For Adventurer, get the shield upgrade if you can. That way you can just stand beside the boss and wail on him. It makes every boss fight real easy. If you can't, only attack the boss when he's just finished attacking. Haha, I had the same feeling. I don't even think I made it past the first floor on my first attempt (stealthy foes and mages don't go well together.) Yes, there's 9.
I preferred the Spellsword over the Adventurer simply because of his better spells, dash, and stunning charge attack. The Adventurer isn't all too great with large mobs. He's really good with a shield though.
Kepa, please change the adventurer in some way. What about making his power attack (hold down) different from the warrior and spellsword? Why would I choose the adventurer over the warrior and spellsword? He seems to be the weakest and most boring character. The warrior, spellsword and the adventurer seem too similar imo.
There is just one thing that is really really REEEALLY bothering me: Why oh WHY can't I shoot in all directions when enemies can? Four directions (player) versus all directions (enemies) is an annoying disadvantage that's not making ANY sense to me... It shouldn't be that hard to add a few more sprites! It's so frustrating cause I LOVE everything else about this game... PLEASE make this happen!
Adventurer seems a bit of a wasted character, but spellsword and warrior are not similar at all!! Apart from being male characters with swords! Spellsword is hands down my fave character, his dash is so much more useful than the shield! Just wish I hadn't piled so many coins into the warrior!!
Quick question on the hats situation (if there is one) ... I've only managed to get to the first boss/5th floor on mines, though multiple times with various characters, and i'm yet to find a hat. Is that normal?
Also, wanted to say a big thanks to Kepa and the rest of Rocketcat Games for making this quality game. An absolute bargain at £2.99! Thing is, i've bought so many games down the ios years (since 2009) and it's just those special few that keep me coming back. Super Crate Box is an all time fave and in a strange way, Wayward Souls has that 'one more go' addiction too! The gameplay is simple and yet the gameplay is tough. Every hit you take can be critical to your chances of progression, and i love that. I love that the combat is so satisfying yet simple, and it's about learning the intricasies of the enemies attack patterns. Thanks for many hours of fun to come! Please don't make it easier, games shouldn't have easy modes. It's absurd to me that people would pay £50 for an xbox/ps4 game and then want to play through the levels on easy. The fun in gaming comes from sense of accomplishment. Games should be tough but doable, and Wayward Souls appears to convey that well. Keep up the excellent work, Rocketcat!
Just got the game and boy am I disappointed! Mostly because of the fact that the game isn't fitting my iPad 2 screen properly.. Everything is zoomed in, making it impossible to see anything, let alone using spells or even tapping the menus... (will post screenies later) Skimmed througt most of the pages here, but no luck.. It even seems like other iPad 2 players are not even experiencing anything alike... Edit: Full screen screenshots: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/llt36xitlw5glfi/nsM2uc7Dq5
Was finally able to beat the 2nd boss. Hooray! It felt so good to smash that sucker into pieces Wasn't that hard with 18 obsidian shields up otherwise it could be a tough fight. Need a break now and after that I'll try the Spellsword. Hope he's good!
No he is not , he is just a clone of rogue ( was hoping the developer to make a arrow hero , spear hero and a punch hero )
I don't understand. I reinstalled the game, got 1 hat within an hour, got another within the next hour which is okay, then after that I stopped getting hats. (keep in mind on my original save game, I haven't received ANY hats for 9 hours straight). Though I feel like 1 hour per hat is way too long. After a fresh reinstall and losing everything I was expecting to get it "fixed" but it doesn't look like it. What are the guaranteed hat chests looking like? I've never seen one obviously because I can't get any more hats. It's really bugging me. I've never had such a good game have such a problem that irritated me this much. The fact that I can't get another hat makes me want to quit even before beating the game.
Best roguelike action rpg I've ever played on any platform.The game is so addictive that I can't literally stop playing....Exceptional.My goty till now.
Just Downloaded and gave it a shot. Reminds me if the old snes days. Just for clarity. Played first round as the base paladin with no choice. Got to,some wizard who spawned endless baddies. Died and now picked a new hero the warrior. But I didn't start In the forest like the paladin did. Was that just the intro story or do all characters start in their own unique places
Few really solid sessions into this and hooked. Incredible game! Although it would be great to see a better death animation added in the future. Currently a bit of an anti climax when you die. Need some drama
How the hell do you beat the second dungeon? (With warrior) The guys with the shields and swords keep deflecting my attacks, and I always get hit..
