About the game
The Path of the Adventurers is a combat-based exploration game for 1 to 4 players, where a group of adventurers will fight their way through dangerous locations to defeat the Dark Lords who are causing distress in the kingdom. The adventurers will improve their capabilities with weapons and items. With each battle, they will also learn new skills to face the enemy bosses and defeat the Dark Lords. The path will be created throughout the game and will be different each time you play, since it’s generated randomly. Each location you visit has different treasures, sets of legendary items including weapons and armors with significantly more powerful than standard items. Get all the legendary sets from the different locations and your adventurers will be virtually invincible. Configure your character with equipment that better suits your playing style. Each adventurer is unique, with strengths and weaknesses that must be complemented by the rest of the group to succeed in the adventure. Get ready for battle and dwell into the Path of the Adventurers! —description from the publisher
