GAMEPLAY
Eldfall Chronicles: Northern Wind offers a versatile gaming experience with cooperative and solo modes, with the option to engage in one-off pvp battles. This is a stand-alone expansion that introduces the dungeon-crawl setting, expanding the Eldfall Chronicles series.
Each player assumes the role of a hero who survived a brutal ambush in the treacherous northern mountains, burdened with the fate of the Empire. Guided by the Quest Map, the heroes embark on a race against time, aiming to reach the summit of Mt. Byōdō before the Blood Moon rises and breaks the seal holding back the demonic Oni... and something worse.
Throughout their journey, the heroes confront challenging quests, formidable enemies, and multi-stage bosses that stand between them and the impending calamity. The quests represent cinematic battles, featuring modular tile-based movement and dynamic action-reaction mechanics to keep all players engaged at all times. Enemies react to the heroes' actions and take their own turns against the players, accompanied by unpredictable Instance cards that can alter the situation.
During the travels, you
level your heroes if they have enough
Valor (“experience points”), equip them with
new items found on the way,
unlock synergies between the heroes, and more. The treacherous mountain path is filled with
everchanging paths and
exciting and ominous Events, offering opportunities for gaining Valor, testing wits, and presenting difficult decisions. Experience many fun and engaging mechanics unique to this dungeon-crawler!
