Description:
Procedural roguelite RPG in a vast world
Unexplored 2 creates a vast, rich fantasy world for you to discover.
It has a cool twist on permadeath: your character may die, but the
world might persist. The game is an ambitious, procedural action-RPG
without grind, xp, or gold. Instead the story is all about your
choices and their consequences as history unfolds.
As the titular Wayfarer you take on the quest to destroy the Staff
of Yendor, for which you’ll have to traverse your world. Along the
way you’ll meet tribes, encounter magical creatures and explore
ancient ruins to discover mythical weapons and historic items.
When you die…
The game is challenging and you will die often. You may make a wrong
choice, take on one too many creatures, or forget to stock up on
food before traveling a desert. Whatever the reason, when your
character dies, they’re gone. No autosaving or quickloading.
However, you can choose to continue your adventures with a new
character in the same world, a few years later. Your new character
will witness the result of the choices your previous adventurer
made. You can leave items in a safe spot, ready for your next
Wayfarer to pick up and use.
The world ends
You can try to fulfill your quest to destroy the Staff of Yendor
with consecutive Wayfarers in the same world. However, when you die
during your final mission, your world ends. Permanently.
So, make sure you are prepared well and know everything there is to
know about the last and most dangerous part of your adventure.
When you fail, that world vanishes. The only thing left to do is to
generate a whole new world with its own history, and begin the quest
anew.
Key features
• Radical content generation: Ludomotion's radical approach to
content generation creates many layers of unique content, every time
a new world is generated.
• Generative storytelling: Though every Wayfarer's ultimate goal may
be similar, every hero will have their own world, story, and
encounters.
• Systemic depth: The game features many systems and you will
discover something new every time you play, even after hundreds of
hours of gameplay.
• Legacy system: Actions of your past heroes impact the fortunes of
those that follow in their footsteps. Use your legacy wisely to give
your successive adventurers greater hopes of completing their quest.
• Permadeath in a persistent world: When your hero dies, they stay
dead. But you can choose to return to the same world with a new
Wayfarer. Or, if you prefer, begin a new adventure in a completely
unexplored world.
• Unique presentation: The worlds in Unexplored 2 are presented in a
unique and beautiful art style, beyond what is conventionally
expected from a generative game. A stylish lighting system sets the
mood and adapts to the time of day and local weather conditions.
• Orchestral adaptive soundtrack: Your adventure is accompanied by
an orchestral, original soundtrack which reacts to the action and
decisions you make as a player.
