsters. The combat and magic system in this part has been significantly upgraded, creating intense mind-battles to the point of suffocation.
- Unique touch-based magic: The 3D spell-casting system allows you to perform more than 48 different types of spells, each supporting spell will directly steer the story in strange and unexpected directions.
- Tactical battle system: The combat mechanism describes action in real-time based on the skills of the player, forcing you to read your opponent to deliver accurate strikes or defense.
- Engaging mini games: Besides fighting, you can also try your luck with Swindlestones — a gambling game characteristic of the locals to earn money or collect precious information.
