Your energy bar is shown on the left and mana will be shown on the right as
soon as you have activated a spell.
If you dive you will see an oxygen bar to the right of your energy bar. First the
air will used and then your energy if both of these are used up you will drown.
INVENTORY AND EQUIPMENT
To equip, wear or use these items press CTRL and up.
To drop, press CTRL and down.
All items you pick up are sorted into the following 8 different categories:
WEAPONS (SHORT AND LONG-RANGE)
• You will find enough of these - 130 different types to be exact. To be able
to use close-combat weapons you need a certain amount of strength,
which is shown in the description in your inventory.
• For long-range weapons you need dexterity.
• The most powerful weapon will always be shown first in your inventory.
ARMOR
• Although you are bound to find a better suit of armor later you should put
on the one you have for the moment – every little helps. The best suit is
always shown first in your inventory.
• Put it on using CTRL and up.
MAGIC
• Magical documents and runes are kept here. Equip them using the same
keys as for the weapons. You can also use their hot-keys, which are 4-9.
At the start of the game don’t try to be adventurous.
You’re just not good enough yet to start fights with most of the creatures you
will come across. It’s a good idea to head for the Old Camp to get a feel for the
game and the controls.
The monsters will still be there when you get back. And maybe you’ll have
gained some more experience by then!
If you meet people along the way speak to them. Try not to equip your
weapon unless it is absolutely necessary. It is always taken seriously.
DEATH
If you die you can load a saved game from the list. Watch the red bar on the
left of your screen when this is empty you’re dead.
UNCONSCIOUSNESS
You will find out during the game that you will run into a lot of problems if
you go around killing people. Beat ‘em up good and rob ‘em and leave it at
that they’ll have learnt their lesson. If you loose a fight with another person
they will leave you unconscious - as long as he’s not your sworn enemy then
he’ll prefer to see you dead, as I’m sure you would feel the same way about
him.
If your enemy is lying unconscious in front of you and you have him in focus,
press space to exit combat mode and look through his pockets with the CRTL
and arrow keys.
SCREEN
The enemy you are focused on has an energy bar shown above his name. You
can change the focused enemy by turning or by using CTRL and the left and
right arrow keys.
